'13 FL RB Derrick Henry (Bama commit)

If he comes to UT he's the next Herschel Walker and the dad is doing the right thing. Now that he's going to Bama we arent missing on much, he isnt that fast, his dad's a jackass and he will be buried in the depth chart at Bama. Volnation logic at its best.

I have no idea what he will or will not do at Alabama. But, when you write something it is permanent. Reading those twitter comments from his dad shows me what I need to know about his father. That is classless. Keep quiet and let your son do his on talking on the field. If he goes to the NFL, he will make a mistake and you can't go beat up every writer who is negative. It goes with the territory. Man needs to chill and quit going around wanting to kick everyones' butt.

He's a stud. His dad's a jackass
 
He is agood player but right now it is a man versus boys just like you saw on Friday. Once the playing field evens out we will see. If you have not been to Yulee area you would understand about his fathers attitude. The only other player that I can remember from near that area was the Flagler kid that went to Clemson a while back.
 
Spot on OW.

What most people don't seem to understand is how difficult it can be to have Senior Leadership when there are almost zero seniors that play.

Herman Lathers, Dallas Thomas & Prentiss Waggner are the only ones that come to mind.

Z-Ro and Mych as well.

Who is Tom Luginbill?
 
Used to think Henry would be Bamas next great MLB.. I think now he will probably be Bamas version of Vernon Davis... Not a bad thing but not a running back either.. A bit ironic to because Vernon Davis types are probably more valuable in the NFL these days..
 
Isn't Luginbill the 'color man' for one of the All American games (Army/Under Armour)?
 
Elite speed is separated by .05 of a second in the 40. I question the accuracy of the 4.45 time. Like I said, Henry doesn't run a 4.4.

Agreed. He runs between 4.55 and 4.6 usually.That track at the SPARQ competition had all the kid's times faster than they usually would be.

This is why I don't usually post in the recruiting forum. Anytime one of the top prospects commits elsewhere the "he ain't no good" "we didn't want him." Comments start. If Alabama took his commitment I'm sure he could've contributed to our team.
I don't follow recruiting. I watched one clip of him and think he'll either be a TE or LB.. 6-3, he isn't playing running back...

He is plenty fast, but people have to remember how big he is. He may not have elite speed, but he will be a great RB.
 
UF fans admit that Henry is faster in a straight line than our prize, Kelvin Taylor. They do claim that he isn't "quick" and doesn't accelerate and change directions as well as KT.

According to ESPN, Derrick Green (4.31) is a lot faster than both of them.

Alvin Kamara (4.55) is faster than both of these guys too.

Just by looking at film and watching the game last Friday, we pretty much know that KT doesnt have breakaway speed. He has great vision and runs with great power. Henry doesnt change direction as quick because of his height. He does run stronger than he did in the past, he also has very good balance and great vision
