He may be the best, but to say at this point “it’s not close”? How old are you?
Shaun Alexander gained close to 11,000 yards from scrimmage and scored 112 TDs in 9 seasons, of which he barely made appearances in games his 1st and last seasons.

Several other big schools did, too. UGA, FSU, and a few others IIRC.
One of the main reasons he signed with us is bc Saban promised him the opportunity to compete at RB.

It's worse in our case though because he grew up in northeast FL and wanted to be a Gator. In Muschamp's defense though he already had 5* Kelvn Taylor (Fred's son) in that same class but still...

I guess so until Gibbs gets drafted. Ingram was more fundamentally sound though.
Always thought Humphrey was a very talented rb, also. Didn't have the mental side of things/life down, but he reminded me of Payton a bit - not the fastest or biggest, but very adept at all things a rb has to do.

Hes definitely up there if not the best. Every time I see him run I think it's crazy that a man that large is that fast. I would absolutely hate being a LB on the other side.

No. Major Ogilvie was the greatest

Although not at the Henry/Alexander level, Tony Nathan was a solid pro with the Dolphins for a number of year. Good pass-catcher..

I’ll take Henry because he has made the Titans look good with Tannehill at QB.

Never could figure out if this OP was a troll, a half-troll, or just dumb. On that note…

He gets forgotten, doesn't he?
Alexander set numerous NFL and Seattle Seahawks' franchise records and was named the NFL MVP in 2005.
It's a shame he got robbed of a ring that year

Yeah that Super Bowl blew.
