Alvin Kamara Appreciation Thread (merged)

[livefaith]

There is no doubt Hurd would have been MVP had he played in the NFL this season according to CBJ and many on this board since he was clearly the better running back

Probably. But they'll come to their senses when Jalen wins BigXII poy from the tight end position this year and is a top 5 draft pick. Been calling for TE position change for 4 years now.

2 short for tight end

NFL players vote Alvin Kamara Sporting News Rookie of the Year for 2017 | NFL | Sporting News

The media award next week gets more attention, but IMO this one means more. Why? Because it comes from his peers. The fact other NFL players voted Alvin ROY by an overwhelming margin shows just how special of a talent he is. There is nothing more important than the respect of your peers. And Alvin definitely has that.

Then Brady would have even more MVPs.

Awesome

Good for AK - saw on ESPN NFL show last night some idiot had Fournette as his NFL ROY pick

 

[Grand Vol]

I heard he bribed all of them with Airheads.

Just watched Kamara's rookie season highlights. Someone should go to prison for fraud on that last coaching staff for not using this guy correctly.

Also Hurd's mama...remember how she told us that we would all see the reason that AK was second string now that he was in the league?

I would bet real money Hurd's rookie stats will come nowhere close to Kamara's. IF he makes the league.

Congratulations are due the young man.

We're proud of him here on Rocky Top. He has represented both himself and us well.

RB's only have so many hits in a body.
Being underutilized by BJ was probably the best thing that could have happened to Alvin.
He hit the league fresh, and balled out !

His play making ability re-energized that Saint's team

Saints should pay half Butch's buyout because of the favor he did them by hiding AK talent.

Don't think you'll get many takers on that bet.

Don't think you'll get many takers on that bet.

Hurds mom will match hurds salary on the bet and if you win, you have to fight her to get it.

Well deserved!

He has been a great representative to the Vol family. I hope he has a very successful and healthy career.

Still baffles me on how underutilized he was under Butch...

 

[UT Hill Man]

He's such a winner!

Was wondering how long it would take for the Butch Bashers to break out.

Congrats Alvin!!
