re: Coker to Bama per ESPN

Just a season ago you guys were calling him "AJ McCannon" ... ? Maybe it's because he was always lights out against LSU but if you can throw the back-shoulders down the sideline what other throws are difficult to make?

I never called him that, but I'll still play along.

AJ was a very, very good QB for us. Perhaps the greatest of all time when it's all said and done.

However, he missed on several deep throws this past season. It could have been due to poor reads or poor routes, but he missed nonetheless.

Coker has an elite arm. That is undisputable. He fricking slings it. His problem is experience. But we've done well with guys with limited experience lately.

Another aspect he has on AJ is mobility. Coker ran the ball 70% of the time in high school and has shown great escapibility.
