Flowers didn't qualify


The NCAA ruled him ineligible after his first semester on campus because he his ACT had improved too much.

Must have been super low to begin with because his high score was a 19.

And Damien Harris barely even saw the field last year


He had 10 less carries than Rawleigh Williams last year and we were able to already tell that RW3 has chance to be really good. Harris did not make that same impression at all with better talent around him.

Lock and load. Don't know who will emerge as the starter but it's not too concerning

The year we took 4 backs and only one of them stayed killed our depth


Thank you for AK

Come to think of it, 2 of those 4 will be playing in the SEC this year, and neither for Bama (Tyren Jones at SC.) And RIP Tenpenny

Would Bama fans say DH made up for the other 3?

Thank goodness. He's turrible. Would have been one of our first RB evaluation misses in years.

The good news is, the OL is so good that Bama could take a page from Mike Shula's old offense of Darby up the middle and no one will be able to stop them.

Me thinks that OM and the preacher are in for hurt feelings. The Fact is you will blow your normal 3-4 games.

How many times have you been telling yourself this since the season ended?

He won a National Championship as a starter and a Heisman. Would you take that?

Let's put it another way. If I told you Alvin Kamara would win the Heisman next season and bring Tennessee a national Championship, would you give up Hurd? My guess is yes.

Your best teams in quite a long time have done exactly that, so I don't think it is too far fetched to say that. Especially since you have Florida State, Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas and LSU on the schedule. I would say 3-4 losses is reasonable.

A good oline always makes a good rb.



Except for Leonard Fournette. He had a shitty OL, but he's shitty also according to Bama Fan.

You people... I am not worried about rb, the sec should be worried about Bama's rb situation. They are about to bust heads.

I might be wrong, but I don't believe Jones actually made it to SC.

A Saban team with a poor run game ..alrighty then. Time to cancel the season I guess. Oh and coming into last season there was just Kenyan Drake with a broken leg and Henry. How did that work out?

Not just depth on Dline but, the whole front seven.

That's what made the bama '15 "D" so good. They had the same two deep on the front seven in '14 too. That was a sh*t load of experience returning in '15.

Can't really say the same thing about the two deep for the '16 front seven.
