2017 Alabama QB room



2017 Oklahoma 2 deep



4 NFL starters as of this post. 2 Heisman winners and most likely another one on the way in Mac if he keeps performing at a high level on the biggest stage.

Unreal.

I honestly don't think Jaylen Hurt was good enough to make it to the bigs until after he went and spent that time at Oklahoma. I mean, don't get me wrong, he was good and all, but he wasn't really what you would consider big leagues good. Alabama isn't really known for producing a lot of QB talent.

They're trying to build themselves into that though, and to that I gotta say kudos to Sabans for not letting the game pass him by. He's smart enough to realize that 3 yards and a cloud of dust stuff he used to run isn't going to cut it anymore with the way the rules have been adjusted in recent years to give the offense all the advantage. Things like the bullshite, call-it-however-your-feels-tell-ya targeting call are making it so that you simply cannot rely on spending all your Dodge Charger money on defensive studs and win the ball game. You're gonna have to throw it around a bit.

I think in time Alabama may even become known as a "QB school" if they keep it up.

But yeah, Lincoln Riley turned Jaylen into a starting NFL QB. Good for Jaylen. He deserves it. I always liked that kid.
