I think Alabama takes more of a rb by committee approach next year so Lacy's numbers might not be great, but he's def one of the best in the SEC.

You forgot Christine Michael (Had 900 yards on a 6 ypc average before he tore his ACL in game 9)

Hopefully our OL will get better at run blocking.

I think Davis will be tops.

Eddie Lacy and Lattimore will compete for 2/3 (depends on how well Lattimore recovers).

I think KH will be the go to guy for LSU next year, but will still split time too much to get big numbers.

There are a couple of guys that could break-out and make the #5 spot. Tre Mason for AU has potential. Crowell is a stud if he gets his head on straight.

Josey is better than Michael imo.

Lacy can be a beast when he doesn't have a case of the tippy-toes. Interested to see how much TJ Yeldon plays.

I have no idea what to expect from Knile. I thought Greg Childs would be a top receiver this year. Is Dennis Johnson still around?

Josey was the feature back in the Missouri offense. Michael split time with Cyrus Gray.

What about freshman backs?

Right now it looks like:

T.J. Yeldon
Trey Williams

To think, LSU could have also had Eddie Lacy AND Christine Michael to go along with the backs they already have. And, we have Jeremy Hill coming in and Terrance Magee, who played sparingly as a true freshman, but is a beast.

Scary.

Speaking of scary:

If the NCAA approves the waiver and allows him to play this coming season, A&M will have 3 5-star running backs on the active roster for the first time ever (Christine Michael, Brandon Williams, Trey Williams)
