[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 988052, member: 844"] I think there is another factor that comes into play, esp. for running backs. They think of the game like mileage on a vehicle or treadware on tires. Meaning they only have so many meaningful snaps to play and they want to save those to maximize their ROI. Backs don't want 25 carries a game as much anymore in college as they might have in prior eras. So waiting your turn until you are a junior or senior makes fiscal sense if you believe you have a legit shot at making it in the NFL. I guarantee the pros are aware of the second and third teamers in Tuscaloosa or Columbus even if we are not. I agree that the path to the NFL is just as good playing at BDS as it is anywhere else. If you have that level of talent the pros will find you. I am one of those who thinks Gibbs did not improve his draft position one iota by making the switch to Bama although many others here feel differently. Maybe escaping the culture here at the time made it a wise choice to depart but it made no real $$$ sense to do so. [/QUOTE]
