I'm listing facts. Here is another. Booger rushed for over 200 yards against the 80th, 126th, and dead last 128th ranked rushing defenses. All teams Henry didn't get the luxury of playing. Draw your own conclusions.

I've seen claims that Bama is RBU from time to time on here. Sure is...odd, but I don't see even 1 Bama RB in the top 12 of the SEC's all-time yards rushed list. Even though yards rushed > avg/game it is being said.
Strange that 3 of the top 7 are LSU RBs. Likely 4 of top 8 after next year

If Leonard Fournette had played in two more games, he would had more yards, open your frickin eyes.

This seems to be your go to shtick when people don't agree with your argument. It's pathetic and sad.
Henry is a great RB. He wouldn't have won the Heisman if he wasn't. Acting like he is somehow vastly superior to Fournette is laughable when there is plenty of evidence to the contrary.

Greatest running back in SEC History, Derrick Henry, turning pro
Meh. There are only a handful of backs in NCAA history who ever had 395 carries or more in a single season. Its hard not to rack up big numbers when that happens, especially when you've got all-star supporting talent around you.

To be fair though, Henry has a good shot at being a better pro than Trent Richardson.

It wouldn't be surprising if D.Henry became the 2nd best HENRY out of the SEC.
Not far fetched that UT's Travis Henry could end up with a better pro resume than Derrick, looking at Bama's back history in the NFL. At least Sherman Williams got a ring, right?

Greatest over rated player in SEC History for sure.
Collins a close second.
