I just saw where this was mentioned in the Recruiting board, but since he's already on campus, I didn't think it belonged in the 2014 board.

I guess this is why you recruit 9 RBs.

Sounds like Saban needs to offer the scholarship to someone else.

That sucks for him. I'm still confused as to why he chose Bama with a laundry list of great RBs in front of him, but I guess Saban is just convincing like that.

Yeah, but he will still just get one year out of this deal. (sarcasm)

He'll be fully healed by July. This will give Tenpenny, and Jones a better shot to compete with him for the 3-4 spot at RB.


Eta: Na, just kiddin' fellas. It's a bad break. Once he limps onto the practice field this fall we'll move him to JACK, and at the end of the season ole Kirby will practice his water boarding skills until Henry says he'll transfer. RTR.

We rotate a lot of backs, and that's very appealing to recruits. RB have a very short lifespan in the NFL, and minimizing the miles they have on them is huge. Less chances of injury, and when they come in they're fresh. Most of them leave after 3 years as well.

I will set the over under on the time it takes for him to be processed at 8 months.

I will take the under.

A guy that tall is going to catch a lot of leg injuries at RB, especially in the SEC where the DT and DE are even bigger than he is.
