I would have to say Eddie Jackson. He was a real play-maker. I haven't had a chance to miss him yet, but next year I will probably miss Minkah because he could just do everything. This is a very difficult question to answer to be honest.
I was about to say Norwood as well How many third downs did he convert?!?!?!? Gutsy player!Too many to name, but Kevin Norwood was clutch. The BCSNC game against LSU, and we all remember the Yeldon screen to beat LSU, but Norwood had some clutch receptions to set that up.
He would be a future NFL HOF if Sean Payton figured out how to use him earlier in his career. Ingram is a stud.Mark Ingram in a landslide. I still think he’s the best RB to ever put on that Crimson Jersey.... no offense to any other RB.
I’ve just never seen a player like him....he ran so hard and his legs just kept churning and was so incredibly difficult to tackle. I remember so many times it took several defenders to get him down....like 5,6,7 defenders!!! His Vision was Elite and his Jump-Cut move was unbelievable. He put the whole offense on his shoulders so many times and was the perfect example of an MVP.
He was so good that he was pretty much the sole reason my Mom finally became a big Alabama football fan. She loved him because she thought he was ‘so little’ but the other huge players couldn’t stop him and it got her all fired up...lol... I couldn’t believe it because My Dad and I had tried to get her into Alabama Football for over 20 years before 2008.
I’m also glad that he still comes back to watch our games so much too. It seems like every big game we play in he’s on the sideline motivating and cheering on the players. He gets really fired up too after any rushing TD.
He also takes a special interest in our current RB’s and that position group seems to have a fraternal like pride/honor badge attached to it between all the former and current Coach Burton Burns RB’s.
Mark is just a great person period and has always been an exceptional role model as well as an outstanding ambassador for the University of Alabama.
Man I just love Mark Ingram!! He will always be my favorite player.
Hmm. I love CJ. However, if Corneilus Bennett & Derrick Thomas are considered LBs; they are 2 & 1, respectively.CJ Mosley, maybe our best LB ever.
Wow! I read this thread and his name never came up until now. He was a phenomenal DT. I can't believe I didn't consider him.Jonathan Allen
