I'm pumped as hell that Najee is maybe probably possibly fluidly coming back

Glad to hear that Najee is maybe probably.

But who is "fluidity"?
But, I trust you and your judgement by saying he's possibly coming back.

Harris and Sanders is giving me Lacy/Yeldon vibes and I can't wait. 2012 offense, but with 2 elite receivers instead of 1. Sign me up

Any stalking pics of Najee to share today? Ordering at Chipotle maybe?

Offense will be championship caliber again next year, defense needs to step up.

He must have gone to BWW to watch the game last night.

I like Najee and he's good, but I don't personally feel like him coming back increases our title chances in any significant way.

I had always been tough on him, too. Up to this year anyway.

But Najee is an early Saban-era Heisman ‘back. His return immensely helps our chances.

He had the second highest PFF grade on our offense. Behind Tua

I thought he was a difference maker this year, especially over the last half of the season. He elevated his game. Getting him back clearly would be a boost.

I loved the Najee ending of the Michigan game. All the Bama fans chanting "Najee, Najee, Najee". & the Michigan fans getting all butthurt he scored on them.

He’ll definitely come back, unless he doesn’t

Though we barely lost to both this past season I don't think the LSU or AU fateful want anymore of Najee.
Najee vs LSU
19 carries for 146, 1TD rushing & receiving.
Najee vs AU
27 carries for 146 once again & a TD.
He did his part in both marquee games.
Add in the bowl game vs Michigan.
24 carries for 136 & 2 TD's.
This would absolutely be GREAT news if he returns.

Najee must like the offensive make up this season. I love his balance and shiftyness. His top speed isn't the point. He has good quickness and good suddenness to his game. Chuck Foreman, Walter Payton were great backs but not super fast. There are guys like Frank Gore still in the league that has put up all kinds of rushing numbers and he may well find himself in the HOF. He too doesn't have over the top speed.

It's much better to have quick feet and good balance.

I don't agree.

I think whatever production we get from a 2020 2- or 3-man RB rotation that includes Najee, would be pretty similar to the production we'd get from a 2020 2- or 3-man rotation that doesn't include Najee.

Don't get me wrong, I think highly of Najee and think he's an asset to the team, and he very well could be the best RB on the team in 2020, but we've recruited really well at the position. And with Robinson, Robinson, and Sanders the top 3 before factoring in the 3 freshman RBs we signed, 2 of which are already on campus, I have a hard time believing that having or not having Najee specifically will make a huge difference, production wise.

I guess my point is not about Najee, but how highly I think of the guys behind him on the depth chart. We've always had the next wave waiting in the wings to be stars, and I see no reason why that would be different now.

Moses coming back, Leatherwood coming back - these are the types of players/positions whose return significantly increases our chances of winning a championship, given what's behind them and the nature of their positions.
