'13 FL RB Derrick Henry (Bama commit)

Fortenberry said he thinks it's a UT/Bama battle and right now Henry likes Bama a lot.

Wouldn't want it any other way. Henry can choose to ride the pine for Saban for a while or come to Tennessee and be immortalized. Game on!

Hope we get this guy, sounds like a great one.

Those are the running backs on the team but it is not how the depth chart is structured. Henry would be covered by some, but not all of those that you have listed.
 
Yes it is. I put D. Green in there to illustrated he would be buried in depth.

WHat is it then?

Lacy is going to start. Hart blew out his knee last year and is likely at the same point Justin Hunter is. I think Hart is also involved in some transfer rumors, but my recollection of that isn't 100%.

Yeldon will play as well.

Lets fix a few things because reading a roster is not the way to do it.

1) Lacy if healthy but did not compete in spring because of surgery.
2) Hart had a great spring and tearing it up during the summer workouts.
2) Yeldon beast in the spring

Had Hart and Yeldon at 2 because who knows with the way both are looking and if Lacy is not ready they will be 1 and 2

Fowler will be for short yardage mainly but injury could slow him.

Sims has never played RB nor will he. Right now he is once again taking reps at QB to compete for backup

Duncan and Howell at best ST never will see the field as a RB. Niether one btw are on scholarship, They are both walkons.


If Henry picks UA Lacy and Fowler will both be gone.

2013 depth

1) Yeldon
2) Hart
3) Henry, Tenpenny, Jones all battle it out to see who will not get redshirted if all 3 want to stay at RB.

So coming into 2013 if Henry is as good as every UT fan thinks He could easily beat out the other 2 coming in with him and atleast be 3rd on the depth chart as a true freshman.
 
SIAP but what about UF, FSU, and the U with Henry?

It is between 3 schools right now. UA, UGA, and UT. With the consensus believing UA in the end. But he has not commited yet and is still suppose to visit all 3 again. Dawgnight at UGA I believe, UT July 16-18th, and return the end of July or early Aug with Family to UA.

I haven't heard anything about him coming to DN.

Question about Hart for you. Is he the kid that supposedly got into a fight with Xzavier Dickson and he ended pulling a knife on him? I think I heard this last year and you would know for sure if there is any truth to this.

Lol. Consensus meaning all of the Bammer homers you hang out with.
