The Tolbert Effect

Recommended Posts

Going back to the beginning of last season, our record with Tolbert on the field is 14-2

Without him? 1-6-1

Coincidence or contribution?

I think his value to the team is one of the most underrated aspects of the team. Blocking, catching out of the backfield, goaline TDs and getting first downs on 3rd and short. 

Something to consider as he approaches free agency this offseason

Coincidence ... Tobert does NOT block .. not once have I seen him lay out a linebacker or make room for Stew behind him .. He may have his occasional catch here or 2 yard run there but its all shade IMO.  Ward would/should have taken his spot on the roster but for some reason the dancing bear is still dancing

I think we just need a younger power RB. Another Stewart.

Tolbert plays around 30% of the snaps a given week.   He is a nice ultility HB but we just need youth there.  Can't ask him to hold up at his age being that

We will eventually, next year or the year after.  But Tolbert is ok for the role he is playing right now.  He doesn't have that much mileage on him for a back his age.

    • This is a great episode I am soo excited for this season 😀
    • Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets   The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a promising 2025 NBA Draft class and will enter Summer League with no shortage of new faces looking to make an impression. But the most interesting addition didn’t come from the draft board. Instead, it’s DJ Rodman — the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer and five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman — who’s bringing some extra attention to the Hornets’ Summer League roster. Rodman played four years at Washington State before making the move to USC for his final season.  He wasn’t exactly lighting it up with the Trojans, putting up about 6 points, four boards, and an assist each game. But he did shoot well — hitting around 41% from the field and draining 36% of his three-pointers.  Standing 6-foot-6, he’s got the size to play on the wing and offers some versatility, which could be just what the Hornets are looking for as they try to fill out their roster. The Hornets’ Summer League squad already has plenty of fresh faces with this year’s draft picks and young guys fighting for a role. But Rodman’s last name alone is enough to turn heads, and now he’ll get his shot to prove he belongs once the games tip off in Vegas. Charlotte’s Summer League team is already drawing interest with recent draft picks and young players hoping to crack the rotation. But Rodman’s last name — and his potential to bring energy and toughness — adds another layer of intrigue. What Rodman lacks in college stats, he makes up for with hustle and competitiveness — traits his dad was known for throughout his Hall of Fame career. If he can bring that same energy and show growth in Summer League, he could carve out a role and surprise some people. Though the odds are against him making the Hornets’ final roster, there’s no denying the spotlight that comes with the Rodman name. The Hornets kick off Summer League next week in Las Vegas.   Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets
    • At this point, I only care what he does in 2025.
