Star Jackson
I remember when he got to Alabama. He was a highly recruited 4-star QB out of Florida. Many Alabama fans thought he was the next JaMarcus Russell and would easily supplant John Parker Wilson as the starting QB in his true freshman year.
What damn fools we were.

He actually wasn't all that highly recruited. Rivals gave him 4 stars but not a lot of big program were after him. Bama did not even offer Star Jackson until late after we missed on better guys.

I never heard anyone say that. Star was skinny, nothing like Jamarcus.

I know of no Alabama fan anywhere that said this. Ever.
