Maybe...maybe not. But with a 12 team playoff, you almost have a mulligan game. I could see him sticking with Milroe unless Ty really shows something this spring...but also pulling the trigger after the first L...if it comes. Ty transferring after the spring would be his worst move. He'd already be behind if he transferred to another major program with not a good shot at starting immediately. Better to stick around like Hurts did for one more season even if he's not named the starter Things like injuries happen. If the opportunity doesn't come, then you transfer following the '24 season with eligibility remaining and go through spring ball wherever with a legitimate shot at competing to start the following fall.

But that's if Milroe is starting again. It absolutely should be an open competition this spring.

I have said this a million times. If Saban would not start Tua in 2017 up until the point he did, NOBODY has a chance to start in front of Milroe next season.

And Milroe had his chances to show what he could do this year. Lost 2 games and in my opinion he is at his ceiling. If we still had Golding, he probably has 4 loses.

Anyway next years schedule will require a dynamic QB capable of calling audibles, sliding pass protection calls based on what he sees, capable of taking what the defense is giving, capable of having a pocket awareness and presence. Milroe has three full seasons of major college football under his belt and still displays the shortcomings of a high school QB or a true freshman straight out of high school.

Sabans years are numbered and he needs to move past this loyalty/ deserving BS. These are professionals now and if the elder player is not getting the job done then it’s next man up time.
