Kenny Irons

Kerryon was SEC offensive player of the year... and the main reason (along with the defense) we won the west in 2017.
Bigsby can be as good... just gonna take a little time.

I'm not going to say until he outlasts Boobie Whitlow.
Or Kam Pettway.
Or Jovon Robinson.
Or Michael Dyer.
We've had too many flash in the pan RBs who ended up washing out of the program in recent years. Get back with me at the end of 2021 and see if he's still performing at the level he has in his first half a season before we start comparing him to any AU legends.

I’m trying to respond to this even keeled. Are you saying he’s better than Kerryon and Cadillac and Ronnie Brown? This isn’t even mentioning the other great seasons we’ve seen (Mason, Irons, Stephen Davis, Bostic).
Maybe we keep our pants on until he’s finished more than half a season.

At this point, I think he fits the Mason role more than anyone.
I really dont think people remember how good Mason was.
If Tank can live up to that level, we will be OK..

IMO, Mason couldn't break tackles like Tank. He was great, dont get me wrong. Both are fast, but Tank's ability to run through people is as impressive as his vision to make tacklers miss.

Mason and Marshall were a great match. Tre was so tough up the middle and could get through tiny holes. Nick was obviously just a magician

Tank runs very much like Cadillac did. The vision and cutting ability are so similar. I don’t know if it’s just coincidence that CW is his coach, or if he’s working with Tank on things. They look so alike to me.

THIS!!! Mason was so good the Heisman committee couldn't keep him out of NY and he did it without a campaign promoting him.

We can just agree to disagree on that one bro

This is premature.

I think Tank is much more of a north/south runner than Cadillac. Cadillacs Cuts and lateral moves were very good. Like Cadillac, tank can break tackles and shows toughness of a running back much larger than 205lbs. Both play with tremendous heart as well. When I watch tank run he actually reminds me of Kenny irons although i think tank is larger and has a higher ceiling.

I remember Mason always getting a couple more yards that he had no business getting. Especially in the Alabama game. He picked up some key first downs when it looked like there was nothing there.

Totally agree.
Kerryon is the correct answer though.
