At tailback? He'd be 3rd string.



No CFB analyst/expert/coach would agree with that assessment.

Bo Scar and Pettway are on totally different levels talent wise. And I'm not even trying to troll

The same analysts/ experts who said Rent Richardson was a generational RB prospect. A surefire star, more of a surefire thing at RB than AP, the next Jim Brown ect ect... the same Rent Richardson who became statistically literally the single worst RB in NFL history with over 100 yards?


If there's one thing that the NFL analysts/ scouts/ experts have proven recently it's that their shite at evaluating RBs in general and any player that comes from Bama.




Not saying Pettway will be some great pro... but I am saying Scarbrough ain't.

And you don't have to be a great pro prospect to be a great college player. If any body should know that it should be an Aggie fan. An NFL team will take a QB like Jason Campbell over a QB like Manziel all day, every day. But in college you'd have to be stupid to to not take JFF over a Campbell. JFF is one of the Great college QBs of this generation. But anybody with half a brain knew Manziels game wouldn't translate to the pros and he'd be terrible. Except the dumbasses running the Browns who wasted a 1st round pick on the punk.

Only constants in this world are death, taxes, and NFL scouts and execs proving annually they can be complete dumbasses at evaluating college players.... so I don't think I'll put much stock in their evaluation of a player who's already overrated based off one game, before you ever even factor in how injury prone he is.

Yeah, one lead the SEC in yards per game played and the other stays hurt.

Kam Pettway played in 9 games and ran for over 100 yards 7 times. He ran for over 150 yards 5 times. Bo Scarborough ran for over 100 yards 2 times in 13 games. And Kam Pettway did all of this without a threat at quarterback for most of the season. Bo Scarborough benefitted from having Jalen Hurts in as a dual threat to keep the ball on the read option or just to run in general.

Kam Ram Bubba Pettway > Bo Scarborough

DWI, bitches.
