OK, and?

He was also being recruited by Auburn when he was transferring

Clint Trickett? Yea, I'm aware, which is why I was strongly against it. I had a few Auburn fans get rustled when I said it. It wasn't a situation like Russell Wilson transferring, to me anyways.

The is so much fear in this thread it's palpable

I've pointed out facts.

1) 4th best quarterback on roster in 2012
2) One good offer out of high school
3) Ran the Wing-T in high school
4) Looked mediocre (statistically), at best, during his time at Florida State
5) Had season ending knee injury
6) Will not get to Alabama until the summer

I just feel like Alabama fans should temper their expectations on him. He's pretty much an unknown right now. And guys like Cooper Bateman, Alec Morris, etc won't back off and let him win the job. David Cornwell might even have a say in the quarterback competition this year, even though it's unlikely (no matter how good you are, rarely does a true freshman quarterback start). We've obviously heard about his arm strength and that he is a big kid, but other than that...? We don't know about accuracy, work ethic, leadership abilities, etc...yet.

Is he still rehabbing? And what exact time is he expected to enroll at Alabama?
