I think the important thing is what Bamadoc mentioned above. Hurts won the team
Unfortunately, I have to agree that Barnett might've been the better QB long-term. He has a great, accurate throwing arm. He might even have NFL potential
If Barnett lights it up at ASU, and Hurts continues to struggle, our fans might be a little upset

I think he will do well at ASU. Coaches wanted Hurts all along and that was evident IMO. Maybe it was because of his attitude. I sure would have liked to have seen what OJ, Ridley, Stewart, and company could have done with a more accurate passer.

He threw a couple of good, accurate balls in games at Alabama, I wouldn't deem him as having a "great, accurate arm" based on just that, especially considering how much of a turnover machine he was in scrimmages. Hurts threw many more great, accurate throws in an Alabama uniform last year than Barnett, yet we talk about him like he is Spencer Pennington back there.
Its like having a great girlfriend that you are dissolutioned with because you see her bad side sometimes. Even though she is sweet, loving, and puts a lot of effort into the relationship, you want to give up on her, and break up with her, because you spend a ton of time with her and see all of her flaws. You want to leave her for this other girl because she is also pretty. You think she is great because she smiles at you, and tells you nice things when you see her out from time to time. but you haven't seen her weak moments yet. She is a total head-case cvnt once you get to know her.
Like Saban said, the grass is always greener atop the septic tank.

Some of our fans will always be a little upset about our QB situation, no matter who is back there. Just the way it is. Fact is, Barnett quit before he even had a chance to relieve a struggling Hurts, and then victimized himself because Saban claimed that he was "nervous" in his start against USC.
Our football team's culture is to do your job, and play for the guy next to you. He was too much of a "me" person to be on our team apparently.
