Everybody looks good in the highlights... they should show all those plays he took off last year. I always wondered what Akers and Marvin Wilson thought of Jimbo leaving like he did

He wasn't one of the players taking plays off. He had an legit ankle injury that lingered through most of the season. I think he's a good back. FSU never has bum RB's. But the hype that came with him I didn't understand.

I always wondered the same thing too, but they were prolly better off, Jimbo was running that program to the ground

I remember he was killing it at the camps

I remember we passed on Ettiene cause we were all in for Akers. Then when Cam picked FSU we tried to go after dude. Man was that dumb looking back.
I think it was @Woodwerkz who said Saban suggested Ettinne to Clemson, and that’s where that last minute push came from. Ettinne was bama’s Back up plan if Najee Harris had flipped to Michigan.

Edit here to the post

So word is that RB Travis Etienne, who committed to Clemson, was Alabama's back up if they didn't land Najee Harris. After knowing Harris was theirs and Clemson looking for a RB take after having Richardson decommit (really his grades were garbage and Dabo them said nah)... Saban hit Dabo up and put us on his radar because he didn't want LSU to get him.:mjgrin:

Yeah camps are good but it doesn't really mean anything. Countless players killed camps and you didn't hear much from them after that. Don't get me wrong. I think he's a good back but I didn't think he was all that.


Plus too many FSU were fans trying to compare him to Dalvin. I knew he wasn't going to be nowhere close to him.

That's those northern FL FSU fans for you. Should just stick to mudding and fishing.

Watch this video

Yeah it's all Willie's fault to the idiots out there.

I remember all these morons were talking about what had Willie done in his career and that he had a losing record when FSU hired him.

Non football knowledge having mutha fukkas couldn't see that he fixed programs that were a mess and that were in dire straits when he got there. Every place he left they were way better. After watching this video I'd say it was a big mess.

Can't wait to see what these fakkits got to say when he wins this year. Probably will come up with some more ho babble

I know it’s early but I was looking at the crystal ball for the top 21’ guys and UW is predicted to land like 3 or 4 of the top 10 players :gucci:

2021 class has a few top players from the state of Washington. Plus Huard's dad and uncle played at Washington.

Is this true?


meh, that’s true for any RB. His issue is he dances around a bit and after his initial burst, he getting hawked down by the defender. He is like Devonta was his first two years on campus. You blow on him like Lance Stephenson (:dame:) and he’s bumbling stumbling
