Kenneth Darby is 1,077 yards away from breaking Shaun Alexander's all-time rushing record at Alabama. Alexander, the reigning NFL MVP, amassed 3,565 yards in his time at The Capstone.
Darby needs a 90 yard per game average to break the record.
KD is currently #7 on Alabama's all-time list:
- Shaun Alexander - 3,565 yards (1996-99)
- Bobby Humphrey - 3,420 yards (1985-88)
- Johnny Musso - 2,741 yards (1969-71)
- Dennis Riddle - 2,645 yards (1994-97)
- Bobby Marlow - 2,560 yards (1950-52)
- Johnny Davis - 2,519 yards (1974-77)
- Kenneth Darby - 2,489 yards (2003-present)
