Hope he makes a ton of money and sets his Dad up. Kid had it rough.

Quick summary: Mom left Dad with 5 kids and no place to live. Stayed in hotels for years.

I don't think anyone could not pull for Josh.

Yep, great kid and I though he was Bama’s best back even at the end of the season last year. Didn’t get the touches I though he deserved but that’s good for him as he heads into his NFL career.
I remember reading somewhere when he got to Bama he would still sleep on the floor in the dorm because that was what he was used to. Give em hell Baby Rhino!

Wrong Teague, I’m not pulling for Josh because he is from bama. I am pulling for the rest of his family. The sins of a son or brother shouldn’t effect the rest of his family

He hits hard.

Bama running back depth is crazy.

I was surprised they did not try to shorten the game and run more versus Clemson especially with the talented backs they had.

Well, he is from OK. He just played at UA.

He was underrecruited by OK schools and took an opportunity to get out to the best available option when it appeared. Then, he made the most of the opportunity by remaining humble and driven.

He worked his arse off and excelled by all measures to become a consistent, tough competitor to earn playing time on one of the most talented rosters in CFB.

He didn't let his past define him or be a victim of circumstance. He took an opportunity to rise above his life situation and made the most of it.

Now, he is in position to give back to his family and will most certainly do so. But, I hear you. He is obviously a schitbag for playing at Bama.

Major props to the kid and I hope he does well. I don't see first round talent in him, more like something similar to Peyton Barber. But go get that money kid.
