re: I admit it, I am scared of Keelon Russell.

Well. At least you get to face Bama's D.

That's a hell of an endorsement when you consider that the last 6 Alabama QBs have been drafted within the first 92 spots:

Ty Simpson - 1st round, #13 overall
Jalen Milroe - 3rd round, #92 overall
Bryce Young - 1st round, #1 overall
Mac Jones - 1st round, #15 overall
Tua Tagovailoa - 1st round, #5 overall
Jalen Hurts- 2nd round, #53 overall

Hurts was drafted out of OU & was a serviceable run-first QB at Bama. Bryce & Tua are the most talented on this list.

The rest were solid college QBs who benefited immensely from playing on stacked teams in a different era.

Keelon has the potential to carry a team & have a college career more comparable to Young’s… and if he does pan out I think he will make a better NFL QB than Young or Tua.

Pat yourself on the back, but you are kidding yourself if you think anyone outside Bama gives a shite about Mac Jones, Ty Simpson, or Jalen Milroe

To be clear, I’m not measuring his potential based on when I think he might be picked in the draft. He simply has arm talent, is mobile, has shown moxie at a young age, and he’s got good size.
