2024 4* RB J'Marion "Phat" Burnette decommits From AU

[ellitor 33,081]

Named a top 10 in November of Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida State, Georgia, Michigan, Penn State, Oregon, Tennessee and Texas.

Cole Pinkston from On3 picked him to AU today with 60% confidence.

Would that be two number one Alabama high school running backs in a row if we got him?

Someone send the man an AU  hat please.

If he keeps that ranking & we land him then yes.

[bigbird 60,477]

Yeah, getting close.

Also, FWIW, we may be leaning towards 2 backs in the class. Not groundbreaking but may explain why the newest momentum for JPB's announcement.

It would be implied that those things have to be true of course.

His junior year numbers are lower than his sophomore year because he had more help this season. His backup was able to take a lot of his carries to help lighten the load, and the team had a passing game that allowed them to be more balanced. 
He also had a serious concussion against Anniston in the third round of the playoffs that cost him the final two games of the season.

Didn’t realize that Burnette and Alvin Henderson (the 5* 2025 RB Caddy is after) are cousins.

There’s been a rumor around Andalusia that Alvin might transfer there. Can you imagine both of them in the same backfield?
