Coker has yet to step foot on campus at Bama I realize that but this article proves from all accounts that he has the same potential



There is an article on TomahawkNation.

About how Jimbo struggled for days with the decision. There is a youtube video of him announcing it.....and he doesnt seem "at ease" about it.

Jameis just lit it up when he had the opportunity.


To be fair though. THis is similar how it was to AJ vs. Phil Sims. Both were great throughout practice. AJ looked better when getting the first opportunity. Sims transferred and got lost in the shuffle. Dont think that happens with a smart kid like Coker. But sometimes losing out on a job can throw you off track.

He's talked at length to A J McCarron (his predecessor and friend at St. Pauls H.S. in Mobile) and the staff at FSU are totally aware of the situation. Certainly they'd like to see him change his mind, but nobody can blame him if he does.

Your comparison to the McCarron/Sims QB battle was spot on, and I'd bet a dollar to a stale donut that CNS was made aware long before the sims transfer hit the news.

The whole "it was a tight race" talk from the Florida State coaching staff, regarding the quarterback competition between Jameis Winston and Jacob Coker, is complete garbage...

The same was said regarding the quarterback competition between Cam Newton and Barrett Trotter.
