That's understandable. I guess with the possible commitment of McNeil and Henry being a legacy I would have thought he would end up at Arkansas. I'd rather have Henry just because there's a lot of reports about McNeil having grade troubles.

Henry is a legacy, but was born and raised in Georgia. His family hasn't lived in Arkansas his whole life to make him a die hard Razorback fan.

According to Derrick Henry Bama still leads but UT has moved to number 2 ahead of Georgia.

Bo says he is not moving and he is not related to Foster. Both just rumors.

Look at Bo's speed. Its incredible for his size. No joke he looks like he runs a low 4.3 in his videos.

Not saying that he isnt good but he isnt ready for the league. Never got why all of you were saying he would go to the draft? He isnt asked to do anything special and still makes dumb mistakes like the first play of the spring game.
his first starting year stats compare favorably to the stats of both andrew luck and matt barkley in their first year starting. not saying he will be of that caliber, but its a bit early to write him off. hes got a very strong arm, just needs to work on touch on the long ball. he is very accurate in the 0-25 yard range, just overthrows a bit on the longer ones sometimes. he has really good pocket presence and is surprisingly athletic.

Bo said UGA leads, Bama second followed by Clemson and Florida, he said Auburn isn't among his leaders, and he isn't transferring to Auburn HS.He wants to visit all these mentioned schools again before making a decision.Says he and Reuben aren't related and that rumor plus the rumor of him transferring were "crazy".

Yeah Bateman is a very good runner, most people don't realize that.
Posted on 7/18/12 at 3:13 pm to CrimsonFever
JPW, GMAC, and AJ all had better running ability then you would think looking at them, but Cooper is on a different level. I doubt it's something that we would really feature in our offense, but it'll be nice to have when the pocket breaks down.

To continue the trend with McElroy and McCarron, we need to have Cooper change his name to Cooper McBateman.

Or he can just wear Parker McLeod's jersey

I have written him off or nothing but all im saying is people are acting like they have seen something that makes you say wow that kid is just special or something.

GMAC was one of the most accurate QBs I have ever seen.
His first year as a starter he completed 60% of his passes WITH JULIO JONES.
McCarron's first year as a starter WITHOUT JULIO JONES, he completed 67% of his passes.
I love seeing people write off AJ and Lacy. Forget about them. They're gonna prove everyone wrong though.

Are you sure you dont want to revise this into the context that he threw very high percentage passes mostly off of a very well respected play action. He was a good college Qb but lets not get a head of ourselves.

With or without PA he would have thrown 70% of his attempts as completions.
