Terry Grant was Alabama’s burst-and-juice back in the Saban launch era
In the 2007 season, Terry Grant gave Alabama instant big-play pop, rushing for 891 yards and 8 touchdowns while also adding 11 catches for 176 yards and a score, which made him more than just a downhill runner. He was a quick, explosive back who could score from anywhere and hurt defenses as a receiver, but his overall Alabama career was more complementary than star-level after that electric 2007 breakthrough. If your team wanted a compact, versatile, sudden-change playmaker with legit home-run ability, Grant fit the mold.
