Well, look at last year.

Trent - Scholly

Lacy - Scholly

Fowler - Scholly

Hart - Scholly, but RS

Sims - Scholly, but more of an ATH who got reps at TB than an actual runningback.


So last year we won the national title like that...

It would have to be McCarron. We could still win by letting AJ go all out. We've let him off of the leash, but clearly we're still tugging it at times. If Saban let the whole thing go it's GG to most teams.

you don't think Yeldon, Drake, and Lacy are good? They arent Trent good but they are above-average RBs.

Trent was great.


Lacy is really, really good. He's been hurting and we've used him as our short yardage back too. After the bye week I think he proves he's legit.


Yeldon is extremely talented, but he's young and sometimes young guys make mental errors, even on runs.

Drake hasn't had any meaningful snaps, but in garbage time he's looked good.

Lacy is good but nothing special and always injured.

Yeldon has come back down to earth after everyone crowned him against a shite Michigan team.

Drake has like 5 carries in garbage time against a shite Arkansas team that had already quit, so who knows.

He has been pretty healthy this year after the first two games, and has looked good.

He has looked fine outside of the UM game, especially for a true freshman.

Wrong. he has had more carries than that, and has looked great when given the ball. He is very talented, anyone can see that.

Saban said he got carried away with all of the attention he got after that game. He's also the second RB and a Freshman. He should match the production that Ingram/Richardson had their first year, though he'll only end up with like 6 or 7 TDs at the most this year.

solid, nothing special like i said. He has only been over 5 yards a carry against FAU.

yeah, but he was Hershell Walker Jr on here after week 1

BOOM

he had 1 carry in each of the first 2 games. 6 against Arkansas in garbage time and 5 against FAU. Jury 1000% still out. He looks small and upright to me.

UGA only uses 3 Gurley- freshman, Marshall- freshman and Malcolme-sophomore. Seems to be working out for them pretty good.

Exactly!

Bama is ranked #1 in the nation and this moron of an LSU fan just can't stand it. By the way LSU drops out of the top 15 when UF beats dat AZZZ this weekend.
