🏈 ESPN: The weakest position group for each top 25 team

[252BAMA]

"Mark Schlabach's 2016 Way-Too-Early Top 25 has Alabama and Florida State in the top two spots, but each team has big questions to answer this spring.
Using those rankings, here is the weakest position group for each of our top 25 teams."

Surprise! Surprise! LSU's is not QB!

Really... they chose RB for us over QB...

This is the first year we haven't really had a proven RB coming back. Both our returning backs are relatively unproven, Bo with 104 yds and Damien with 157 yds. That being said, they are both 5* RB's and we have the best RB coach in the nation. I don't have any concerns with either of these guys.

Our QB situation, is in a similar spot...but we've done well with our QB's stepping up.

I guess they got tired of picking the QB position for us the last two years and whiffing. Agree with @planomateo, while unproven, they are talented and they do have the best RB coach in America coaching them up.

Do not know exactly what this means, but would go a long ways to strengthening RB position. I'm hoping it means he made the extra point or two needed on ACT but haven't seen anything 'official'.

The only 'official' thing we'll see is him practicing when the fall semester starts, right?

BOL reported a few days ago one of their sources said he'd made the score on the ACT, and the general feeling around the football program is all he needs to do is maintain his GPA.

BJ's high school coach has said all along he felt he'd qualify; very confident in Emmons and didn't expect any issues. We know he's been taking extra classes and was only a hair away from qualifying as it was. I've not really given this much thought or worry. This staff has a pretty good track record on these borderline guys.

(I can't recall who it was, but I know it was one of the guys that covers UGA ... recall him stating—without any doubt—Emmons was headed to JUCO. As soon as I read that, and took into account who said it, I felt it was 100% sure thing he'd make it on campus ... one of those "if he said it won't happen, it will" kind of scenarios.)
