“Initially, you were allowed to work out for as long as there weren’t more than 10 people, so he was able to work out with his quarterback coach. We have a good setup out here -- he has a strength coach, he has a speed coach and he’s able to throw to some receivers -- so we had that going on. But as the restrictions tightened up and it was stay-at-home, it became more and more difficult. But he was always able to work out. We were able to find a gym where he could work out by himself. We’re pretty close to a school, so he was able to do his running.

“And the new strength and conditioning coaches had sent over a plan. Also, he had bands. He had the infamous Apple Watch that everyone made a big deal about that Alabama gave, he had those for monitoring the workouts. I don’t think there’s a day where he hasn’t worked out. Obviously, he usually takes off Sunday, but he’s been at it, for the most part, six days a week in some form or fashion since he’s got here.”

The nation’s No. 1 overall recruit for the 2020 cycle, according to 247Sports, Young has been focused throughout this unprecedented time. But one of the biggest adjustments for his parents was feeding him after two and a half months of being away at college. Listed at 190 pounds on Alabama’s roster, Young gained 20 pounds of good weight, according to his father.

I seriously doubt he'll start early in the season but if he's as good as advertised I would not be totally surprised if he's starting by the end of the year. More likely, though, I expect he'll get a lot of playing time running the entire offense and be the starting qb by next season.

Tyler Murray is probably about 5' 8 and has been very successful, so I'm really not sure why height is a major thing. If you are throwing shade at height then you must be afraid of his talent.

That said, here is another picture with 2 other quarterbacks in the Elite 11 camp. Maybe they're just growing qbs short these days?

He's 6'0 at best. I'm barely 6'1 and I was just about eye to eye with him at a coach's clinic last year.

The combine measured him at 5'10''

That being said, Young being 5'9'' isn't going to be the reason he doesn't succeed if that's the case.

Murray was very successful because of the system they ran and the League they played in. Height is a major factor in a QBs success due to the size of the DLs in todays College Game. Unless you want him out of the pocket every play, which is why Tua had injury issues (and he was 6'2").

Tua keeps growing in height and Bryce shrinks, every time of these threads are made.

You mean the National Football League? Murray completed over 64% of his passes, which was good enough to place him #20 in the "League"

Young and a couple of other qbs at the Elite 11
