Quote Alabama landed its third five-star rated prospect for the Class of 2013 when Yulee, Florida running back Derrick Henry announced his commitment to the Crimson Tide in a televised ceremony at his high school. "The way Coach Saban has his program, the way his players are when they come out, it's amazing. My position playing running back with Mark (Ingram) and Trent (Richardson) what they did there and what T.J. (Yeldon) has already done there. They way they run their program, it's like a business-style program. That's their mentality and how they approach everything, even in the classroom." http://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2012/09/5-star_running_back_derrick_he.html Title: Re: "Five-star athlete Derrick Henry set to choose between Alabama, Tennessee at 2 p.m." Post by: Merk on September 28, 2012, 02:32:49 PM He chose the Tide!!!

Title: Re: 5-star running back Derrick Henry commits to Alabama Post by: hscoach on September 28, 2012, 08:27:17 PM Playing on one of the ESPN stations now
Title: Re: 5-star running back Derrick Henry commits to Alabama Post by: Catch Prothro on September 28, 2012, 09:05:12 PM Playing on one of the ESPN stations now Yep, on ESPNU. He plays for Yulee, the home team. I've been watching him. He had over 100 yards and two TDs by halftime.First thing you notice, he's a big dude. 6'3", over 240 lbs., and he's probably still growing. He is a man among boys in HS. I wonder, given his size, if he'll remain at RB at the college level. He's listed as an "athlete" per ESPN, and might make a great LB given his combination of size and speed. Also, because of his size, he will have a harder time trying to make quick cuts and find an open gap, and he'll have to work on that in college. But there's no denying his athleticism. He's a Superfreak. Title: Re: 5-star running back Derrick Henry commits to Alabama Post by: bama87 on September 28, 2012, 09:47:07 PM I think Henry could play an H back. Kind of like Smelley did, more of a receiver type. He says he is going to play RB. He will be load.
Title: Re: 5-star running back Derrick Henry commits to Alabama Post by: Jamos on September 28, 2012, 09:57:21 PM If he is as good in the classroom as he is on the football field, he shouldn't have any problems getting playing time at Bama. ;)

Kind of like Smelley did, more of a receiver type. He says he is going to play RB. He will be load. He could make a great H Back, if he can catch. He's already bigger than Smelley.Title: Re: 5-star running back Derrick Henry commits to Alabama Post by: 2Stater on September 28, 2012, 10:16:08 PM If he is as good in the classroom as he is on the football field, he shouldn't have any problems getting playing time at Bama. ;) I sure hope that is not an issue.
