Bama board, but it is pretty crazy how well Bama has recruited that position this year

Obviously with the success of UA's running backs every year if you're a running back you want to go there but would you want to be one of 4 coming in or go somewhere you know you might could start from day 1 if you're one of them?
Either way thats crazy and bad news for SEC defenses

It's been unreal. They all do something a little bit different which I like a lot. We're going to have a ton of options.
That being said, I'd trade them all for Fournette next year.

I have to think that if they land Kamara before NSD that our chances of flipping Tenpenny go up exponentially.

Tenpenny is going to BAMA, does not matter where Kamara decides to go.

Threads like this are ruining this board.

I don't think he flips personally but its a different story with Kamara in the fold no matter what you would want to admit.

Tyren Jones is going to be the best in the group, hands down

Absolutely sick. It drives me crazy that UT cant land a single RB of that caliber. We will have one of the best lines in the country next season and can't get ONE top running back, yet they are heading to Alabama and Ole miss in droves.
I know UT has been terrible but damn, it seems like it would be a golden opportunity at a big time school.

The Custiss kid from Lovejoy is better. I'm impressed by TJ but he's not on the same level as the others.

Bama does what I think more offenses should do. And that's get back to having a primary and backup running back. A leader and a successor. Most teams do running back by committee, and I think that is the absolute worst way to establish a good ground game. Nutt did that and it looks like Freeze believes in that mentality too.
Players need to get warm. They need to get in a groove. They need the touches and experience at gameplay speed.
That's how you nurture a good running back system. Last coach that did that for us was Tub, and that's how Deuce developed. Haven't seen it since. Not even McCluster was an every-down back.

Don't know about that. Kamara is being recruited as a slot type hybrid guy. Not a true running back. A percy harvin role.

Bama told him on his official that wasn't the case and were recruiting him as a true RB.

They are all ranked in the top 75 players in the country for any position.
