anyone know why Kamara got processed at Bama? Guy is an absolute stud.
 
Bama, like Georgia, is a power running offense that prefers the big backs. Kamara would have thrived in the big 12 or out west.

Had a knee enjoy that sidelined him awhile, combined with off the field issues that got him kicked out of practice and unable to participate in bowl activities. Also was part of the same class as Derrick Henry, and TJ Yeldon and Kenyan Drake was the class prior. Pretty loaded depth chart to overcome when you stay off in Sabans doghouse

That coupled with Saban preferring Drake. In hindsight looks like a bad call but Drake was explosive in college.
 
Simply put, Kamara and Bama was a Terrible Mix, in Scheme and in Culture. He admitted himself he commited to Bama because it was the best offer on the Table, and wasn't thinking of the best Fit. But also to be fair he wasn't the best fit at Tennessee either. Would have excelled at a Clemson or Oklahoma type program



That being said, Screw the Saints. At least Today

2 Atlanta area Kids. Thing was Drake is a "Yes Sir, No Sir" Type who just shows up to work. Alvin isn't a Bad kid per se but him a d Saban didn't mesh



Funny, the Best Back to Come out of Bama during the Saban Era played at Tennessee
