Sort of like how other fans said McCarron was wasn't that good the whole time he was at Bama, yet now they're going to miss the hell out of his mediocre arse lol

Coker is an upgrade. Deal with it.

His spring game looked horrible if that is all you saw at the beginning of the video. The actual game footage later in the video looked better. Like I said, I think we are dealing with an extremely gifted QB physically, but I'm not sure if he has the ability to be the game manager Saban wants. Hell, we may not have anyone on the roster who can be a game manager. If that is the case, Saban might let Kiffin open it up and play a more high risk/high reward style of offense.


I don't get the "gifted physically" comments about this kid. He has a decent arm and can run a little. He doesn't remotely resemble Drew Brees or Michael Vick in either phase. Some of his throws in that video were Jordan Jefferson bad. The good news is Bama is loaded at RB and has some WRs that could bail him out some. The biggest problem Bama may have is he went from getting elite QB coaching to whatever the opposite of that is.

Cooper was like the 5th or 6th best WR in the SEC-west last season. He's good though.



And nearly all of those guys are in the NFL now. Most mock drafts have Cooper as the first receiver taken in the 2015 draft.

Coker is an upgrade over Aj?

that's like saying a more talented Harris is an upgrade over Mett.. pure stupid until it's proven on the field against schools you don't have to pay to play

White: 534 yards, 6 games under 20 yards. Big game against OU.

Jones: 349 yards, 8 games under 30 yards

Howard: 269 yards

Sounds like more hype to me.

Yea because I totally compared him to an elite NFL QB. Thanks for letting me know that Drew Brees is better than Coker.

Not just Cooper, the whole freaking WR group this year might be the deepest ever at any program.

David Cornwell is currently the best QB on Bama's roster.

Well, when I hear words like "elite" and "most physically gifted QB ever at Bama" I expect that he better look like Drew Vick in a practice game.

Lane Kiffin is going to make Alabama scary good.

Yep. There's the rub. If Coker is "raw" today, he'll be still alive & grazing the grass field by the time fall rolls around.

Yes, Coker will go in raw dog on the SEC you're correct.

Marinate on this for a second.....

Greg McElroy went undefeated and won a NC at BAMA...

I was unimpressed with Coker's highlights too but he just needs to be serviceable to win us 10 or more games.

What idiot said this? bullshite.

I hope Coker is better than his highlights.

I'm very worried. I don't really believe the hype.

I'm not worried because I don't think Saban expects the kid to come in and carry the team. I believe Bama will play it close to the vest with the running game and playaction passes until Coker gets comfortable assuming that he wins the starting job. If Coker doesn't develop into a real threat, Bama can just stick with the run and play tough defense. They've won a lot of games that way.

We actually win a lot of games when we stick to running the damn ball. See 2012 SECCG vs UGA. 1st half and 2nd half were night and day.

I hope you're right. It's just disappointing
with #1 class after #1 class, we have no known
QB.

If Saban wins it all this year, how could you not call him the greatest?

We shall see.
