🏈 CFN: 2011 Alabama Preview - Quarterback and Receivers

[TerryP]

With the start of every season there are areas of concern as well as those of promise when we look ahead at what the Tide will field in the fall.

This year is no exception. With what most would term significant losses—starting quarterback Greg McElroy and 1st round draftee Julio Jones—a lot see the possibility of a drop off when it comes to offensive production.

College Football News' Pete Fiutak takes an in depth look at the 2011 Alabama Quarterbacks and Wide Receivers.

What is the deal w/ Michael Bowman? Is he making any real progress w/ the 7 on 7's?

 

[TerryP]

We have a lot of speed in our WR corps, but we don't have anyone—as of yet—that has shown that play making ability yet.

In my opinion, it's a lack of development which I put at the feet of Cignetti.

It's weird. If you look across our WR's Brandon Gibson could be considered the most qualified. He knows the X, Y, and Z position like the back of his hand. He's yet to bring that knowledge on the field.

Again, 7 on 7's. It's about like spring scrimmages. You can only take so much away from those drills.

I will tell you this. AJ passed 205 a long time ago. I talked to him a week ago, and my first comment was "What in the world have they been feeding you?"

That tattoo he got is straight up laughable though.

I ribbed him a little about that too. He took it in stride, and laughed about it. At the end of the day, if that is the worst he has done, we are in great shape.
