I would say UF, They don't have a back like him.

Maybe. Offensive system is unsettled.

I don't think lsu would make a run at him. We've stopped going too hard at jucos and the '15 rbs were recruiting we've been recruiting for a while now. It wouldn't go over well politically.

LSU will have Fournette, Brosette, and probably Guice.

I would look into Georgia and maybe even Ole Miss.

Really, the UGA RB situation really isn't all that much more inviting than Bama's. I'd take him in a heartbeat though

Yes, but what an opportunity for UF to bring in an elite back while they get their footing. I don't think they have anyone for Jovon to worry about.

Hell Tre got 1000 yds in a 2012 shitshow. Jovon could definitely get that I would think. I don't know enough about their OL.

Their oline recruiting has been solid so Jovon at worst should get decent blocking.

UF/USCe and UGA all seem to make sense at the moment. Bama has so many solid options at RB while he is there that one and done seems unlikely

Well, Georgia is likely to lose Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall to the draft next year, and anyone under them is likely to be "unknown" by people other than Georgia fans (not saying they won't be good). Alabama will lose TJ Yeldon and Kenyan Drake, but will still have Derrick Henry returning as a junior and the favorite to be the starting running back.

Everybody is already hyping Derrick Henry as the next best thing based on what he did against Oklahoma.

Yeah but UGA just picked up two more top RB's.

I could see USCe and UF. If I was Jovon those would be my two choices.

I know, but neither will see the field as much as Derrick Henry. TJ Yeldon and Derrick Henry are going to be the featured running backs for Alabama next year. TJ Yeldon will go pro, while Derrick Henry will return.

Georgia will lose Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall, and they will be the featured running backs. Their starter for 2015 will be completely up in the air.

He's not scared of competition. I'm having a tough time thinking of someone in the SEC that he wouldn't push to second string.

Assuming Gurley goes pro of course.

I get that, but they are still two top RB's who will be ready to go. I am just saying who does IF or USCe have? They just look like a better fit. Now I am not saying JR can't beat out the two young RB's, I just think UF looks more appealing.

I just said that in my last post. I don't think he is scared at all. However, Derrick looks very good and Yeldon is good. Why go and share so many touches if I am possibly one and done? I want to be the feature back. Bama makes the least sense imo.


With that said it sounds like that is where he ends up. I still wish he had been good at AU. He was one of my favorite recruits, He said he will make Auburn fans forget Yeldon. I never would have guessed it might be because he unseats him as the starter...

Yeldon will be gone too. I see a two headed monster of Robinson and Henry for Bama in 2015.

Don't think Marshall will go pro next year.

Yeah I forgot Yeldon will leave for the draft. It would be a dangerous combo. Frick you Bama

Henry and Jovon Robinson running behind the oline we brought in this year. Bama stacked. SEC fricked.

We've got Davis who is probably gone and then Brandon Wilds/David Williams. It's conceivable he could beat them out, but it wouldn't be easy. We didn't take a RB last class, so we need a true freshman or two more than a JUCO looking for one year.
