What will classify Coker as a bust in the eyes of the SECr

Alabama fans have already anointed him the next coming of Christ, so anything less than that will be a bust.

Actually, you're judging him on stats. Because if you really watch his garbage time footage and take away any throwaways/drops, he IS accurate.

---

I have watched his film and he is NOT accurate, especially when he is under pressure. But like you said, if you take away the interceptions and incomplete passes, he is very accurate

I'm interested in seeing Coker lead Bama's offense against UF's defense, especially with Bama having a weaker offensive line than in year's past.

This season will be great.

Its this kind of logic that makes Alabama fans look dumb. So because a different QB in years past did well, Coker will do well too. Ya know, because history repeats itself amirite?

Does this mean that Auburn will make it to the National Championship game this year because they always go the ship with a JUCO Qb?

Logic like yours is what makes me think you scared. From the reasons you gave that our new QB has no shot(because he lacks experince), it was a fair assessment. Dwi.

Jacob Coker (on his best day)=Jake Locker.

We only need him to have his best two or three times. So ill take it. AJ had his best day in the natty vs LSU. As a rook.

Is this your best comeback? You scared? Cant wait to see the meltdown when Alabama doesnt live up to your unrealistic expectations

---

What part is unrealistic about me saying we have won 2 national championships in the past 5 years with QB's with no experience? Have u watched Alabama football recently. We win with Defense. Last year was a little different(not champs, poor D), but the two national championships I'm mentioning were won with D. You agree?

And you think your defense will be better this year??? Only position that may be improved will be the defensive line. Linebackers will take a step back and the secondary is average at best with the exception of Collins

But this thread is about Coker. Not the previous Qbs that had a couple years in the system before they took the reins. Coker hasnt even had a spring to learn the playbook. Huge difference

Bama's secondary will still be better than the vast majority of the SEC's. Only ones I'm certain will be better off the top of my head will be LSU's and Florida's.

I will give Bammers this, he has probably had the playbook for awhile now. He is a pretty smart dude from all accounts, so I can't see him not knowing the plays on paper. On the field with 300 pound linemen after you is a different story, however.

Personally, I think Coker will be middle of the pack in a weak QB year for SEC squads. Most games won't even come down to his ability to pass at all, but if he gets into close ones late with Auburn, LSU, Florida, and maybe someone like aTm I don't see him putting the team on his back if that is what it comes to.

Duke Coker is the truth. Get your popcorn ready.
