He's able to be a RB and a WR in the slot and the Coaches are talking about running plays for him at QB. That's saying a lot about the confidence the Coaches have in this young man. With most of our tough games at home, Fannin could be the difference maker and the biggest play maker to take this team over the top in 2008.

If he can correct that then yes, he will be a force to be reckoned with. If not then he will see a lot of bench time regardless of his talent. Lets hope he has taken care of that problem.

I disagree from the article that Fannin needs to be in the open field in order to flourish. While he would will certainly benefit from this, Fannin appeared to be very physical when pounding the ball up the middle. I believe that if he didn't have the issues with holding on to the ball, he would have been the number one tailback through out the season. I am excited to see what he's going to do this year. We haven't had a player of his versatility in a long time. Ronnie Brown was probably the closest.

A pretty good blocker too. Yes he fumbled a couple of times last season. But our senior QB turned the ball over more times than everyone combined last season. So we shouldn't be too quick to judge our young stud RB. Just turn him loose with the rest of the arsenal we have. Play hard, have fun and lay it all out on the line. Warrr Eagle!!!! A HUGE TOW FAN!!!!!!!!

Burns lines up in shotgun with Fannin along side him with a 4 wide setup 2 recievers split either side. Fannin goes into motion "Theres the snap to Burns". He throws a quick out to Tim Hawthorne who shovels the ball back to Fannin. He has daylight down the sideline. Hes got something....! Touchdown Auburn... I am a huge Mario Fan and I think he has a tremendous upside. Only a sophmore (redshirt).
