Fullback and special teams. He’s a mauler on special teams, which will work to his benefit. He’s also a pretty damned good lead blocker when he’s actually utilized.

I have no desire to go back to the 3 yards and a cloud of dust offense, but it’s still a shame that Tory Carter didn’t get to showcase his potential. Best of luck to a great Tiger!

Enforcer.

I feel like he could be a good LB

I agree. He was a hell of a fullback. Tough as nails and could blow up people. Would have loved to have seen him at LB (if he could have made the switch as a freshman or maybe just have been recruited as a LB). By the time we switched to an offense that doesn't use a FB it was to late in his career to make that kind of move. He moved pretty good, looked strong, and seemed to love to knock the crap out of people and was good at doing that.
