Is this the highest contributing freshmen class ever at Bama?

Seriously. Looking at the contributions, these frosh are all over the field.

The team always seems to get younger and younger so I would say yes.

Yup... That's why if you make it to Jr, and Senior.. you better be good enough to steal playing time from Freshmen!

Other than Cam Robinson I'm not seeing a ton of freshman. I guess Stewart showed up, those he's a RS Frosh.

We have seen very little out of SDH, Hand and some other freshmen.

You really going to leave out JK Scott?

I don't know, 2008, still seems up there for me; Ingram Hightower, and Julio standing out as freshmen as starters or co-starters; Barron being a huge contributor on special teams. Smelley contributed, Dareus played in 8 games, and was used in 3rd and long situations replacing Cody (who was also from that recruiting class but a JUCO); Upshaw played in every game;

In terms of immediate impact true freshmen, I don't think you can beat 2008. But, there was a mix of veterans from the Shula years and guys Saban brought in, so the team itself wasn't that inexperienced.

This year, the team overall is very young and inexperienced. Take Blake Sims for instance, he's a 5th year senior, but a first time starter. He is inexperienced even if he's been there a while, AG is another key first time starter. So, when you take those type of guys, and then you mix in the freshman you do have a lot of youth and inexperience on the field.

Just thinking about most of our best players leave after 3 years. Seems like as long as this continues we will always be on the young side. Bama and LSU are the only 2 teams in the nation that has a lot of Jrs. and RS Soph. leaving early for the NFL draft seemingly ever year.
