It's another helicopter father. It's not the first.

Won’t turn out good for son if that’s the case…

Tell that to Galu.

Last one was tua dad....

But how can it be fake? It’s printed & everything!

And on the internet.

And on the internet.

It ranks as one of the best trolls in Bama message board history ... and it might not be meant that way.

Milroe is starting to get some touch on deep balls. I'm entertaining a thought...is it boom or bust? IF it's a boom.

There is a reason a dual threat quarterback was recruited. And he wants to be a QB.

Forecast? He holds onto the ball too long.

Which isn't, really, a forecast. He's doing that.

if he can trust his instincts when to run, when to throw, he should be real good this fall.

"Right reads"

 

[TerryP]

"Right reads"

It's not about the INT. It's about which throw he isn't making. (And there's the other QB.)

 

[Justneedme81]

While I'm on this, and I don't dare posting this on other boards for they may overanalyze this shit.

I plan to watch Milroe/Simpson/Buchner very close. how the play is called for all three of them. I also will be counting their snap counts, where are the the right reads on each play. That'll give me an idea of where they are with their progression as a QB.

That's what I meant by that. Also, He needs to get the ball out little quicker and stop telegraphing his throw to receivers....

This is why I will miss CBS. Will we get the ALL-22 view? Nope.

How will you know what the read progression was supposed to be?

Anything being said about Richard Young? Just curious.

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Anything being said about Richard Young? Just curious.

Last I heard he was doing fine, just behind some really good players. I think he left the last scrimmage early dinged up, but nothing major.

From what I've seen of Milroe and Simpson... Milroe seems to have a stronger arm, but less accurate... he seems to have more zip. If he can get some better accuracy and make good reads, he could be an amazing QB with his speed and build. I'd love to seem him have that light switch turn on and own the spot. Honestly, either one is fine by me if the switch turns on. What I'm afraid of is that both will be "pushing" and trying too hard to win the spot and neither have that "ah-ha" moment.

You've described fall camp. When it comes down to decisions, Buchner has been that guy.

Chew on this for a bit: Take Mertz at Florida...he'd be battling Lonergan to run the scout team.

Okay... this is little, how do I put this in a way where I don't sound like a jackass..... This is somewhat redundant statement we've been hearing for weeks.... I think Saban is going to drill the message into QBs this week by telling them to focus on doing their job and don't worry about anything else.










If you pay attention to what Saban is saying in the press conference and maybe i'm wrong....

Milroe: consistency
Simpson: Don't focus on mistakes.. forget the last play. move on to the next play. Similar to Mac Jones as @TerryP said previously.
Buchner- We haven't heard much about him, just that he's a safe option.
