Good to see Kenny McIntosh getting some love. He's a dang good tough running back. He was overshadowed by lesser talent in my mind, but maybe this year he'll get to show out some.

If Bigsby had a line, he's be at the top of this list. He's a fun guy to watch run the ball.

Man the expectations are being set high for Gibbs. Seems unrealistic but hey I hope he lives up to all of it..

The linebacking crew can't cover him out of the backfield. So, that leads us to assume Bama's linebacking corps isn't living up to ... ?

I really expect Gibbs to be lethal coming out of the backfield, especially after that first initial block/chip.

Of course not. Just high expectations for someone that we have only seen in a scrimmage and now he is the #2 RB in the draft. I hope he lives up to every bit of it when it is all settled.

I believe his skill set is what makes him rank at that level. Especially for the NFL and playing with the talent that BAMA is only gonna magnify that skill set. Especially if the O-Line can play with some consistency.

In the recent past, It's been a rare thing for our backers to cover a back out of the backfield.

But he has shown it on the field behind much worse talent. Gibbs is everything they say. I've seen him live multiple times at Tech, and on Friday nights when he was in high school.

Yeah... As long as this kid can secure the ball and is competent in pass blocking, he's going to be an absolute star. He's special

FWIW, here is what Steele says about 2021 GT OL. "The OL had 117 career starts, but they posted a disappointing 169 rush ypg with 33 sacks."

And 2021 Bama OL. "Two starters returned and career starts dropped to 54. Bama rushed for their lowest ypg (150) since Saban's first year and allowed nine more sacks than they had in any other year under Saban (41)!"

Is Kendall Milton still there? I thought he looked really good as a freshman, but don't know what happened after that.

Gibbs is going to be a superstar, and is complemented well by the other backs in the Bama stable.

And the Tuscaloosa News publishes this story on Gibbs last night:

Jahmyr Gibbs could be dominant for Alabama football, especially out of this set

When a running back has scary speed and the ability to catch and run like Gibbs, any offensive coordinator would be wise to find mismatches for him.

He is. They claimed he was hurt last year, but he got some work, but most likely fell behind White and Cook. I was never sold on him as soon as I hewrd his dad say (paraphrasing) "we don't want to go to a place and carry the ball 20 times, we want only about 10 carries a game to prolong his NFL future". It just rubbed me the complete wrong way as he's was annoiting his kid as an NFL starter alresdy while he was still in high school, and on top of it not showing any team attitude at all.
