re: BOLs Jimmy Stein on not playing Ty Simpson

This is why they need conspiracies to explain their rationale.

They base their entire thought process and emotion and how they feel and ignore objective facts and reality.

Then they get angry with anyone who challenges their feelings with facts. They can't even address what happens because it's all how they feel.

They sound like women honestly and I bet they clown women for this same behavior

Name is Melanie Carmichael ????

Honestly if that is the scenario then Ty is fraudulent like Milroe.

Ty should be unquestioned starter like Milroe was if this is truly how KDB processed things. If it's more fan fiction then Ty will transfer out when he is beaten for the job by spring

I mean I get it. Deboer was the outsider, not Milroe. Milroe rallied the troops, and sure, played the political game perfectly. Plus the dude had just been the starter on a SEC championship team.

I think CKD wanted to create an atmosphere where loyalty and dedication to the program was rewarded. Im fine with Milroe earning the starting job, but it shouldnt have been guaranteed starter all season

Jimmy Stein cohosts the “Locked on Bama” podcast with Luke Robinson. Pretty good podcast honestly. I listen most days.

How does being the victim of a questionable coaching decision make him a fraud? Playing time is not his call. He can do his best during practice, show up early, stay late, do extra weightlifting, etc., but that's about it. Ultimately it's the coach's decision. If that decision was made because of roster integrity concerns and wanting to keep a team leader at the QB position in a volatile period for the program I can at least understand it even if I think ripping that bandaid off may have been the better course. If it was made because DeBoer believes in seniority/experience based depth charts even more than Saban did, that's a problem. Especially in an era like this where you have to assume you have all of these guys for a year at most.

100% agree, and if DeBoer would have simply paid the debt by giving Milroe the first shot at the job, but benched him when it was clear he was killing us then the fanbase could go into next year still optimistic about DeBoer.

I have more questions about DeBoer now than I did before the season started.

Of course It doesn't. YStar is the guy that cant swim, but wanders out over his head during riptide warnings at the beach.

There's more to having a good arm than having a strong arm. Milroe absolutely does not have a good arm. His mechanics are inconsistent, he is horribly inaccurate on anything under like 30 yards, he can't throw off platform, and his release isn't all that quick. All of those things are strengths for Russell.

People think a strong arm means it's good.

Milroe has shitty footwork, bad mechanics and relies on arm strength to make up for lack of technique.

He also has bad feet. It's why he is fast in a straight line but horrible laterally.

I just think coaches kept falling in love with the idea of fixing him because his possible high ceiling. The issue is he is mentally fragile and would never reach those expectations talk much sustain them.
