Re: Potential QB Transfer Jacob Coker Updates

I'm sure he will see a lot of similarities to what he's already learned in Tallahassee. That was part of the allure for him transferring here.

Effectively, this will be like a JUCO (3 to play 2) but instead 2 years to play 2 seasons. Seeing how we don't intend to redshirt him because he's an early starter favorite, it is basically the same thing.

Re: Coker has committed to Alabama...

1st year starters at QB are winning big time nowadays. This makes me feel even better with whomever wins the qb battle. We're going back to the ship 2015. RTR

With AJ leaving , and Coker coming in, Spring & Fall practice will be exciting once again..The QB race will be fun as it unfolds..I can't wait & see the A Day Game this go around..I really hope I can go watch it this year..

Re: Potential QB Transfer Jacob Coker Updates

Sounds like as long as he picks up the offense and puts in work he is likely to be the starter. Does anyone know, can Bama send him our playbook for him to be learning? Not saying we would, just wondering is that is something we would do to give him a headstart before fall camp.
I think that he has all of the books he needs to study between now and May...Welcome Mr. Coker, and Roll Tide!!!

Re: Coker has committed to Alabama...

Finally! Look for him to enroll for the summer session after graduating from FSU this spring.

The down side of all this is that now we have to find another subject to beat to death. :)

With everything in place for a national championship run in our brand new playoff, only thing missing is a QB. Nothing but a win-win situation for Alabama. May the best QB win.

Well, we can always discuss crimson vs. white helmets, names or no names on the back jerseys, and, finally, will Mike Ford ever play for the Tide?

A detail that should not be forgetten - Coker will not be participating in spring drills of game.

Re: Coker has transferred to Alabama per Bleacher Report....

I read an AL.com article that listed our QB's and it didn't list Alec Morris. Is he still on our team as far as we know?

Nope. He's signed. He's onboard.
He still has to graduate from FSU.

Can he actually sign with Alabama while he's still a student (presumably still on scholarship) at FSU?

I don't know, but it would seem inconsistent to me.

Haven't heard otherwise.

Saban said he signed with Alabama. Guess he can.
