I expected no different from you. I said,YOU WON THE GAME. YOU EARNED THE WIN. I have said that over and over. You are exaggerating over one single play.
I was asked about the play and I said what I thought. I did NOT say Auburn was lucky to win. Now the UGA game,that was pure luck,period. But not the Alabama game,I never said otherwise.
I await the apology you owe me.

How so? Wasn't AJ more highly rated coming out the same program in high school? I'm just trying to grasp why he is such an upgrade over a Heisman runner-up.
Nevermind the fact that you're trying to compare where they were as 18yo's as if improvements never happen throughout a career, but when Jacob was QB they switched to a Wing T offense. It wasn't until later in the season that Bama saw his potential but he had already given his pledge to FSU and was going to honor it.
He has been turned into an elite QB. Everyone can fight this all they want, and I understand that you're going off of some spring film and limited time with the 2s and 3s during games, but I've already explained how I've had significant exposure to Coker in practice and workouts during my time at FSU. He's the real deal, and I can't wait to see him tear it up with all the weapons he has at his disposal at Bama.

No, actually your Bears were shut out twice in 1998. 17-0 by Auburn, and 34-0 by the Piggies. That would be 15 years not 20. You must be using Rebel math.

The difference is that GMac didn't play behind a Mario Cristobal coached OL. Wes Neighbors is the co host of The Drive on 97.7 out of Huntsville and he is not happy with Cristobal.
Totally agree with all this. Great recruiter in the Miami area, but not impressed at all with our o-line since he got here. Obviously, we were going to have some drop off losing Fluker, Warmack, and Barrett Jones, but we were nothing more than an average SEC o-line last year.

he Bama logic that Coker is great because their other QBs suck so bad or that being so big and being able to throw the ball so far equals being a great QB are hilarious.
I don't think anyone in this thread has described him as great. We have pointed out that he seems to have a lot of potential based on reports from Jimbo, his size, arm strength, etc, but for the most part we all recognize that none of that will mean shite if he struggles with accuracy and decision making.
Our ability to win a title this year will not be dependent on the QB situation. It will hinge on whether our oline can return to former dominance.

I love how all rival fans just assume that since we are bringing in a transfer that all other QB's on our roster are horrible. David Cornwell and Cooper Bateman were both highly ranked and highly recruited QB's who any team in the SEC would have taken if they could. They are obviously young and inexperienced, but the last two times we started an inexperienced QB we won a national title with a simple offense relying on the ground game. We can win a national title with Coker, Cornwell or Bateman.

There is a difference between being highly ranked and producing on the college level. Cody Burns and Frazier were top 5 QBs out of HS. I heard one of the Bama Beat Writers on the radio this week talking about the emphasis on recruiting a QB, because the staff was not confident in either Cornwell or Bateman in the future.

There sure are a lot of auburn and LSU fans in this thread....
So you've resorted to citing information from a beat writer as if it's credible information? This whole thread is full of fricking lulz. Just remember GMAC went undefeated and won a NC at BAMA... Coker only needs to be serviceable to win 10 games and if he can play above average we can make a run at the NC.

GMAT was on campus longer than 100 days when he first played too.
Posted on 6/28/14 at 9:58 am to parkjas2001
True but Coker has been on a college campus 4 years and studied a very similar offense to BAMA's. Look... my point is that Im not sold on the guy either but he doesnt have to be the next coming of Peyton Manning for us to win a NC.
Posted on 6/28/14 at 10:00 am to parkjas2001
If Marshall can do it,then so conceivably can Coker.
You don't have all those recruiting classes and not have players. There are a LOT of weapons available and should Coker or whoever wins the job turn out to be adequate Alabama will be a very tough out.
You can smell the fear here. Because if and I said if too, enough whining, Coker somehow lives up to the hype, you have zero chance. None at all.

I could say similar things about Auburn. You have no solid experienced Left Holding Tackle. You have no proven back to replace Tre Mason. And you have no proven WR options to take pressure off of Coates.
Now you can blah blah blah about this player and that and what they are going to do, but none of them have actually done much in a game, if ANYTHING, just like Coker.

Every single position on our roster is stacked except QB. If Coker can perform within the top 5 QBs in the SEC we have a great shot to win the NC.
Btw, David Cornwell is the future at Bama. The only reason why he will not play this year is because he is a true freshman.

IF Coker lives up to all the hype, Alabama will not lose. There you go Chiz. IF he were to put up Mc Carron-like numbers or exceed them, none of you would have a chance.

All totally incorrect. You were actually making some sense earlier in this thread, what happened?
