Alabama dissing Deshaun?
Jan 4, 2016, 10:44 PM
|
|
just read on fox sports that alabama is using a 2016 mid-year enrollee,jalen hurts,to simulate Deshaun in practice.makes you wonder how seriously they are taking us.even raised eye brows with the fox sports people.do they really think that a kid literally just out of high school is going to play the role of the guy who just humiliated mighty Oklahoma and show their defense what they can expect from #4?hoping and praying that's the case.

To look for on Monday. They can't read but they can recognize shapes.

I am sure it is the closest thing they have to D.W. Alabama does not have that style Q.B.

I'm hoping they get used to that guy's moves

And expect Deshaun to move at the same pace and with similar moves.

And coach v was better. Did you see the article about the call on the 4th down that the d knew what was coming because they had seen it on film. Baker walks down line as if to change play and a direct snap to rb. Coach V ran that 20x it says, well done on the studying.

Nobody is going to disrespect Deshaun

Alabama knows he is the best qb in the country and is going to do everything in their power to stop him (they won't). Who are they supposed to us? Call Russell Wilson and ask him to please come to practice?

Seriously? You use the backup most like the opposing QB in practice. None of Bama's five QBs on the fall roster were dual-threat type QBs. So the early enrollee is the QB with the skill set most similar to Watson.

If you think Bama will not be prepared, then you have been living under a rock for the last 7 years.

Baker Mayfield had Oklahoma feeling righteous and you see what happened there... Let Jalen pretend and they'll figure it out on the field.

How can that be, Alabama doesn't start there spring semester until the 14th. Wouldn't think he'd be eligible.

If Bama doesn't start class until 13 Jan then how can they have a guy who isn't in class and isn't on a scholarship (very doubtful that they don't already have 85 on scholarship or 115 on the roster).

They don't recruit duel threat quarterbacks. He's probably being used because of his running skills in certain situations.

How is this dissing Watson?? Alabama doesn't have any dual threat QBs. Stop taking this stuff so personal.

You're right. Alabama is ignorant of all NCAA rules and willing to risk NCAA sanctions to have an early enrollee play the role of Watson in practice.

I seriously doubt a mid-year enrollee can be practicing already, because classes haven't started there...so, the clock hasn't started. Could be wrong...but, that doesn't make much sense.

Why take this like an insult?
If they figure that's who's available to give some kind of emulation of a dual-threat QB, then that's what they should do.
They gots what they gots. Option B was a remote control car with an inflatable santa on top.
