So stoked for this kid, he's going to be an Alabama legend.

Who starts, him or Yeldon in the next couple years? And where does Jones and Hart go? Not to mention Scarbrough? How are all of these kids going to be "legends?"

ETA: Not to mention Brent Calloway.

Yeldon is NFL after 2 more seasons.

Hart is medical after 2 ACL tears.

Bo Scar will probably be a WR. Imagine that guy out wide. DAMN!

Calloway is a HB/TE type.

Jones/Kamara/Tenpenny will fight for carries.

And then don't forget Roc Thomas coming in next year. Another 5* running back.

It is a great time to be a fan! And an Alabama RB as well, the last 2 NFL drafts have both featured an Alabama RB taken as the 1st RB off the board. And then, most speculate Lacy will be the 1st RB off the board this year.

3 straight NFL drafts with a Bama RB going as the #1 RB. Huge selling tool.

We have had legendary RB after legendary RB since Saban has been here. Do you think anything is going to change about that?

You have had great OL play and pretty good RBs to complement it. To be honest, I am not sure anyone outside of the Bama program will think back in ten years on your run of excellent RBs these past few years and think "legend". IT really doesn't matter as they have gotten the program to where you want it to be, but I just can't recall a single mind-blowing play from any of them. Then again, wehne you say "legend" I will always be thinking along the lines of a Walker or a Jackson.

Henry wants to know if you swallow with all the deep throating you're doing?

So you're going to sit there and say that Mark Ingram and Trent Richardson aren't legends of the Alabama football program? Both were Heisman finalists and one won it. Yeldon looks to have just as much if not more potential than both of them.

You should all change your usernames to WEJELLY.

Pay him no mind. He's a trashy piece of shite who likes to make tornado jokes and only shows up to talk shite about Alabama.

The difference was that Walker and Jackson had WAY more carries. They will probably be remembered as doing more. Doesn't mean that some of these players couldn't become legendary, despite getting fewer carries.

You mean like 49 swallows - to zero swallows?

Is he that big or is the rest of the team that small?

The kids got passion.
------------------------

I feel as bad for Dee Hart as any kid. He was so dejected when his knee gave way after that punt catch. It just shows the knee can go at any time. He's had two now.

Is Eddie Lacey really considered "legendary?" He was amazing, no doubt, but I don't think he was legendary.

ETA: You may not have been talking about Lacey. If you weren't, my bad. And to my original post, I believe Yeldon will be legendary, but I don't see Henry becoming legendary with Jones, Kamara, and likely many more.

That's quite a comment to make about someone you've never met.

Lacy was great, but not legendary.

I was referring to Ingram, Richardson, and what Yeldon could be.

I fear that Lacy will be lost in the shuffle of what looks to be a string of really good/great running backs.

As far as legendary goes, none of them are as that status is reserved for guys like Walker/Bo.
