re: Are Alabama and Georgia rolling with their current QBs next year or are they portalling?

If Vandegriff decides to transfer we will have two QB’s on scholarship. I can’t imagine us going into the season like that. Maybe we have a preferred walk on that is good enough? I don’t know. I would be surprised. (Or maybe I am forgetting something? Always possible)

First off, I don't see Vandagriff transferring in the summer.
No one is more animated and excited on the sidelines than Brock. He is an Athens kid. I see him competing until season's end if Gunner wins the job (2024 at the earliest).

Edit to add: if a QB transfers out after spring practice, the chances he starts at a new school in P5 3 months later are slim to none.


Secondly, juco transfers are different than portal transfers. Juco transfers never had to sit a year after transferring in.
If we get a portal kid in, the juco transfer would be comparable to the Dii or G5 kid who is just happy to be here (nonscholarship... most likely wanting connections for a coaching career).

Lastly, we have 6 roster QBs right now. Lose Stetson, and we probably offset him with a preferred walk on.
