It was a mistake to bench Tua even in his Freshmen season. I believe even Saban feels that, it almost cost us a title.

I don't recall Tua being benched in his freshman season. He didn't START, but that's a completely different situation.

If Young is even better than Tua, this is a no-brainer.

That's a might big "if," hombre. Young has played a grand total of zero snaps, significant or otherwise, at the college level. We have no idea how good he will be.

I want to see Bryce as the starter. If you start Mac, Bryce is gone, and you just don’t let that happen.

You have no basis whatsoever for either part of this statement. In fact, when Young committed, there was a very good chance Tua would return for his senior season, and Young knew that. I don't know the young man, but he apparently has no issue learning the ropes for a year before being handed the keys full-time.

On the flip side, if you start Bryce, our QB room DOES empty out. Maybe we still have Tyson -- MAYBE -- but that will be it. You want our entire 2020 (and maybe 2021) season to sink or swim based on the health of a completely unproven-at-this-level, 195-pound quarterback?
