They've beaten us two years in a row or have you forgotten? And they make it three. Croome produces good backs so If he wants to be a RB why not look at State. The last NFL back Bama produced was Alexander. Under Croome Norwood has his best year and may be Atlanta's starting back this year.

I wouldn't see him playing RB. With Richardson coming in and the stable that is all ready there just doesn't seem viable. So if he wants to play RB, then MSU would probably be the best fit for him.
Do you have any stats on him Saevick? He must be a little slow (for an RB) or very strong (for an RB) if they are looking at him to play LB instead of RB.

Conner is physically gifted, with a great blend of size and straight-line speed. He's tall and isn't a naturally fluid runner, but he could develop into a workhorse college back in a power-running scheme. Has typical north-south rushing skills, and is difficult to arm tackle when he squares up his shoulders and runs downhill. He's basically a one-gear back, but he hits the hole fast and can be a load to bring down after he gains momentum. Shows adequate shiftiness through traffic, but prefers to follow his blocks, lower his shoulder and run through smaller defenders. Has superior upper- and lower-body strength and power. Picks up good production after contact and runs with deceptive balance, despite his taller frame. Finishes runs and keeps his legs churning. Can wear down a defense and make defensive backs think twice about coming up in run support when he reaches the second level. Has mostly straight-line athleticism and lacks the lateral quickness to consistently avoid defenders. Could struggle to pick and slide through traffic in a zone scheme. Needs to regularly run with good body tilt at the next level to remain productive after contact and avoid big hits. Lacks a second gear and burst when he finds an open seam, and he isn't very elusive in space. Conner is a tough, blue-collar competitor and a hard-nosed runner. If his skills don't develop sufficiently on offense, he could make one heckuva strong safety or outside linebacker and special-teamer.

The idea of Richardson becoming a feature back in the program is not one to bank on. Saban loves RBBC.
