This is freaking awesome but holy hell, I'm going to be a nervous wreck anytime he steps on the field and especially when he rolls out of the pocket to the left


Me too. I'm going to be a wreck.

If Mac stays... I think he has proven he is good enough to win games. Just need our defense to get better

Let's say Tua stays, but spends a good portion of the season rehabbing and just being moral support and a leader for the team. Mac stays, continues to improve and has a pretty good if not phenomenal season. What are the chances that both could be taken in 2021?

I doubt Mac stays if Tua comes back, gets healthy, and wins the job. He's good enough to start at multiple SEC and P5 schools.

Mac Jones definitely has an NFL future. I think he's put enough on tape this year to find a good landing spot as a grad transfer. He's very talented.

I may be way off base but I think at this point Mac is clearly going to get drafted. Granted, it might be in the 6th or 7th round, but I think he's pretty clearly proven he is a late round draft pick guy.

if Tua stays, he is going to have to prove to be healthy and beat out Mac...there is no guarantee on Tua's health "right now". Mac=Jalen 2018

If Mac transfers I just hope he doesn't end up in the SEC.

My fear won't necessarily be "oh no we're screwed if Tua gets hurt" it will be more of "oh no not again Tua".

Not to mention I'd be shocked if Mac stays if Tua stays.

It really depends on Tua's rehab prognosis more than anything, I would think. There's a not insignificant chance that Tua might not be able to play the first half or even three quarters of the season.

I would support him at Kentucky, he was committed to them at one point. Of course I'd prefer Mac remain here. Even if Tua gets healthy and wins the job back, we have to be honest that an injury is possible with Tua, whether it's the hip or something else.

I think Young is going to be elite, but I prefer the sure thing of Mac at the moment

Mac won’t make that decision until he has his degree in hand.

Didn't he graduate a few weeks ago?

No indication Mac will leave

He is a confident young man to say the least

That picture gives me flashbacks of being hungover as hell, waiting in that damn place.

Gut says he's staying. This seems planned to me with the whole "tua on the 6th thing"

We already got Dylan and Leatherwood

X on 1/3
Ruggs/Smith on 1/4
Smith/Ruggs on 1/5
Tua on 1/6

I think the others, Najee/Wills/Lewis/Jeudy will announce at the normal presser with Saban that they are entering the draft

This was my thinking as well. Give each player a day in the news cycle and keeps Bama in the headlines.
