I mentioned in another thread that I am high on this guy’s prospects for the future at QB, but that it seems like every time I mention his name on this forum it gets downvoted.

What are the general feelings about him? Is there a downside or skeletons in his closet that I’m not aware of to where people don’t care for him?

I will need to defer to Carlton. He knows.

Believe he just turned 18. Is he the best option?

Ignore downvotes, unless there are replies to go with them. If someone is unwilling to explain what they think is the issue with what seems to be an honest question/perspective, it likely means they are just dipshits. Hope this helps.

He's 3rd string. He might start at Bama, but I seriously doubt it's next year.

If Mack starts Simpson and Lonergan are gone.

Looks like 3 dipshits can't take being called out by my post. How about that.

We never get the backup QB minutes with the 1st unit. It's always the 2nd bunch and the QB is running for his life.

Coach Bryant was sending in the backup QB in the 2nd Qtr not matter they score. Had to get the backup ready due to the QB's running the ball so often in the wishbone.

Risk/Reward

He’s 4th string. Behind Milroe, Simpson, and Lonergan

Fraudchonie played the #2 QB in the 3rd series just about every game.

Croyle hit Fletcher for an 80 yd TD at Ark.

I’m sure he won’t be ready in 2025.

Is there some underlying reason why he should not be a possibility in 2026? That’s mainly what I am asking.

I was fantasizing about a Milroeless spring.

No, I think he has a shot in 2026. It's not like any of us have really seen the backups get to run the offense. So, who knows, really?

I bet Lonergan is gone anyway. Simpson starts next year, then Mack or maybe the dude that is coming in this year (forget his name).

Highest upside of any quarterback currently on the roster.
