I think the real deal future stud is Anthony Richardson.I would not risk scaring JJ away, hopefully Franks continues to develop. He has improved far more than I thought capable already.
Until there’s an injury and he’s forced to play and ruin his chance at one last year. He’s a senior who isn’t getting drafted, high at least. It makes perfect sense for him to leave@DanWolken: Dabo said he told Bryant he could have stayed on the roster under agreement not to play him the rest of this year.
Maybe some of these kids should ask themselves if they really want to go to Clemson, Bama, and Ugay's of world. They sign all these 5 stars in the same positions and then get beat out by a Freshman later. Well no shyt. Where is Eason now, who knows where Hurts will end up and now Bryant.
You might start getting a situation where every blue chip recruited QB bolts after a few games if they are beat out by someone that has the same or more eligibility remaining.
Eason is sitting out the year at Washington.
The reason these kids go to the Bama's and UGA's is those schools have outstanding recruiters who convince the kids they can beat the guy in front of him...or to not be afraid of competition...or learning behind an All-American will make them better....and the kids want to win championships. It's the same reason Meyer was able to sign all the kids he signed.
All that said he would turn this team into a 10 plus game winner with his skill set and Mullins offense to go along with the stellar WR's, and RB's we have now.....I'd take him in a heartbeat over Hurts or anything we've got on this roster now or in the next 2 seasons.Kid thought about leaving the team in the summer because he knew the competition... You knew that he was going to bail as soon as it was obvious he wasn't the man.
At some point you gotta figure it out though. Meyer NEVER recruited like Saban.
Gotta figure what out? Meyer signed two #1 classes at UF didn't he?
Meyer was generally outstanding in recruiting, outside of his neglect for OL and a very lopsided 2010 class. But I don't think I've ever seen anyone stack a roster quite like Saban. Teams always seemed to be able to play the "playing time" card against us, just as we have when another team is loaded at a position. Ironically, you just updated CJ Worton's thread, and he's a prime example. I don't see that with Alabama.
They had a 4* kid fly to Paris to announce, and then somehow talked him into gray-shirting. Really wrap your head around that.
I'm on the fence on this one. But I'm leaning towards not wanting either of these transfers. If we aren't close to competing for the playoff, what's the point?
