Sizzle 3,920 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 1 minute ago, TigerTale said: I thinks it's the fumbling problem that causes many to downgrade him from SEC caliber player. He definitely had a fumbling problem but you can’t put up the stats he had in the seasons he started and not say he’s not SEC caliber. Brandon Jacobs had to transfer to Southern Illinois because he couldn’t get playing time behind Ronnie and Cadillac. Does that mean Brandon Jacobs wasn’t an SEC caliber back? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abw0004 10,134 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I wish Whitlow the absolute best! My favorite play of his was in the Washington game for the winning drive. He was not going to be denied that touchdown by the free safety. War Eagle Boobie! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

api1957 1,783 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I wonder how many times he dropped his luggage on the way. I kid, I kid. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely strong arguments for why he wasn't the best back on Auburn's roster, but the kid had over 1,800 yards in two seasons and 18 touchdowns while playing in the SEC. I don't understand statements like this. behind a questionable OL to add to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamZilla_15 22 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Got to thinking randomly last night about “whatever happened to Boobie Whitlow”? So I did some research and couldn’t find much on him, but going by the 2020 season stats for Western Illinois he didn’t even play this season. I hate it for him because he was a good RB and showed flashes at times then transferred to a nobody FCS program and didn’t even play. Anyone know what the deal was? Just curious.

Was going to be passed up, so he took his ball and went home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was never an SEC back but he should do well there Very odd take considering he literally helped us win SEC games. I don't feel like looking up his stats, but I would say he has done more than enough to prove he is an SEC back. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, he was definitely an SEC back. (Uh oh... I might've just jumped into another "adequate" vs "above average" vs "great" melee.) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was highly critical of Boobie and the entire RB room the last couple years, but he is definitely a capable SEC back. He was never top tier SEC back material, but capable. I will say this, I would have loved to have him as the backup to Tank last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
