Also was an All-State basketball player at St Paul's and by all accounts faster more elusive etc than Winston but not a run first guy, but he's got wheels and a live arm that's for sure. Again like I said should've definitely been a take

Ok,enough is enough. If he was faster, more elusive and had a better arm than Winston, he would have won the job and the Heisman himself. I have no doubt the kid has skills but he is an unknown until he steps on the field. All we really know for certain is that he is not as good as Winston. Everything else is speculation.

That's not what his quarterback coach said.

Just pointing that out. We don't know if he is as calm under center as jameis in a live game...but his coach basically came out and said he has more talent and wasn't given the job because the team wanted Jameis to have the job, not because he wasn't as good of a quarterback

A sane one? You're presence is appreciated.

Read the damn article, was said JW was chosen because the team backed him more and Winston not being picked would've divided the team.

Look I realize we are talking about the guy who won the Heisman and dominated in the ACC but you saw as well as I did against AU's D (not stellar by any stretch) that Winston was a tad bit mediocre even though FSU won the game

Coker has yet to step foot on campus at Bama I realize that but this article proves from all accounts that he has the same potential

Did you not read the full article ?

The coach was implying that the best QB does't always win the job if it's a tight race, but the QB who is least likely to DIVIDE the team LOSES the job.......


Hello !!!! seemed to me like he was saying J.W. won because if he had lost he would have divided the team.
