re: There is no Milroe coalition in the locker room

but it was evident that many of the offensive players didn't give a proper effort in the USF game last season when Ty was playing.

Provide the evidence.

Enough of this conspiracy bullshite. Actually provide plays that showed these guys were trying to lose if Milroe didn't start.

Like any evidence would convice you? You've fought tooth and nail against anyone and anything who question your beloved QB.

This alone should have landed him on the bench.

My question now is what would have taken for Jalen Milroe to be benched? NCAA allegations forcing him to be ineligible? An arrest coupled with a guilty plea for a felony charge?

Clearly there was literally no limit to what Milroe could do on the football field that would jeopardize losing position. Jalen could’ve thrown more pick sixes today and DeBoer would’ve trotted him right back out there because Jalen had “the look.”

This ^^^^^. Y Star simply cannot cope with the fact Radio is a HORRIBLE QB. Never seen anyone who is more unable to cope with reality and a guy who is literally wrong in everything he's ever said on here.

Per usual here.

No evidence or discussion just personal attacks from frustrated losers.

I have always wanted Ty Simpson over Milroe by the way. Check my post history over last summer and this one.

I just know our only issue isn't QB and whenever I point to the other issues you guys can't comprehend it because you need one villian and can't understand this team had significant issue in many places

I had always thought that before Coach Saban stepped down, there would be a known coach in waiting, and a much smoother transition that what actually happened a year ago.

I would like to know what the players said to CNS that basically made him retire at the spur of the moment.

Whatever transpired set up what we experienced this year. CKD is a good coach but thinking he would step in and keep the Saban train rolling without a hiccup is unfair to him.

Having said that, CKD's refusal to sit Milroe, for even a series or two, is in my mind related back to why Nick said "I'm out".

Hope whatever is is/was gets cleaned and CKD gets to implement his plan without further interference.

Having said all this, if Milroe does stay, I'm likely to opt out of fandom, because I believe Milroe and maybe some other players have control beyond what a player should have. Milroe is on the record saying he's "a business man first" or something to that effect.

RTR

With the transfer portal and recruiting signing day, there is no longer a good time for a coach to quit/retire/fired.

Don't worry about Ystar. For whatever reason, he'd blame the Oline, OC, HC, the weather patterns, and inflation before he'd place anything on Milroe. He doesn't believe politics are what kept Milroe as the starter. He really thinks he was the best QB we had...lol.

Stop! Y Star can be off-putting, but anyone with two eyes and a functioning brain can see that Alabama has more trouble than just Milroe. 1) The Oline was embarrassingly bad. 2) On the final play our receiver did not even try to come back to the ball. He was yanking out his mouth piece before it hit the ground. Michigan defenders were at least running to the ball.

Putting a second string qb behind that line would have been a horror show for them. Furthermore, not a one of us has any true insight as to whether Simpson is even close to capable. He may be just as incapable but without the year of experience. I saw him shy away from contact in one of his mop up roles - I think it was LSU. So, I have some questions about his desire.

In the end, head coaches aren’t playing Madden. There is no reset button when things go bad. There’s no 15 minutes of smack talk for losing. Those guys are held accountable by ADs and can lose their job for not just losses but for replacing a QB who took the reigning champs to the wire with a guy who is just as bad. They simply must play percentages and engage in best practices.

Imagine the heat if Deboer had started with Simpson over Milroe to begin the season. It would have been utterly unacceptable in the eyes of the media- who have a lot of sway. They can ruin a guy with enough stories about a white qb replacing a black qb who Loves the program and took them a year ago to the semis. Imagine if Simpson had been named the preseason starter and then struggled. “Coach, what were you thinking replacing an SEC championship qb with a less athletic back up?” . You don’t get to be a successful head coach by being stupid.

It is really easy to coach from the couch or for that matter to run the church from the pews, but reality is quite different when you are the one in charge, who has a complete picture, and who is held ultimately accountable.

There is a reason why several posters on here were kicked off of whatever other Bama board they were on. Those boards contain sober-minded people who don’t act like a 14 year old kid saying “ They suuuuuck” “Fire everybody” just because things don’t go well in the moment. They have resilience and act like men. I would suggest we do the same.

Milroe has been a horror show for much of the season. The fact of the matter is he is a complete miss fit for this offense and high floor but low ceiling QB who panics when things don’t run smoothly.

I saw the first quarter. It was terrible on many levels. But, what did you think was going to be gained by yanking Milroe and throwing in Simpson who had basically back up practice time during preparations and asking him to play behind a turnstile of an offensive line?
