🏈 Kenyan Drake in 2014?

[BamaFan334]

I respect the opinions of a lot of people in this blog, so I wanted to see what y'all thought about Kenyan Drake in 2014?

I just got done watching the Alabama-LSU game from this past year, and he was simply amazing, like he was most of the time he touched the ball through the season. I don't think any of us are 100% sure what happened to him in the Auburn game or why he wasn't in the Oklahoma game, but his potential may be better than anyone we have and even rival Lacy, Richardson, and possibly Ingram's production given 15-20 carries a game. Different style of running, but I'm talking production wise. That's my opinion atleast. With the hype and one game emergence of Henry against Oklahoma and Yeldon holding the torch, what's going to happen to Drake? I hate to say this because I really like Yeldon a lot, but I feel as if Drake is more of a runner for us and can offer more than Yeldon has. That's so hard to say considering Yeldon is over 1,000 yards for two straight seasons and is a stud. Is there any way he gets thrown from the #1 spot, and Drake get that spot, move Yeldon to #2, and Henry spell the team like Drake did in 2013? I'm sure it'll take a lot of hard work and staying out of coach's dog house, but what do y'all think?

If Drake could have avoided whatever issues he had last fall, I think he could have overtaken Yeldon for the #1 spot or at least had a 1A and 1B like Ingram and Richardson were. Drake has a ton of talent; if he has a bit of success this fall, I'm sure he'll bolt for the NFL.

I don't think he will have much of a career at Alabama unless Yeldon heads to the NFL and he stays for his senior year as number 2 with Henry

Just my thought but I think we see a offense unlike any we've seen since Saban had been here......
