Title: BR: Freshman Demetrius Hart Headed for Expanded Role With Tide
Post by: pmull on June 06, 2011, 10:43:35 AM
I have a feeling Hart will be a big time player for us this year.

Quote
Hart put up some epic numbers for his Dr Phillips High football team.  He amassed 2,224 yards rushing and had 3,394 all-purpose yards and fifty touchdowns.  That included 12 consecutive games with 100 or more yards rushing.

A Rivals four star rated running back he was rated the number one all-purpose back in America.  While I'm not sure what criteria are used to judge "all purpose" I'm sure the 3,394 yards had something to do with it.

I'm nervous about our RB depth if Grant leaves. You can never have too many RB's. Over the years, I have seen college teams lose 3 and 4 RB's during the season, even in the NFL.

TRUST ME Marshal with Trent, who'll get the elephants share of carries, Lacy, Dee, and Jalston Fowler we'll be MORE than fine, its the reason both Goode and Grant are transferring

I just looked at the roster. Everyone knows about Richardson, Lacy and Hart. Jason Fowler was a highly recruited fullback. We also have Ben Howell, and Nick Tinker listed as RB's and I do not know anything about them. They could be walk ons. Blake Sims is an athlete and could see time at several positions including RB. Brent Calloway was recruited as a LB but he could add depth at RB.

I hope Grant does not leave.

Well I can under Grant leaving he wants playing time and we keep loading with better and better backs. It tells him he won't be playing except on special teams. I wish they would stay have speed on Special Teams. RTR!

Hart will be a very special player at Bama, he's not big in size but he can make the big plays.

Per one of the coaches, if Fowler can learn to block with the tenacity that he has when he runs the football, he will be a good one as well.

Rumors surfacing strongly suggesting Grant has already enrolled at Auburn. I guess time will tell
