Hurts is a great player. Took an absolutely brutal shot during a sack early on and bounced his head off the astroturf hard. Don’t go full ‘tard on the guy.

If Tua does become the starter(near unanimous assumption), Alabama's gonna have to "redesign" its offense, not necessarily replace it with something else. Imo, there'll be a shift in priorities regarding which formations to become more heavily involved with, given different game situations. One thing that you can bet money on is that we'll still be a run first offense!

I know someone who knows someone that cuts the hair of a lady who's son's oil change guy's best friend's 3rd cousin mows Jalen's great aunt's nextdoor neighbor's lawn that said Jalen stays at Bama

This is the thing many are missing in the discussions about which will play. The championship game was a come-from-behind game and required more passing. Tua can and will be a run 1st guy but he can certainly throw too. Jalen is a very good runner but mediocre passer because he lacks timing and confidence. I wish he had progressed and want him to stay and try to do so but Tua is the guy in my opinion. How could you keep him off the field now?

They are delusional if they think he will be playing QB in the pros. Might as well get his reps at a more appropriate position
you are even MORE delusional if you think he's going to get drafted at ANY position LMFAO. you guys are something else. You dont get auto-drafted just b/c you suited up for Bama.

He ain’t playing QB in the NFL

Who besides some TD posters say Jalen has NFL aspirations? The guy likes playing QB so go where he can play QB.

There is nothing wrong with just being a really good college football player. Coach Bryant had 100's of them that didn't play in the NFL.

TCU would be a good fit. He doesn't have a chance at Bama, mainly because the fans have turned on him. Most turned before the game, now it would turn ugly even if he beat Tua out this Spring.

I don't know any BAMA fans who have "turned on him." Most simply want the best option at QB and Tua showed us that Monday night.
I hope Jalen will stay on and help the team in whatever way is best for him and the team. He is smart enough to decide what direction he should take and has enough character to put the team first.
The team deserves the QB who gives the team the best opportunity to win and that will be benefit everyone.

Are they knowledgeable fans who have actually watched and seen the difference or just casual fans?
I have talked to a few women, who think with emotion rather than logic, who believe Jalen should start despite the fact Tua is better. Those with little knowledge should not be considered seriously.
