This didn’t happen. They were both 1a and 1b. Alston missed two games and, when he returned, Cobb averaged more than 2 yards more per carry. Alston realized that his best chance for money was to redshirt, while getting NIL, and then transfer. Auburn's collective said no.

None of the above is questioned.

A coach! They need offensive production because their D is bad arse. Head coach is past his day.

You’re trying to be too cute by half. Alston was RB1. Fact. Alston got hurt. Fact. Cobb took over RB1 while Alston was injured. Fact. Alston could not break back into RB1 after he came back. Fact. Alston left the team. Fact. My point was, how does that happen? I could see a run of the mill guy doing that, but Alston paid his dues, waited his turn……..and quit. Put all the lipstick on that pig you want. It’s still a pig.

I don't remember a depth chart that listed Alston as RB1. Not once. Freeze listed the RBs, and others, as "or".

NIL money. Alston wanted to continue helping practice, continue conditioning, and support the team, all while being paid NIL before he transferred. Auburn's collective said no.
