Poll: Marvin Constant or Dont’a Hightower?

[AlexanderFan]

Simple question, not an easy answer

 

[TiderJack]

One was an A-A and the others career got cut short before it even got started practically. Marvin had potential but we will never know and Donta is now an All-Pro.

The sample size for Constant is too small for me to give him an edge over Hightower. But he was a dynamic player before his injury.

 

[Power Eye]

I feel like this is a trick question, that it's supposed to be harder than it appears. I would say it's the equivalent to asking Dennis Riddle or Trent Richardson.

 

[TideEngineer08]

I'm still not sure what the question is.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

I think it's very easy.

Herb Score or Bob Lemon?

One is in the Hall of Fame. The other is in the Hall of What Might Have Been If He Didn't Get Hit By A Line Drive Off His Face.

You're a bad man, @AlexanderFan.

 

[colbysullivan]

Umm, it’s a VERY easy answer...

Injuries to both, but one All-American and All-Pro. Hightower.

I have to go with Hightower. However, I remember Constant well. It was so sad that horrific injury cut his career short. IMO, he was on his way to being one of the next great "Bama linebackers. We don't know that for sure, but that is what many felt.

Whatever the question, I'll go with Constant. He is a Bama Legend still passionate about his alma mater:

 

[AlexanderFan]

I have to come clean: I screwed up the choice. I was thinking Dont’a, then backed out and went with Rolando, but got busy doing other things and came back and had the title in before I realized.

sadly, I can’t even find Marvin’s stats to extrapolate. Both are physical freaks, and using nfl prosperity is against the rules.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Btw - I loved Marvin.

Next poll:

Tua or Marc Guillon?

Joe Namath or Brandon Avalos?

You’re close

I’ve already owned up to my mistake as well.

OK but the end result on college only is still a massive landslide and I know you came clean...... Someone did actually vote for Marvin.

I just did too just so he or she wouldn't feel lonely

I was teaching classes at Bama during Marvin's time, and I had him in class one semester. He was a fine young man and a soft-spoken, gentle giant. His injury against LSU still represents much to me what it means to give your all for the team.

 

[Probius]

I voted for Hightower like nearly everyone else, but I like the question. I was at the game in which Constant was injured and ended his career on one play. It was so sad and he gave so much to the team. In his last play as a Bama player, he saved the game against LSU and won the west for Bama. I'll never forget him. He will always be a Bama legend.
