You beat me to it. Better you than me because I can’t get anything to post on this site but what I type. I can’t even give people a thumbs up. It does something weird when I try.
Anyway, let’s ROLL!

Let’s ride. Not sure how this year goes, think anything from 8-4 to 11-1 is possible. But this is definitely the best move for the future. Good shite

I’m pumped! I promise you there will be occasional moments when he’ll look like a rookie and everyone will come unglued here but the upside of this is infinite.

Thank god

Inevitable...Let's Roll!!!

Why did I actually enjoy Sabans cat and mouse games more when he would never name a starter weeks in advance?

Let’s gooo
Hope Austin Mack gets a great transfer spot after the year.

I hope we can talk Mack into a scenario where we try hard to not use his eligibility up but he is the emergency option.

This is a good sign.
If Mack and Russell were truly neck and neck in this competition, then odds were that neither of them were much better than average.
I'm hoping that Russell has proven himself to be head and shoulders above Mack and someone who has it in him to be one of the best QB's in the conference.
Edit: If you disagree, I'd love to hear why. I think this is a very mild and somewhat obvious take on the situation.

Excited to see KR get his shot. With Mack's leadership and height I think he will a formidable back up and support for Keelon. Let's gooooo!

Im glad he had to earn job. If im Mack, I keep working because the way football goes, you always gotta be ready

Tua/Jalen part II?
I would like to think we can win with either.

You can't save eligibility anymore. You get 5 to play 5. Redshirts are no longer a thing.

Folks need to still have the proper expectations. I think the leeway for "young player mistakes" is much larger for KR that it would have been with Mack. Regardless of your talent level, there is no shortcut to maturity(in the football sense)

Let's have a little more respect for Carlton in his time of loss.

Tbh, more than once Saban's qb half-assery ended up with us being stuck with the worse option
