Two-minute drill (Q&A) with UL senior RB Tyrell Fenroy

[NewsCopy]

 As Tyrell Fenroy prepares for his senior season at UL, he ranks third nationally among active players with 3,271 rushing yards in his career.

The speedy running back from LaPlace also sits on the verge of history. He needs 65 yards to become UL's all-time leading rusher. With another 780 yards he will set the Sun Belt Conference's career rushing mark.

After Friday's practice, Fenroy spoke with The Daily Advertiser about getting back on the field, his legacy and his future.

Question: What do you like the most about finally getting back to practice?

Answer: I like seeing the guys fighting hard and all the intensity. Seeing the guys out here having fun and playing football means a lot to me. They're working hard to make me better, and I'm working hard to make them better.

I thought the same thing. He never appears that fast on the field

I believe the article states that he improved since last year .2 seconds (not directly said that way). That would in fact be awesome. I guess we will see, because he should outrun a lot of people at 4.3 speed. Regardless, way to go Fenroy, for working so hard in the offseason.

Geaux UL!

If Fenroy really runs a 4.32 40 he will be a first round draft pick. Hell if he runs a 4.42 that will probably get him a top40 pick.
Regardless of his time, he is a great RB and seems like a great kid.

If Fenroy can stay healthy and get 18+ carries a game he could surpass 5,000 yards rushing in a career. I do not see him getting that many carries per game though, he never gets enough carries in the beginning of the season.
