Just stay healthy my man. Experience and depth at RB, could be an Achilles heal, imo. I think I know what Bo can do, produce like our our recent string, but past him I do not know. I am hoping that Harris proves the real deal this year.

I recently went back and watched the entire 2015 season and, even with a brace, Bo looks a lot like a lot like DH in his running style. Not exactly the same, but he is a hoss to tackle. Damien Harris is a nice change up, smaller but shiftier. Bama will be fine at running back.

WOW! Look at the arms on that guy!:eek2:
I hope he watched how Henry prevented injury this year. Henry had a knack at avoiding injury with the way he played. I expect Bo to be as good as our string, but it looks like he will be the first RB in a long time that will play two years as our 1st string RB since Ingram. Is that correct?

Ingram had a better sophomore year, and shared time with Trent as a junior. Maybe this will be the case.

To be fair, he showed up on campus huge:

While I was impressed with his size, it was not until I saw his hip flex and hard nose mentality til I was won over. Others had him scouted much better than me, I was still crying over losing Jones because it took so long to really see BO. He IS the real deal, no doubt.

I think he is going to run with more agility and quickness than Henry based on what little I have seen him play - maybe even more physical too. I think Henry may have the edge on him on vision and anticipation just from longer experience playing the position. But I think he will run better in traffic more like Lacy but bigger and faster.

He doesn't need any more weight. Or muscle if it slows his quickness. I want all his quick moves with the added punch. That will make him almost unstoppable. ..oh and please pick up blitzes and read the hots. I know he is above average at catching the ball.

Damien Harris has been working also. Don't sleep on him.

TJ Yeldon was the last. 2013 & 2014

. So both TJ and Ingram started 2 years, so this will be a 3rd under coach Saban. No that rare then. Good thing is that TJ and Ingram had someone very productive to give a breather, I hope that is the case with Bo.

I agree. Bo definitely has talented guys behind him, although unproven. Damien Harris and BJ Emmons were both extremely highly rated coming out of high school. It's easier to step in and compete as a RB than most other positions.

I seem to recall people highly regarding his receiving skills as well. Can you imagine LB's covering Bo and OJ?

One of the good thing about Bo is that we may see him lining up as WR time to time.... or motioning out from RB. We probably wont see that until later in the season when things are getting intense.

It's crazy we have all those type of playmakers and teams doesn't know how to game plan for all of those guys. We can pretty much focus them into man to man coverage several time or zone coverage that can be exploited. This year maybe Kiffin's the best of all time.

If he can avoid the injury bug, he'll have a huge year. The glimpses we've seen show his potential and then there's his receiving ability that will be almost impossible to defend!
