Who knows? I have concerns with the zero reps that Brandon Mitchell got this year and the lack of reps in blowout games for Brandon Allen.


So who do y'all think will start our first game next season.

Brandon Mitchell
Brandon Allen
Taylor Reed
Austin Allen
Tyler Cogswell

Brandon Mitchell, I hope. Would be interesting to see what the new coach could do with his athleticism.

Depends on the coach.



Spread option offense.

Brandon Mitchell/ True Freshman as the rest probably transfer out.

Some semblance to a pro style offense:

Brandon Allen / Brandon Mitchell

I'll admit I didn't like Brandon Mitchell at first but he has grown on me. He truly is a hell of an athlete and a good guy for sticking with the UofA for so long. I'd like to see him start.

IMO, Brandon Mitchell may be gone after this season.

FCS would be his only option, I guess we could feed Conque and UCA another.

Yep. Maybe I'm making too much of his situation but he has terrible decision making skills.

Petrino said this kid was ahead of Wilson numerous times, no reason he shouldn't be our guy unless it's a spread offense and MUST have a fast QB.

Paul Petrino?

He's a Rah-Tard, I will await the next coach's opinion and evaluation, but I do agree he is a talented prospect.

Speaking of Brandon, Austin played very well last night against NLR. Especially on the game winning drive. Very poised and hardly made any mistakes

Plus Altee didn't impress me much. He's not powerful enough imo

But then again Saban knows more than me

Saban is to the point he can stockpile talent that can wash out to FCS before they would normally mature and be productive juniors/seniors at other SEC schools...

i think it's mitchell.

bsically i don't take anything that this staff this year did into consideration. going back to the petrino days mitchell was the heir apparent. until i see otherwise in pratice that's who i think it will be.

I heard a rumor that Reed left the team from my roommate from el dorado but i guess it wasn't true...I think mitchell should at least get a shot. then the year after Brandon allen will be a RS junior and probably ready

I'd really like to see Mitchell get his chance.

No, Bobby praised Brandon Allen many times, thought he was going to be his best QB out of all of them.

It may just be me but I see more potential for mitchell at WR. That's not a knock on him but he has the measurables to be a great receiver. I think a little more polish and he'd be a great one.

i believe that as well.

however going to be does not mean, there as a RS sophomore. that's the part of the equation i don't hink most fans are comprehending.

he could have more upside than mitchell and at the same time.. not yet be ready to take over the reins utnil he's a RS junior. in other words I think most are underestimating mitchell's talent as a QB simply beucase he sat behind mallett and wilson.

if i had to make a bet i would bet that Mitchell is more comfortable out there and can probably read defenses better than allen can, but allen is more polished and is more accurate.
