he was asked to do too much as a PG with virtually 0 scoring threats around him

This was true for everyone if Retin wasn't on the floor last year.

Look, I think Coleman was fine, but to me Collins is an upgrade at the position especially because we're talking about our backup PG.

I guess what I'm getting at is that as Bama fans, we can't hold these expectations that we should win like we do in football, especially right now. It takes time to build a great program and we will have to build with 3 and 4 year players imo. Development is key.

I don't get why you want to compare the two at all. You're the only one bringing up the football team.

Development is key, and I think a good comparison needs to be a program like Michigan State. They recruit blue chip talent, but groom them over a number of years to build a sustainable level of success.
