If you ever heard of him Stephen Smith is gaga for Hurts. Said he will be the starter.

The Jeffrey Lee of Alabama.

So what's to discuss? Bateman is still squatting to pee in the pocket, BB8 has seemingly hit his ceiling (thinking about his surfer?) and Hurts moved the offense down the field against our defense...let that sink in. He threw a pick in the end zone as time expired during his two minute drill. That's not a bad pick, that's trying to make something happen and it's understandable. We're not winning shite with the other two, throw the freshman out there and let him learn.

Very interesting info about the QB situation. Hard to believe that we have a strong chance of a TF starting at Bama.


Boz, tell me how the DL looked. Our aggressiveness on D is predicated on how much pressure the D can put on the QB up front.


Also, how much would Gussie pay for Jalen right now?

How much of the action with the 1s would you say Hurts is getting? Or how much of his reps are against the 1s?

Just curious since we don't get to hear very much about which QB is getting more 1s v 1s action

So this is kind of hard to say , people will tell you they all got equal looks. I tend to believe that but they switched the def so much, it was like every other play. Very confusing at times. They all played with the 1's some. IMO and that of a few others hurts moved the 1's with ease. But again I think if Bateman struggles again next Saturday we will have a real discussion about someone else.

CrimsonBoz,

If you had to grade the 3 QBs on their play with a 0-100 scale like our old grade school report cards, what grade would you give each QB on their performance Saturday?

Saban mentioned that Frazier has improved and has worked at nose and at 5 technique. We need him to be a contributor on the DL. We still need one more guy to step in and play some on the DL. Dakota Ball has been mentioned by the staff as a guy who could contribute. He could be like a nick gentry type player.

I see what you want to do but, I can't answer that question considering the rules of scrimmages. We can talk offline but it won't be posted on this forum.

I think we have plenty of talent in the front seven honestly. Having Evans kind of plugs if someone gets hurt at the ILB and we have a ton of young guys who IMO can play early, Davis being one. Frazier is getting there, way better than he was. I think he was just a blob before.
