Why hasn't he gotten playing time? I've gone to the last 2 spring games and both times he looked like the most impressive player on defense. The game 2 years ago he recorded 20 tackles. I look for this young man to break out this year.

Just like Kendall Cleveland, Elice Parker and DJ Chark were spring game legends.

I didn't see him do anything this season lol. I don't think I recall him even on the sidelines, but he went off in the spring game at linebacker

Richard murphy was probably the best spring game performer of the miles era. So the spring game may not be the best predictor of future success.

I forget what game it was, but he played clean-up minutes at fullback.

No clue why this dude isn't in the regular rotation. For some reason, Feist gets no love from the coaches, yet all he does is make tackles. Dude is a beast.. And needs to be at LB. couldn't agree morecwithbtge original post.

If for nothing but depth reasons, you can bet he will be back at LB this year, and will probably play a lot of special teams. Between Moore, Mouton, Ducre and Upchurch, with occasional appearances by Williams thrown in, we are good at FB next season.

A great story, if a 5th year senior goes into "Beast" mode in 2016 without any real significant snaps to this point. I always pull for these guys, unfortunately it rarely occurs.

However, Ronnie can hold his head high as a Tiger.

Tabari Williams is my favorite spring game stud.

what I don't get is why he doesn't even get clean up minutes. He has been a spring game stud so that should at least translate to some actual game minutes with as thin as we have been and are at LB. We sure don't need him at FB.

He'd do well to go back to Lb. he might be great for Arandas system, as it's pretty simple, if everyone does their job.

He's had recurring injuries almost every year. That was a big part of his lack of playing time

To be fair, Murphy was hurt most of his career.

Debo only had bits and pieces of minutes before destroying it his first shot at starting. Maybe Feist can do the same?
