Should worry about your mid tier program first.

Edwards will likely split the 1st team reps with Milton.

Josh Williams is one of those good stories. Walk on that worked his way into rotation and then became basically a starter type. Glad to have him coming back for 1 last year.

McClellan graded out 76.9
Jam Miller graded out 74.7
Roydell Williams graded out 72.7

So those are all really good, probably first 2 Top 15 returning and with Williams all Top 20

Considering each team probably returns on average 3-4 RB, You're probably looking at 42-56 returning backs total, so being easily in top half is pretty good

That RB from Ole Miss is LEGIT. Don’t know how he got out of the state of Alabama but he was a miss by Alabama and Auburn.

Oh, I didn't know those grades were supposed to be good. We had a guy with a 95.2 grade and another one with an 81.6.

Looks like Bama's best back last year had an 80.2 grade.

I can't directly find Gibbs' 2021 grades, but I did find a quote saying:

quote:

His 91.5 receiving grade was the highest among all FBS running backs this season. Gibbs was no slouch in the run game either, as he earned a solid 86.2 rushing grade. 

Does this mean he tDeclined under Saban?

This list looks aight based on film that I’ve seen. But I can’t judge #7 as I haven’t seen him perform. Have any of you guys seen film on Hunter? What are your thoughts?

It means that Gibbs was the 12th player taken in the NFL draft.

Do you ever just confuse yourself?

The rest of the list after Judkins was off-season argument fodder.


Davis was #4 in rushing in the SEC last season at Vandy and was a 1,000+ yard rusher in 2022. I'd say he's right about where he needs to be on this list.

He was taken because of the potential shown under Tashard Choice, Bama only hurt his draft stock.

Tashard Choice also had another RB drafted before Gibbs

12th pick for an NFL running back. Josh Jacobs, the 1st running back to go in the 1st round. Najee Harris, the 1st running back to go in the first round.

NFL history and by all accounts on the rant, You really are a retard.

All those Bama accolades yet his grading still massively declined under Saban's tutelage.

Can you explain that?

a 12th pick for a back and grading massively declined. You may be too stupid even for a shorthorn. More evidence of a purple person in disguise.

Both are true, I don't know what you want me to do about it. NFL teams draft based on potential

I'm just wondering what at Bama caused him to grade out so badly compared to Texas's top two backs.

This year will be a true test of Nick's coaching career. I can't think of an Alabama team with so many preseason question marks. It will be fun to watch for sure. You guys are lucky to get them early.
