Better back: Glen Coffee or Terrance Magee?

A lot of similarities between these two. Both have/had good not great careers, starting off as backups that didn't arrive as ballyhooed freshmen. Coffee really turned it on in his last year at Alabama, perhaps a great freshman behind him pushed him from serviceable to really good?
Fournette will make Magee a better back, do you think he's as talented as a guy like Coffee who went in the third round? Magee is going to be the guy carrying the mail for at least the first half of the season, and there will be a strong defense or two in there keying on him while the quarterbacks get their feet wet. Can Magee and company carry LSU ala Coffee and Ingram in 2008 for bama?

Coffee: 1383 yards and 10 TDs in 2008
And it isn't fair to compare the 2 because McGee will have been the primary backup to Fournette and Hill... Coffee was at least a starter his senior year.

Magee has always been underrated, mainly because he's been behind Hill and when Blue had that good year

Did he have a 7.3 ypc like Magee?

when did Blue have a good year? He was the starter at the beginning of 2012 but was hurt for the season in week 3. However, Magee moved to wide receiver for the 2012 season, so no he didn't really play behind anyone at RB in 2012. He played behind Ware, Hilliard, Ford, and Blue in 2011 and behind Hill last year.

Magee has potential to be a top 5 rounder. But the league doesn't seem to take RBs as early as in the past. But a fair comparison imo.
If Magee does what Coffee did as a senior, I'd obviously be pleased.
