quote:

"I've never had anybody with his size who throws it as well as he does," said FSU QB coach Randy Sanders who's been around big-time programs since his days as a Tennessee player in the mid-80s with the Vols star-crossed quarterback Tony Robinson. "Jake has a really quick release with tremendous arm strength. Rarely does it not spiral or not go where he wants it to go."

Asked if Coker's arm is even better than Winston, the resident Heisman winner, Sanders paused for a few breaths before saying, "Coker's arm is kind of at a different level. Jameis has a very special arm, and this isn't any knock against Jameis, but Jake's probably the best I've seen in 25 years at throwing it."

Sims DOES suck. But he was never going to be the starter anyway.

Sims is a hard worker, but probably along the lines of Lsu's JJ. Difference being, Bama is working on upgrading, instead of giving the job to someone just because.

Like turning to a JuCo QB kicked out of his previous school? Or a RB charged with assault and battery?

Scared. You think you are the only ones who can win a national title with a first year transfer qb? Oh...Oh wait...

Sims sucks but he never kicked a marine and Coker isn't on the Sex Offender Shuffle.

This isn't exactly breaking news. I haven't heard one Bama fan talk about being excited to have Sims start next year.

Because its not. Or as you said-he would have beat out Jameis. Also hes wildly inaccurate. Outside of a game with 2 passes he never completed more than 50% of his throws in scrub mop up time.

There was something about them fearing a divide among the team if Jameis wasn't named the starter

quote:

Lamarcus Joyner, FSU's star DB, compares the Winston-Coker dynamic to what Florida had with Tim Tebow and Cam Newton.

"You have two NFL guys sitting on one roster," Joyner said. "Everyone knows about Jameis. He's the Tim Tebow right now. He's in that light, but no one knows about Jacob Coker. Great kid. Physical. I'll never forget the day he threw an interception to me, and that kid came and hit me harder than I've ever been hit in my life. It felt like a linebacker."
