AJ McCarron is royalty in Alabama, underrated everywhere else

This is a link to the Sports Illustrated article. A long but very good read.

A self-proclaimed "reformed gunslinger," McCarron sort of splits the difference between his friend Johnny Manziel and Tim Tebow. He's hardly a bad boy -- he has already graduated with a degree in health studies; the next time he gets in trouble will be the first. But McCarron also comes equipped with a streak of defiance. Consider this moment from a recent practice: He was leading "Bamajacks," a team stretching exercise, when he spotted Nick Saban off to the side. "Somebody wake Coach Saban's ass up!" McCarron yelled, mocking the voice and cadence of the sport's most intense and influential figure. "He doesn't seem like he's ready to practice today!"

This article is worth reading even if you have to watch the commercial.  If nothing else to read the A.J. Starr story.  Good man, AJ!  ROLL TIDE!!!!  Beat UT-Chattanooga!      Thanks, pmull!

Let's not have royalty.  Dispensing with it was a good idea in 1776 and it is still a good idea. That kind of think cultivates the kind of behavior that cultivates ugly, selfish, and irresponsible behavior in players.
