Ya know I can't remember much from his recruitment, what does everyone expect from Bo and what did you think of him vs LF coming out?
He's 6'2" 240, so he's likely not as fast as he was coming out. I don't remember if he ever had a whole lot of wiggle like LF does.

He's athletic enough to play WR. I believe he played WR at the UA game.

Yeah that I remember. He made some good plays at WR as I recall. I still hope we eventually utilize him all over the offense.

Just looked it up.
He had 2 carries for 16 yards and 2 receptions for 39 yards.
Sidenote: He was catching passes from Auburn's QB Sean White.

I wonder if we'll use him any against Georgia? I imagine he'll be the #4 RB. Harris got some PT earlier than usual against ULM, but Henry may have still been a little sick.
Also the past two games I feel like we haven't utilized Drake as a pass catcher as much as we could have. Drake, Howard, Ridley, and Mullaney need to get the vast majority of the targets IMO.
I noticed something earlier about Ridley.
In 2012 a RS Sophomore DeAndrew White got hurt vs Ole Miss. Amari Cooper took his place and had a 1000 yard, 11 TD season.
In 2015 a RS Sophomore Robert Foster got hurt vs Ole Miss. Calvin Ridley has taken his place.

I think Bo would be the #3 guy behind Henry and Drake. I'd love to see Henry and Bo in the backfield at the same time.

Drake needs to stop dancing once he gets the ball. Just cut once and go. He does look like Reggie Bush back there. Unfortunately it's the Saints' Reggie Bush and not the USCw one.

Time will tell.

Yeah I've noticed Drake is producing well, but he's running too wildly. I could see him moving to WR in the NFL, too much dancing for my taste at RB.

Drake was wide open on an angle route trailing Howard (who was the pass recipient) IIRC. He might've even scored.
Some of this just comes down to Coker often locking in on one receiver. That we're a third of the way through the season and he's still doing it is concerning.

Yet he's only played 2 and a half full games.

I have gotten my hopes up too many times that Saban will spring something like this on an opponent.
He never has.
Since we would all love to see it, it won't happen.

I want to see Bo used as the Hback. Move him around and create mismatches.

I would love to see Bo at Hback and use him similar to how we used Nudie. Except let him run the ball a little more than we ran Nudie
