They played him in 5 games, the fifth one he did nothing but hand the ball off a few times and throw 1 or 2 passes. That is the point. They used his ability to redshirt last year over a few hand offs

Now I’m going to give you the answer you don’t want to hear. Taulia will never be a starting QB at Alabama


Why do you think that’s what I don’t want to hear?

If that is the case then so be it. He didn’t look very good to me in the little action I saw him play anyway, which is why it didn’t make sense to me.

that's exactly the point, and I noted that after the game. I was railed on pretty good, but emotions were pretty high at the time so I just dropped it.

You never know what will happen or how things will work out. I mean, it's possible Taulia (isn't Lia a girl's name?) plays because of unforseen injuries or transfers, then he plays lights out and becomes the starting qb and never relinquished that position. To lose a year for a few handoffs is just stupid.
