True it just shocks me how Coker is supposed to be so much better than who is on your campus. I try my best to keep up with sec recruiting and I thought Bama was getting the qb prospects they wanted. Is the hype around Coker because he is better than what you have on campus? or do you think he is as good or better than Aj?

In my non biased opinion, the hype came out cause some FSU assistant (whoever it was, don't care) came out and said Coker had a better arm than Winston and bama nation lost its collective mind. It's also in part because we've known for a while now that Sims is average, at best. Appears to practice well but sucks in game situations.

However, I think if we can develop that O line better I could start as Bama's QB and win 10 damn games. I can throw ducks and incomplete passes like a fricking boss but all I gotta do is get the handoffs right and we should be ok.

So it's a bit of both worlds. Bama nation is putting all its hopes on a kid that's an unknown and everyone else is saying the kid sucks. Time will tell...

Bama was/is getting the QB recruits they want. Doesn't mean they all pan out. Phillip Sims was the number one QB coming out of high school. All reports are that Coker is very very good. Will that translate when he is at Bama? I have no idea. He will be hard pressed to out do what AJ accomplished.
