Odds that he finishes with better college stats than Jaxson Dart, Quinn Ewers, or Carson Beck??

50:50??

I don't even think it's that high

Brock bowers left California to goto uga because of the good ole fashioned football practices. Just like tuas family moved to Alabama from Hawaii for some good old fashioned southern charm

It's a good chance for a season, not a career. It all depends on where he transfers. If impermissible recruiting violations are found, that would have to be outside of the SEC, no?

If you are saying Alabama scouted, and decided Tua was "possibly a generational QB" and went "all in" on him...OK

The SEC is a hell of a transition for players and teams..."Looking At U Texas"

Saban told Alabama it's the playes that win the game. Simple but true. He knew it and put in place everythig he could to evaluate and obtain the best players.

Same as it's always been.

Too bad he didn’t build depth.

I bet he does. He looked pretty good in his bowl game.

Now show the 2021 Natty and your recent playoff game. Even y’all were whining about injured players being the reason for your embarrassing losses. No depth. Tsk tsk.

Yes, Alabama losing their top two receivers hurt them against Georgia in the national championship. No one can logically argue that a team losing their top two receivers won’t hurt an offense. Especially with no games to prep their replacements.

I don’t recall anyone bitching about injuries in this year’s playoffs. People were bitching about sacks, boneheaded QB decisions, and the center constantly delivering bowling ball snaps.

Now, let’s do Georgia this year. I recall a LOT of Georgia posters lamenting Brock Bowers injury. And while we are at it, how did Georgia do in the SEC championship and playoffs this year?

The road goes both ways.

3 years as a starter in Heupels O with the talent around him? Absolutely. No question.

In 4 years of play Beck will likely end up around 7,000 yards, 4 to 1 TD to Int, 140 yards rushing.

Dart will likely see closer to 1500 yards rushing and closer to 9,000 yards passing with a 4 to 1 td to Int ratio.

Ewers is likely to be around 9,000 yards passing, maybe 50 yards rushing and 3 to 1 td to Int.

Assuming 2-3 more years for Nico there is no reason to believe he will not pass Beck in every category and only trail in passing yards to the other two due to not playing his 4th year of eligibility.

Lol, we had our back up QB come in and beat Georgia in the natty and then again the next year in the SECCG.

Williams and Metchie had over 2,500 receiving yards in 2021, there is no replacing that and you dumb asses know that. Or maybe you don't since you've never had a receiving duo with those numbers.

That was Jeremy Pruitt's DB recruiting at UGA.

If you notice, we didn't retain him.
A bunch of 3 star diamonds in the rough that could get the job done in 80% of the games played.
For a grouping that goes 6 deep (DBs), we hardly had any NFL talent.

It’s so sad bama is the only team to deal with injuries. Maybe one day bama will recruit well enough to have some depth.

Odds that you're a fricking moron? I would put them at 100%.

"I'll bet a first year quarterback doesn't do as well as guys who have been playing for three or four years."

You're really going out on a limb there, aren't you? You bonehead Dawg-faced moron.
