Seemed like a good kid from a good family in interviews. He was a first-year starter, and I thought he handled himself pretty well this season. I didn't see the greatest weapons or offensive design, and he was constantly dealing with bad snaps.

Agree… we are beyond spoiled.

He’s done nothing to deserve hate. Just classic spoiled Gumps lashing out after a loss.

He had a good season and led a slightly-undermanned Alabama offense to 12 wins, three of which were over top 15 teams. That's a good season for a first-year starter in my book

Coming out with that “LANK” merch and acting like a perennial victim is a microcosm of the narcissism destroying college football today.

That’s like playing the heel in wrestling and wondering why people don’t like you.

He plays hard and he fought hard all season. That was a team loss yesterday. No, he didn’t play particularly well, but there were other problems, too. Alabama didn’t play well up front on either side of the ball, the linebackers and secondary got confused in coverage multiple times, etc. Michigan also made the plays in the most crucial moments, and they deserve all of the credit in the world for that.

That’s just the way it goes sometimes. I’m sure Alabama will do everything they can to learn from it and get better.

He kind of asked for it at the end of the season. He got a little too big for his britches. It started with saying he deserved the Heisman after beating Auburn, then his LANK merchandise, and then calling out his former OC. People enjoy seeing others fail when they get cocky.

Plenty of teams would be happy to have him at quarterback.

It isn't hate to point out his deficiencies. He can't throw a slant, curl, stick, swing pass. He also can't anticipate what the defense is going to do. All things you like your qb to be able to do.

I don’t hate Jalen, make a thread about hating Seth McLaughlin and I’m all for it

"Give me the Heisman". He's a good athlete and a below average qb. If Bama had an oline worth a damn preseason, I don't see how Simpson isn't the starter.

I don’t hate him, he’s just a bad QB. But I can’t hate anyone who loses 2 games for Bama, even if he’s infected with Tide AIDS

What was the deal there? Was he that scared of the Michigan DL??

Saban's the kind of guy that practices til he gets it right, then practices until he cant get it wrong.
I just don't understand how a D-1 starting center at Alabama of all places could possibly mess up a snap yet alone yesterday's performance

Every fan base including ours has some serious douche bags.

Neither do I. Don't hate on the players. Saban/OC called the plays...Milroe carries them out to the best of his ability. He had done pretty well up to this game...

Milroe isn't a good enough QB to be at Bama....He made it worse with all that LANK victim-hood trash. Then he tried to make it racial all because he was too delusional to admit his IQ is too low for the position. Hope he never plays another down at Bama.

I do. He didn't get it done. And in Alabama, that won't work.

Agree, the hate I see is simply because he isn't Tom Brady with his accuracy, but who is?

I was upset when he flipped from us to Bama...but then again I think he probably thrives in a Tom Herman RPO offense and may have bought that fraud an extension and we still have him as coach today. The more I think about it, thanks Milroe and the Gumps!
