So then explain why Nick Saban felt Hurts was not the right guy to win a national championship and Tagovailoa was (which proved true), but now the very next season with no intervening games in between, he suddenly feels Hurts is once again the guy who should start? You honestly don't think...

Here's the problem with your argument: Jalen Hurts was the starter in camp for Bama before Tagovailoa hurt his hand. This year. So why would Saban realize that Tagovailoa gave him the best chance to win a national championship, which you stated above and which I wholeheartedly agree with, and...

Funny that one of the staff writers for this very website you frequent wrote an article that shares not only my opinion, but that of many other posters. It doesn't matter what I "want". Like I said, Malik is going to start against LSU. It is what it is. You can assume it's because he was...

You realize you're proving my point with this drivel, right? First off, Tereshinski wasn't a redshirt senior, he was a junior. And second, he was named the starter before the season, much like Malik will be named the starter before the season. And surely enough, it took him ****ting the bed...

You clearly need to calm down. I never said Rosier is worse than Perry. I said Jarren Williams should get a chance to start in another thread, I never once touted Perry. But let's get back to my point, which is that there are extenuating circumstances that dictate why a redshirt senior...

You're leaving out the crucial part about Tereshinski getting benched only after he injured his ankle, and it wasn't before the start of the season. If I was looking for that type of example I would have used my own re: Hurts/Tagovailoa. Someone name me one redshirt senior QB incumbent starter...

My point remains that when you have a senior (let alone redshirt senior) incumbent starting QB, you aren't benching him for a freshman QB absent an injury to the senior. And it ain't just because the senior is better. Still waiting on you to provide an example of a redshirt senior incumbent...

It's not convoluted circular logic, it's time tested. Name me one instance of a freshman QB named starter against an incumbent senior QB. Just one. We saw it last year with Bama. Saban started Hurts over Tagovailoa even though the latter tore it up in practice and their Spring game. Why...

The problem is that there are ulterior motives that lead Rosier to be the starter vs. LSU that transcend who is the best QB on the roster. Once you start a freshman over a redshirt senior, there's no turning back. You've planted your flag and QB roulette is the worst thing you can do, so...
