Quarterbacks: D'Eriq King comes in at #3
3.]
INJURED D’Eriq King (Gr.), Miami, Sept. 4, Atlanta.
2020 season: Houston transfer settled in as a team captain and proceeded to pass for 2,686 yards and 23 touchdowns while running for 538 yards and four more scores. Threw just five interceptions in 329 pass attempts. Honorable mention all-ACC choice sustained an ACL injury in Hurricanes’ bowl game loss to Oklahoma State.
Area where Alabama will need to be effective: In the ramp up to next season, King's recovery from knee surgery will be on the radar of every UA fan. From the UM perspective, when a quarterback room depleted by transfers is considered, it takes on even greater concern. Even if King, who would be at the top of this list if not for injury, is able to go against Alabama in the opener, will he be at a point where Miami offensive coordinator
Rhett Lashlee has full access of the playbook? The arrival of wide receiver
Charleston Rambo from Oklahoma should prove helpful where the passing game is concerned.
