3.48 GPA and 22ACT

I saw him play against Mountain Brook, and his stats say he had a little bit over 100 yds on just only 18 carries and had 2 rush TDs! I'd nice real nice pickup knowing how well my alma mater is big on D

"I like to run hard, like (Seattle Seahawks') Marshawn Lynch," Howard said. "I don't let the first guy bring me down. I like to punish the defense."

Like Jim Brown said, "Just because I have the ball doesn't mean I don't get to hit people."

He and his teammate from Gardendale are both pretty talented from what I understand. And again, I like McGee and company going after all these local guys. Helps build interest in the program locally. It's not going to fill up Legion Field overnight, but if we had done more of this over the last 10-15 years, I think we would have developed more of a local following.

I agree with that. Obviously, something has to change!

I think they scale broke, it said I weigh 228

3.4 gpa and they scale broke

GPA stands for Gardendale Point Average.

Where is the bitching that he isn't a defensive lineman? lol

at 6 ft 230lbs he may bulk himself into a nice fullback

Watching our defensive line last year was pretty funny, if you weren't a UAB fan.

At that size, he would be the type rb that Tulsa has had and ran thru us with.
