People don't still really believe this do they? Cooper was working with the 1st team O on A-day while Black was with the 2nd team
You're right, and I probably should have said that there was more buzz 'bout Black in the Spring as opposed to "outperforming" Coop. Black had the big A-Day game and Coop didn't...and the buzz before Black's season-ending injury in August was that he had worked his way into the rotation, albeit an unproven one. Not that the media knows all, but I was reading/hearing much more 'bout Black before his injury...
May have just been that Coop (whom Saban praised in press conferences during the Spring) was doin' his normally workmanlike thing and thus didn't generate as much buzz...as well as fans/media putting too much focus on the Spring game.

The issue with Black besides the injuries is that he seems to have regressed over the years. My guess is he is probably frustrated and has been pressing when he has had opportunities.
I can say for sure that when he was a RS Freshman, Chris, Blake, and Drake made garbage time alot of fun. I hope he can come back 100% as a Senior and become a significant contributor. I kinda view him similar to Dee Hart in alot of ways...
