Look at his competition on film....It looks to be JV lol...He's phenomenal though and he is doing what he is supposed to do though. Cam Ackers just looks more at ease to me. I'm not saying you're right or wrong just my opinion.

Here you go baw. Leonard Fournette's Junior season highlights. He gets brought to the ground twice, once right after catching a pass and a second time after he'd already scored. The second time the other kid was flagged for a face mask as well. And he wasn't doing at against any sissys from north Cali either. Harris is a tremendous player, but I can think of several backs with much more impressive film.

As far as Akers goes, can't see why a RB would want to go to OM. Given Alabama runs the ball 50 plus times a game. One thing that is incredible about Bama's offense now is they run 80-90 plays a game now.

Najee Harris reminds me of a mix of Henry and Yeldon. He needs to add 20 pounds honestly and utilize his power. He won't be able to out run guys in the sec very often like Henry imo. Harris has a better burst than Henry but Henry has better break away speed. Henry also gets lower than Harris. Harris runs upright like Yeldon.

I think we hold onto all 3. Henry winning the heisman, bama continuing to run the ball 50 plus times a game plus throwing it 35-40 opening up the run should make it where we have no issues getting RBs or WRs. All about balance with the influence of playing bama ball: run the football with WR screens and take your shots deep on play action.

I can see why one would go to Ole Miss over Bama. Competitive salary but less competition

You should check out 2018 RB Zamir White's tape out of NC, I personally think the rising JR. is the top HS RB prospect in the land.

Looks like Cam's having a good time on his visit to Ole Miss decked out in red and blue.

look at the size of the kids fournette is running against. the kids in maroon look like middle schoolers.


Harris will be the best back during the Saban era. Better then trent richardson



He looks like a mix between gurley and henry

Why do people not know the difference between then and Than?

Than is used when comparing things.

Then is used when you mean afterwards.


Every time I see these on Twitter or on this board people mess it up 50% of the time.

you should care.

for when you fall out of the minor league, and need a real world job that requires communication skills.

Trying to help you out. Maybe next time you get it right.

Akers is the #1 back on UA's board. You can take that to the bank. Whether we get him or not is another story. Would love to have them both though. It's looks like Harris is playing a bunch of private school kids. Akers plays in the highest class in Mississippi and can do what Harris does unless people are blind. On top of that he can throw!


Umm. No, he's not. Harris is the best back to come out in years. We'll have a fight on our hands. But make no mistake about it, Akers is not higher on the board than Harris. FAR from it.
