re: Why can't Alabama prepare QB's for the NFL?

I think our system now is not really set up to produce NFL QBs. We tend to develop QBs that can work well within our system

What? We run a PRO Style Offense. It is exactly set up for producing NFL QBs. The problem is that there arent as many Pro style Pro Prospects in our area now that the spread offemse is the mainstay in HS football. That's why Bama has been recruiting out west more lately.
It isn't Bamas system that is not developing pro QBs, it's the fact Bama hasn't been able to find the right guy yet. Partially because of past reputation of being a run dominant offense turned away the more elite passing QBs which is what NFL teams want. But Bamas system is perfect for developing NFL QBs.
