re: What will Milroe have to do to get yanked from UT Game

I wonder how much keeping Milroe in the fold going forward has to do with it? If he gets passed up by Ty during this year then we all know Jalen probably transfers before next season, then your backup is likely a True Freshman. Even if Jalen doesn’t end up as our starting QB ever again after this week I know Saban would like to use his athleticism somewhere else on the field.

I also think that Saban doesn’t believe Ty gives us enough of an upgrade over Jalen to make a move worth it currently, because we could have lost that game and control over our own destiny in the division. So the calculus is basically “the short term gain we might get from Ty isn’t worth the long term issues it could cause by jumping the gun”.

A simple explanation would be if Ty were just not doing well in practice, but I haven’t found that to be the case from anything I’ve read or heard.

I do think if this is secretly a longer term issue with Bryce we see both QBs if Jalen can’t move the ball and/or keeps turning the ball over in future games
