Moving Forward

After A-Day, if there was a favorite, I would love to hear it. And if Tyler Buchner can really be the opening day starter, I’d love to know what exactly has changed since the Notre Dame spring game.

In conclusion:

This QB competition will bleed into the summer and fall camp.

And no matter what anybody might think of the guys Alabama football had during the spring, it’s obvious the coaches were not content with who was in their quarterback room.

And it’s also apparent that all three quarterbacks – Milroe, Simpson, and Buchner – believe they can win the job.

Because Buchner would not have come if he thought he was going to sit.

And Milroe, along with Simpson, didn’t immediately bounce to the portal.

This should make for an interesting fall for Alabama football.
