Who's the QB next year?

HSV256 · Nov 13, 2014

I know we're all about 1 game/season at time, but I'm very curious about this.

The assumption is Coker, but I'm in the camp that says Coker would've won it this year if he's capable of winning it. Plus, the fact that Coker's gotten beat out by Winston and then Sims tells me he may be lacking *something* required to start in the SEC.

Will Cornwell be ready? What about Bateman or Barnett?

Gotta get through the season

I'll let coach worry about that. He gets paid to. I don't.

I think that Sims proved that conjecture can be entertaining for the fans, but reality can differ greatly from perception once the players get on the field.

That doesn't mean anything.

I'm hoping who the QB is next year won't matter as much. Meaning I hope we get back to smash mouth power running between the tackle and a dominant defense. Hopefully next year we can dictate when we want to throw instead of throwing because we have to..

Kenyan Drake -- Hell, CLK took a Running Back and turned him into the 2nd highest rated QB in the country -- that's freaking amazing.

AgentAntiOrange · Nov 13, 2014

I don't think there's any way to even speculate at this point. Injuries could play a factor, transfers, etc. Also, consider how this year Sims was an afterthought until fall practice for the most part. I think we'll at least have to get through the spring before we can really even discuss it.

My mind is focused on dispatching the Bulldogs, getting to the SECCG with an 11-1 record, making it into 4 team playoff and bringing home #16. I will focus on next years QB after these things have been accomplished.

Meh. Helps pass time till the business of Saturday gets here. I think Coker will have a much better grasp of the offense by the end of the Spring. I think Morris is 3rd right now, but Coach sounded pretty high on Bateman as scout team QB this season. Should make for interesting discussion over the winter/early spring.

Bama Reb · Nov 13, 2014

There will be lots of competition for the job next year. Coker may or may not be among the competitors, but you can bet that there will be plenty. Which is why we'll still be discussing it at next year's A-Day game..

BAMAVILLE · Nov 13, 2014

Saturday cant get here quick enough

Alasippi · Nov 13, 2014

Obviously Coker would be considered the front runner, because he earned the current back up position, and has done a very good job when he's had a chance to play.
The drive he led for a TD against Florida, following Blake's injury, was the game changer in my opinion, so he's shown he has "the stuff".
That's my contribution.
I now return to my regularly scheduled programming, which is focusing on the two quarterbacks that matter the most right now, and that's Blake and Dak.
Next year is about 107 years away as far as I'm concerned. Let's just beat MSU.

Oh goodness...

I'm sticking with the same prediction I made in late July of this season: Cooper Bateman.

I am clearly a wiz at personnel selection.

JustNeedMe81 · Nov 13, 2014

not going there. Just focusing on the game this weekend. We'll talk about this in Spring.

81usaf92 · Nov 13, 2014

Coker or Cornwall would be my bet. Leaning Coker more tho because it would give Cornwall and Barnett more time in the system. That's as far as I'll go because we need to beat the bullfrauds this week

ontopp · Nov 13, 2014

Don't care,But I hope Coker is getting the offense, in case we need him this year.

crimson fan man · Nov 13, 2014

Good discussion. I think Coker is the front runner but we have so much talent on his heels not counting Barnett.
