Alabama quarterback commit Tua Tagovailoa spoke with SEC Country after the first day of the U.S. Army All-American Bowl practices, and he provided an update that will surely make the Crimson Tide faithful happy.

“I asked (Ruggs) what he was down to and he said he was down to two options, Alabama and Florida State,” Tagovailoa said. “I just wished him the best of luck with his decision.”

5. Shawn Robinson, QB, Texas

At his best, Robinson is a dual-threat maven — as he showed in guiding DeSoto to a 16-0 record and a state title at the highest level of Texas high school football this year. But in this setting, where it's really all about the arm, Robinson was inconsistent. He made some nice throws, but lost his touch on too many. Many fluttered, albeit accurately, into the hands of their targeted receivers. Robinson will look to improve Tuesday in a more competitive practice (it'll be West vs. East) and in Saturday's game. 
The TCU commit is the No. 5 dual-threat QB in the 247Sports Composite. 

4. Jake Fromm, QB, Georgia

The Georgia commit got his feet under him after a slow start. He even said he felt better after a lunch headed into the afternoon session, where he showed why he's here. He was ripping balls outside the hashes. Fromm quickly picked up the East's offensive plays and by the end of the day was showing the rest of the quarterbacks the ropes. In a quick-bake setting like this — the game is Saturday and there are only two practices total — that kind of stuff makes an impression. We also liked that Fromm looked downfield more than anyone in Monday's practice.  
Fromm is the No. 3 pro-style QB per the 247Sports Composite. 

3. Hunter Johnson, QB, Indiana

The most natural thrower of the football is Clemson's five-star quarterback commit. He spins it consistently, has the most arm talent and has a knack for hitting receivers in stride. Johnson's best throw of the day was a thread-the-needle dime to Henry Tuggs that had his peers shaking their heads in awe. 

2. Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Hawaii

The Alabama Crimson Tide pledge was at his surgical best during the team period. As the sun got hotter, the Hawaiian stayed calm and cool in the pocket, was accurate throughout and had the play of the day at East practice, going through his progressions and hitting Donovan Peoples-Jones for the longest pass of the day, a drop-in-the-bucket dime down the left sideline. His poise when things get messy in the pocket reminds us of current Tide QB Jalen Hurts.  
Tagovailoa is the No. 1 dual-threat QB in the 247Sports Composite. 

1. Tate Martell, QB, Nevada

Sharp throughout, the Ohio State commit was crisp with his throws and spun it well all morning. We were impressed by his footwork — Martell's mechanics in the lower body are organized and efficient. The No. 2 dual-threat QB in the 247Sports Composite was the same consistent guy in every drill and setting.
