I get the feeling someone other than Metchie will step up for Bama next year. He just doesnt have the same feel to him that Jeudy, Smith, Waddle had. Certainly a good receiver in his own right but it wouldn't surprise me if a new name from Bama came on strong and is their leading receiver next year. They've certainly recruited enough talent there.

I agree. Maybe one of the freshman (Leary or Earle would be my choice)

It will have to come from one of the incoming freshmen. The guys on the current roster are a huge drop from what they've had the last 6 - 8 years.

There's definitely enough talent there for someone to do so, but that doesn't always translate. We've been entirely too blessed at that position as of late; feels like anyone will end up feeling like step down regardless of how good.

Not saying you're wrong because I wouldn't be surprised if we see a freshman eventually become the #1 guy by season's end, but Metchie played hurt all year. We'll see if his success this year was due to the being #2 opposite Smith.

Javon Baker is the name to watch at Bama.

I don't disagree with that, but Metchie apparently played with an injury for the second half of the year. He was looking a lot more dynamic early. But, I do agree that he's probably more of a dependable #2 guy. He's not quite the freak the guys before him were.
