Everybody loves the shiny new toy. Harris is a great back. Go watch high school film of Tyren Jones, Kenyan Drake, Derrick Henry, and Bo Scarbrough.
If you were to watch the tapes without knowing who was whom, I would probably rank them Drake, Jones, Scarbrough, Henry, Harris
That isn't a knock on Harris because they were all ridiculous in high school, I just think it's easy to forget when we get a commitment from a great player that most of the roster is full of great players. You can only play 11 at a time.
I don't expect Harris to play much on offense next year. He's stepping into our most loaded position.
'15- Henry, Drake, Jones
'16- Jones, Scarbrough, Harris
'17- Harris, Flowers, guy not on roster.
How I see the carries being divided up if everyone were to remain healthy. There will be carries had by guys not listed in backup time, but even our 3rd back has been used sparingly recently. Upchurch and Drake have been the only guys to touch the ball as our third back, and Drake was more of a 2B option than a third option.

I'm ok with any athletes getting fresh starts at whatever school will take them. at least 50-75% of the kids at most D1 schools are not your average law abiding citizens anyway. All coaches take chances on kids like this because it's the profession they live in; win in a year or two or be fired. I know Saban isn't worried about getting canned so he probably believes he can help the kid. I have no real skin in the game since I went to South and Cal but I am a lifelong fan of my dad's alma mater and I'm ok with it.
