Biggest pickup of the class for Alabama. Looks like he has been cleared per scout dot com. Wish he could have gotten in last February

Would he have been playing a lot this year?

At this point due to injuries he would be the 3rd string back and he brings a skill set similar to drake in that he can lineup in the backfield or out wide in addition to lining up at the H, he probably would have contributed on special teams. Bo is a 3 year talent anyway, IMO the quicker you can get those guys in the program the better.

I thought y'all were interested in him as a linebacker? Or was that just a recruiting rumor?

Bo Scar would be the perfect linebacker, but no, he is a running back. He will play as much linebacker as Derrick Henry has in his time at UA. Bo Scar was the best running back on the field in the UA All American game.

I was starting to want Bo Scar to be a WR back when it looked like he would make it in this fall. Imagine some poor 175 lb cornerback trying to tackle him He's got great hands, too.

Yeah when I heard those rumors during his recruitment I thought they were ridiculous. That kid is going to be a really good one if he keeps his head about him.

Did you watch the UA game? Did he not look like the best running back in that particular game?

:threadhijack:

Why was Ronnie Clark moved to running back? I assume it was because of Kenyan Drake's injury, but still having TJ Yeldon, Derrick Henry, Altee Tenpenny and Tyren Jones there seemed kind of desperate.

At one point Yeldon had a quad injury, Henry was banged up, Tyren Jones has a hand injury. Our only healthy back was Tenpenny. Ronnie Clark was hurt in a non-contact injury when he was playing scout team running back. We didn't want to risk Tenpenny's health in a scout team drill.

Anyone who has thought about playing running back for Bama seems to be getting injured.

Bama has, for the most part, avoided the injury bug with key players during Saban's tenure. This is the law of averages at work. It's Bama's turn to be a walking MASH unit.

He is so fricking good... Congrats... I always felt like he was the best pure athlete in the 2014 class... He'll play RB but I swear he could play LB on Sundays as well.

Reminds me of my Denver Broncos the last year of Mike Shanahan's tenure. We lost 7 running backs to IR in that one season. It was unreal.

I hate complaining about injuries because it makes me sound like I'm making excuses, but damn this year has sucked.

Losing Kelly and Drake hurts big time. Losing them in the same game was a difference maker. Add to that Denzell Devall's injury and we had the injury AIDS versus OM.

The Kelly injury changed the entire complexion of that game... Bozeman just wasn't ready to face an elite , interior Dline yet.

He was working at that 6th star. He's even better now than he was last year.
