He's very athletic, and I think that was a real plus for our team to have him there for a few days to be able to have that kind of quickness for us to try to react to." – Saban Imagine opponents having to prepare for 2 Bama offenses!! :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Title: Re: "Jalen Hurts is the talented wild card in Alabama QB race" Post by: Jamos on April 15, 2016, 06:39:54 AM He seems to be a very good athlete, you never know where he will end up playing. :dunno:

I hope they create some plays for him occasionally, to throw off the opponent's defense. I know that would burn his red shirt, but he's apparently an immense talent.

RTR!

I didn't see a thing out of the other QB's that impressed me that much but I did see some things in Hurts that could propel him with some good work in the off season. It's a stretch to think this but if he is as coachable as he seems to be, he is going to push some folks at the QB position come next fall. I was also impressed with Harris running the ball, he is coming in to what folks have expected him to be.
To me, the team is about where it was at this time last year with the QB position being the weak link in the chain and I look for fall practice to be a battle field for that position.

I am ready to see who is going to lead us down that NCG path this year. Could it be young MR Hurts or blake or is one of the seasoned guys going to step up? RTR!

CNS has not started a true freshman QB at Alabama. I do not think he is opposed to it. He has repeated stated that he will start the player at any position that gives the team the best chance to be successful. In the press conference yesterday he said that you cannot rush naming a starter. It is as important to win the teams respect as it is the coaching staff. No one did that this Spring. The last two years has taught me not to get too concerned over the QB position based on the A-Day game. Sims and Coker did fine but looked terrible at A-Day. Title: Re: "Jalen Hurts is the talented wild card in Alabama QB race" Post by: Catch Prothro on April 17, 2016, 02:34:33 PM Jalen Hurt is a huge talent but don't get caught up in his A-Day stats. Great TD pass, and he likely would have had a ton of rushing yards but for the touch tackling.
One long completion should have been an INT though -- the defender knocked the ball up and it happened to land in the receiver's hands. Also, I don't think he was facing the same #1 Defense that the starting QB faced. Still, this kid is special and might just keep Kiffin around a few more years. |
