If a quarterback fails to separate and claim the job by the end of fall camp, Saban said the Tide could begin the season rotating quarterbacks until one wins the position, like they did in 2011 with AJ McCarron and Phillip Sims.

"If it doesn't get decided — like it didn't when AJ and Phillip Sims were here — they both played a quarter, a quarter, a quarter and a quarter in the first game, and that's how we figured it out," Saban said. "So do I want it to happen that way? No. But I can't make this happen, as bad as everyone wants it to happen and they want to create this great hope that coach said this guy's the man. I can't make it happen."

Terry Saban — the "real head coach," Saban joked — will offer her take on the quarterbacks Saturday night...
