No you said and I quote that “Tua deferred to Jalen as the leader of the bunch” as in Jalen leads in this competition. Which is simply untrue and far from the truth.
Jalen and Saban did talk to and essentially shut up his parents but it was nothing more then telling them there is no problem and Jalen is still in competition. So maybe we’re on the same page here but if your implying in your original post that something has changed and Jalen is about to play a extended amount of time in game 1 then that’s is 100% wrong. You need to check what was going in game prep in these last 2 days and how it was run. Tua is being prepped to start. Jalen will play but he won’t be getting 40 or 30% of the reps. Tua will start and Jalen will go in occasionally for a play or 2.
I’m not trying to demean you and you need to know it’s ok to be wrong occasionally.

I was talking specifically about the meeting with the quarterbacks not the entire team.
In the other thread I talk about the reps I’ve actually seen with my own eyes and that lines up with what you and I have both said. However, both will play.
And a massive LOL on being wrong. I don’t put a ton of detail in my posts just convey the message. I’ll continue to do that. I appreciate the posts.

I agree with you. Also, the deference showed to jalen could be more from a cultural aspect than anything else.
My opinion is that Tua came to Alabama because he knew he can take the QB1 spot. The kid is respectful not submissive, big difference.

I didn't take it that way at all...
I took it to mean that Boz's source said Tua deferred to Jalen in the QB room only; with just QBs and coaches in that room, I could see him doing that in courtesy to Jalen's experience and seniority...it doesn't mean he's ceded leadership of the team or of the QB position. As for the other, I took STFU as an embellishment, not literally...if Hurts told either of his parents that, his father would've jacked him up...I just figured it meant Jalen asked/told his parents to keep their comments out of the media and they agreed...
Seems to me that what Boz meant to say and how you interpreted what he said were two different things...
