Appearing on Sirius XM NFL, Alabama head coach Nick Saban said TE O.J. Howard "never had the offense to take advantage of him."
Lane Kiffin and Steve Sarkisian's offenses tend to focus on one primary offensive threat, and it was never Howard. Plus, the quarterback play was not great during Howard's time with the Crimson Tide. "He should have had more production here, through no fault of his," Saban said. Howard's low production, 114 catches for 1,726 yards and seven touchdowns, will stand out to many. We expect him to be a top 12 selection.
