He could very well get on the field this season with his talent. I've heard he's a little slow in realizing that he's on a team full of Damian Harrises (i.e. all-stars) as opposed to being the biggest fish in a small pond. He'll come around.

Hope he takes it the right way and not the wrong way like a former RB we had. Disillusionment can lead to bitterness or it can lead to motivation. Hopefully he picks the latter.

Me too. For many of these kids, they`re young enough to not have been exposed to many of the truly humbling experiences in life. That`s understandable. Humility, if it happens, almost always comes with age and experience. Sort of like wisdom.

I'm ok with him thinking he is the all star on the team...he is a true frosh. I expect to see him on the field this fall making contributions.

He looks like an upscale Tyren Jones: compact power, good vision, quick feet and good instincts. Maybe the best RB recruit of the Saban era. Could be a key figure this season.

I imagine a lot have those issues these days.

Yes...and to be great you have to think that way.. You need an ego of sorts. But in a group like this, you gotta keep that to yourself

From several coaches at several levels, I've heard that this is the chief downside to recruiting highly-regarded athletes. Assuming your sources are accurate (and I have no reason to doubt them), young Mr. Harris is far from alone in this attitude.

He'll come around (Kenyan Drake), or he won't (Tyren Jones). While I hope common sense prevails, it remains his choice.
