I Know what you mean. The "it" factor is just there. Every guy out there is competitive as hell but not every guy out there is a natural leader. That article shows his leadership skills.

If he does keep developing and still can't beat AD, then we can trade him and get a great draft pick or 2. If AD can't get to another level, we can trade AD for draft pick and have AJ start.

Of course, this is training camp so as well as AJ played, it is camp. AD looked great as well, but again it is camp. Let's see how they do against othe rteams in pre-season and then live in games that count.

This is the Best problem our team could have. You know Alabama was in a slump until AJ came along. Even though he was just on the scout team they all of the sudden became the most dominant force in college football and he won his first ring on the scout team. Obviously that's due to some great recruiting by Saban, but don't factor AJ's leadership of the scout team out of it completely. Even if he stays a 2 for a while, he will make the whole team better by motivating the scout team. Its part of the reason why so many people (myself included) have become fans of this kid. He's just got that "it" factor that no one seems to be able to put into words. 

I can't wait for Friday!
