He's said to be down to Alabama, USC, Texas A&M, Auburn, and Ole Miss. He's been trending to Alabama the last two weeks.
Decision expected at 6:15 PM Hawaiian time (11:15 PM central).

1. USC
2. Bama
3. OleMiss
Has said USC was his dream school closer to home.
But if his Dad has locked in a job on the Alabama coast that may give away his landing spot.

Most Alabama mods are expecting Alabama. His dream school comment was prior to visiting Alabama, he has since backed off that comment.

Ah interesting well solid pick up if that is the case, a Dual threat passer at Alabama that will be interesting.
I can't recall one in recent memory.

Blake Sims was literally two years ago.

I dont consider this Dual threat. Blake Sims Played well in your system. and he was a solid player but i didnt put him in the category in my head.
Tua tagolvia Laughs at those numbers. Im talking Dak, Chad, Johnny, Cam, nick Marshall, Guys who ran equally as much.

That was Alabama's system. Not Blake Sims. The guy played RB for two years for crying out loud.
Tagovailoa would be used similarly.

Rushing Receiving Scrimmage
*2014 Alabama SEC SR QB att 83
I stand corrected 83 rushes wether designed or not would make him a DT Qb
I just never viewed him that way

You seem to be confusing being a dual threat QB and playing in a spread system.

We've implemented a lot of zone read QB option stuff recently. Going forward, while not on the level of OM or AU, we're expected to use dual threat QBs to run more than we have before. Especially with the likes of Hurts and potentially Tua.

It's down to Bama and USC. Defiantly a great athlete will be interesting to see how it goes.

He's resistant about being a great athlete?

TWatts is usually solid with his predictions. We're definitely all in on dual threat QBs. I think Sims sold Saban on their additional value. Barnett, Hurts, and now hopefully Tua.

He had them at LSU too. But their value is more significant now.
Posted on 5/2/16 at 12:22 pm to CapstoneGrad06
Did he announce?
Edit: I'm an idiot. That's pm not am
