Congrats to Timothy Flanders

[Samalum'10]

He just became the all-time rusher in SLC history. Flanders is such a class act, hope he gets his shot at the next level.

The all-time FCS rushing leader is the next record.

The all-time FCS rushing leader is the next record.

FCS: 6,559 – Adrian Peterson (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrian_N._Peterson), Georgia Southern (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Southern_Eagles_football), 1998–2001, 996 rushes

(Believe that is still correct).

And grats to Timothy!

As of right now, Flanders would have to average 229 yds/game to beat that record.

It will be hard to reach all time FCS record since he is a senior this year. He will eclipse the 5000 yd mark in next couple games. He only needs 280yds to reach 5k.

He now owns....


All Time SLC Rushing TDS with 63
All Time SLC Rushing Yards with 4,720 yds. (Claude Mathis held this record)

The way he did it tonight was pretty!! He made so many amazing moves on several different runs! His dead leg side step is unlike anybody I've seen in person!! Probably not as fast but he's definitely as close to Barry Sanders as a player not named Barry Sanders can be.

Saw part of the SDSU game and was highly impressed with Zenner. First time I've seen him play. Completely different running styles but he is a game changer as well!

Congratulations to Timothy Flanders on his record and on always showing great sportsmanship ! Flanders and the many others like him are why we love the FCS.

[RabidRabbit]

Congrats on the outstanding career at RB for Flanders! Star athletes like that are usually a once-in-a-generation for a smaller program such as Sam Houston St. or SDSU.

He has certainly made quite a splash in the Southland, and through the last two years of the play-offs.

Congrats Flanders!

[TheRevSFA]

Congrats Flanders...You've been a hell of a player for Sam and I cannot wait to see you graduate.

[msupokes1]

Definitely a great player and exciting to watch but I will be even more excited to see him leave.

[Sammy94]

I cannot wait to see you graduate.

He already has. Bell, Sincere, and Flanders are enrolled in grad school.

I might get all 3 of them a gift for finishing Grad school.

Not sure the SLC is ready for a heavy dose of muscle bus next year. Call me crazy, but I don't expect much (if any) drop off in RB next season with KHill

[msupokes1]

You might not feel like it is a big drop off but Flanders cannot be replaced. You might have a decent running back but there will not be another Flanders.

xeyebrowx Now you sound like the Texas State Fans after they made their one year run and thought they would be world killers the next year regardless of a ton of seniors departing. I dare say you do NOT have another Flanders and Sincere in your stable right now (although transfers of some kind may appear).

You're Crazy...Muscle Bus is good but he is no Flanders

[Sam_Kats]

I agree. Flanders is VERY special.

[Nickels]

People dont realize how good Hill really is. Hell, he averages more per run than Flanders most games.

IMO his style of running matches our offense better. He'll without a doubt be the star of our offense next year.

He will be a star but no one "makes" runs happen like Flanders does. So many slight shifty moves that make something out of nothing. They are commonplace for us to watch now but in the 13 years I've been around SHSU football there has been nobody comparative to him whether on our team or opposing teams!

[Bearkat 41]

Agreed fmrbearkat. Flanders is as classy as he is great on the field. We will miss him. I do expect huge things from K Hill next year and even this year as I truly believe he is the second best RB in the SLC. He will be good, but man, Flanders is one of a kind.

Yep, i agree 100% on this ! Flanders is a special talent and will be sorely missed. Keyshawn Hill is a good running back, but Flanders is a GREAT running back.

Looking forward to next year, Hill will probably be tabbed the starter, but here is a name to keep an eye on, reshirt freshman STEPHEN HICKS. Next time at a game, watch #25 run the ball and tell me what you think. Me personally, I think this kid could be the next star running back.
