This is not a bad group.
There should have been a plan for two quarterbacks to play if Milroe struggled. Keeping Milroe out there with no change up did not put this team in a position to win.

The calls schemed guys open. Chances were there.

The defense is far ahead of where they were under Golding. They just eventually got worn down and played sloppy in the 4th.

Defensive line is still a weakness. No pressure without bringing two extra. Recipe for giving up big plays.

Yes, it absolutely is a bad group, by Alabama standards. Two quarterbacks? None of them are SEC championship material. The OL is not good at all by Alabama standards. Seriously...do you think our center deserves to be mentioned in the same sentence as Jones, Kelly, Bozeman, Caldwell, or hell, even Vlachos? What OL do you see as being a first round draft choice?

RB...I've already mentioned the talent we've had in the past...even Glen Coffee. None of these guys are remotely that good.

At WR we've been spoiled with multiple first round draft picks over the last several years. You can name at least 8 that would keep any of this year's crew from ever seeing the field.

The coaching certainly can improve, but the talent on this team is woefully less than what we've been accustomed to over the last 15 years, and even with great coaching, their ceiling is going to be at a level below the standard we are used to.

They may be great young men. They are not great football players.
