Can this be disputed?

He's at the top of his sport right now, and has been for over a year.


He just won the Honda Classic and is back on top of the FedEx Cup leaderboard.


He's a superstar.

He's got my vote. He, like Spieth and many other of the great young golfers, have made golf so much more fun to watch. Don't get wrong- I still turn on golf to watch Tiger because he was my favorite growing up. But the field is so competitive now, and it's awesome to see JT play up to his potential consistently these last two years.

Justin had players in his face today and he stepped ahead of them all. Congrats to him. He is a special player (regardless to where he played college golf).

Confidence confidence and more confidence ...Justin has it.

He's definitely passed Jerry Pate as the best UA golfer alum.

Cool thing is, he's a hardcore Bama fan. I would be surprised if he doesn't make significant contributions to the athletic department.

Mosley has an argument. 3X second team all Pro in his first four years. The year he didn't get it was a head scratcher because he was projected to be one.

You don't think golfers are athletes?

How far can you hit a 3 iron?

No, I never said golfers weren't an athlete. My statement was that Justin Thomas is currently the best Alabama pro.

He isn't the best "athlete" to come out of Alabama.

JT gumps hard. One of my favorites to come out of Bama in any sport.

JTs trophy case puts Julio's to shame.

Sportscenter just had a graphic that showed the only players to have 8 wins on the PGA tour before their 25th birthday are Tiger, Jack, Speith, and JT.

I'd say that's on track to be a hall of famer.

Is julio still averaging most yards per game receiving, if so still him. Unless jt is an all time #1 in some golf category...
