I mean to be honest, if a player is a bust it’s not Bama’s fault. Lacy ran for 1k 3 straight years in the league. He just gained so much weight. He wasn’t discipline in the off season. It’s not Bama’s fault. Richardson ran for over 900 yards his rookie year. He got traded from a terrible...

He was good but according to @Dwinstitles elite players are basically HOFs. Which I disagree with. You can be an elite player who dominates college but things don’t pan out in the pros.

I was a kid watching Vinnie. He was good but he didn’t dominate the NFL but didn’t he play 21 seasons? That’s an amazing feat in itself.

Oh Reggie was good but I was just using him as an example for @Dwinstitles. Are we going to say hello wasn’t an elite player in college just because he wasn’t an HOF in the nfl?

This doesn’t make sense. I bet you would take a Dorsey, Torretta, Vinnie, etc. Some of the greatest college players didn’t do much in the NFL. Reggie Bush, Lawrence Phillips, Vince Young, etc. Even on our 01 Canes, Reed wasn’t even the 1st DB taken. Rumph & Buchanan went ahead of him. They were...

A player can be elite in college without doing much in the pros. I think if an athlete becomes an AA then he’s elite.

Then he’s dangerous. Smh you can play that kid all over the field and never take him out.

You don’t have to be a burner to be an effective RB. You don’t have to be burner to be an elite college rb. I’m not a rb coach but I think field vision and patience are more important than speed. Laveon Bell and Mark Ingram werent speedsters. Monte Ball, James Conner, Clyde Helaire, Kadeem Carey...

Exactly! It’s not out of the realm. And as long as they continue to get decent coaching they’ll start having more talent. Unfortunately, coaching had fallen off at the HBCU level but it looks like it’s getting better. I actually remembered back in 07 Hampton University had quite a few guys in...

Jacksonville State is not an HBCU. You post that a lot but I had to finally address it… JSU had 2 players drafted in the 1st round in 2000. Around that time top talent waned off as far as going to HBCUs. Next, this is the first time in the modern recruiting era that heralded recruits are...

This is true.

Hahaa exactly. I don’t think this is a typical process where a coach is trying to ascend to fbs

I agree but I wouldn’t surprised if stayed for the reasons you gave. I also wouldn’t be surprised if he retired after 3 more seasons

Yea I remember seeing his film and was like, “where did he come from…”

Man you’re right. Some may have that mindset but football is a contact sport. I’m not going to unnecessarily take a beaten for a quick Mil haha.

It’s a long shot for everyone. And depending on the school it’s even harder. However, we can’t compare RB. That’s a position that has been devalued for the last decade. There are other positions that offer a slim but better chance than other positions. Positions like OL, DB, & LB offer those...

Man you refuse to let the Hasslewood thing go hahaa. Yea you made it known that you weren’t fond of him. As for the NIL, I like it. It’s still in its infancy stage though. Not too many people know what it entails and there isn’t a governing body to regulate it. At the end of the day, it’s...

I think @Liberty City El is a bit tough on them. For what they want to do in college, I agree they are amongst the best at evals and I agree they are the best at acquiring talent. They had some unknowns or athletes who didn’t come in with much fanfare like Josh Jacobs, Eddie Jackson, & Blake...

Haha I don’t really think for either of it had to do with bags. In Hasselwood case, why would any top WR go to UGA? And let’s not forget how stacked Bama was at WR? Jeudy, Smith, Waddle, Metchie, & Riggs… Sheesh… As for Hunter, he’s a kid that moves to the beat of his own drum. FSU has been dead...

I’m having a great day. I don’t understand why you added that. Once again, JSU played the schedule they was dealt and dominated. Y’all continue to over exaggerate the competition level. If players have the size and measurables they will be drafted. I can’t say which round but that’s why you have...
