The key is bama's Spring Training. If Coker see's that he will have to compete for the starting job because someone emerged from the pack, I think he will go somewhere else. He does not want to be a backup again.

As far as the hype is concerned, I do not think FSU is too worried about where he transfers. You do not see them placing a restriction on his transfer when they let him out of his scholly.

He would not be at Bama for spring practice.

Oh, you actually didn't want an answer. You just wanted arguing points for your own opinion. My mistake.

This may have already been posted here, but here is a video of all of his passes last year including the spring game.

Saw where Saban was in Cali recruiting top JUCO Qb - Saban is intent on signing as many Qb's as possible and whoever loses job will transfer but at least he keeps them from competitors. If I'm Sims I would head to FCS because the writing is on the wall and Saban is not using any wildcat package.

He won't be around for Spring. He will start. No question, Saban wouldn't be recruiting him to be a backup with already 4 QB's on the 85.

They can't place restrictions on where he transfers.

Facts, again, with you.

I'm being facetious. I knew what you wanted the whole time. Sorry my failure to play along has frustrated your efforts.

I can think of several more accurate adjectives, but nice try.

Dumbass can you read ? I said he would not go there is someone else emerged af ST. You can place restrictions on transfers, remember your former BB Player that wanted to go to UAB, ended up at NC.

FSU has no good backup at QB; so if Winston gets hurt or can't go towards the end of the season, Coker leads Bama to a NCG win over FSU

Does Coker have to get a giant chest tattoo now?

This whole Bama-Coker thing just reeks of desperation.

He looks decent in that video when he isn't running for his life.

Well, the lack of an answer is actually probably the most accurate answer.

He actually looks like a perfect QB for Bama. Just based on that video though, I don't get where all the hype is coming from though. There's been some pretty crazy comments made about this kid.

You can tell people weren't lying about his athleticism. He has a tremendous arm, but will need to take some off of his intermediate throws.
