Tate's NFL potential

Just wanted to go on the record as saying Ben Tate will be one HELL of an NFL running back. Picture Michael Turner from the Atlanta Falcons. He is big and FAST and will be great. I've been thinking this for a while but just now thought to put it in writing... i may even write a column about it in the future. If he'd have had the same opportunity last year as he did this year, he'd be more in the Heisman race than Mark Ingram at Alabama.

In terms of NFL potential, Tate may be the best Auburn has had since Bo Jackson. He's every bit as good as Rudi Johnson was, just with much better speed. He reminds me of a faster Stephen Davis.
