He ain't going any where, and why does anyone care what the number of the cat that has a great year is?
I just how someone steps up, don't care who.

I care because I think if I was hanging out with Fowler and Drake, I wouldn't tell Drake which pocket my wallet is in, but would tell Jalston.

I am definitely on the Drake bandwagon, but I think he will be more of a support role to Yeldon as will Henry. I think TJ will get a HUGE portion of the touches in 2013. He is just too good. I think it will be similar to T-Rich/Lacy in 2011.

I hope TJ is putting in an effort to improve his pass pro. It improved throughout the season last year, but still has a way to go.

That said, TJ with even just 18 touches a game could be lethal.

I will be happy to see more of the power-I that we only got a sample of before Fowler went down last year. I am so happy to have Jalston back.

Same, Fowler was making crazy arse blocks out in space. I think he had a lot to do with the, what, six yards before contact we had against Michigan?

Yes. Herbstreit quickly noticed Fowler saying he was "A valuable commodity" or something to that effect. Fowler may be the most diverse skill player Bama has.

You all assume Fowler will come back 100%, he could be below 4th on the dc at start of the season.

Behind who? He is technically a fullback. He isn't a runningback.

He's a running back who played a few snaps at fullback last year. He was 3rd string RB in 2011 and 2012 before his injury

I think he'll be an important piece of the run game if he's healthy. He was blowing people up with his blocks and with a somewhat inexperienced OL we will need his blocking abilities and versatility
