Tarean Folston never got the starting job in Notre Dame. But during his four years, he was able to contribute to the Fighting Irish in his own way. As their big back for the last two seasons, Folston did everything Notre Dame needed him to.
His 1,712 yards and 11 touchdowns throughout his career were significant factors in Notre Dame’s running game success. This last season, while being the number two back to Josh Adams, Folston contributed 334 yards on 77 carries, finishing with a 4.3 yards per carry average.
