Yep, you let them be them.Not likely. In championship games, you just let the kids play. You can't worry about injuries.

Good interview with Tua from TideSports.com. Tua says he will be the scout team QB if we make it to the final.He will be on the campus in Jan.... but I see what you mean. But I still think he probably can practice with the team but the question is, is it the week of championship? Jalen Hurt played in an all American game and joined the team right?
Yeah, I kept wondering why CNS would grant releases and leave us with no QB.I believe Coach Saban has to sign off on both their releases and I would imagine he has told both they have to stick around through the play-off. I know there is a grace period at all schools for registering late and being able to attend class.
Yes, I totally believe Cornwell will finish out the season.
I'm reading elsewhere that Morris is going to Central Michigan, where are you hearing he is coming here?See my post on the Bateman transferring thread re: Shane Morris former Michigan starter transferring after December.
That's not the case for either of them. They've both been at Bama for at least 2 years (Cornwell is set to graduate), and they've been team players throughout their time on campus. Now that a TRUE Freshman won the starting job, they know that if they want to play while they still have any eligibility left, their only option is to transfer.Get use to this. This is the future of college football. The youth these days expect to be immediate contributors. At Alabama it is going to be worse because of the talent we are recruiting out of high school.

The use of the word "opportunity" caught my attention as well but I don't think Cornwell meant it in a negative fashion. I think he meant it as he simply never made it to the field of play. I would feel worse about it if he had said something like the coaches never gave him the opportunity. All semantics I guess..I thank David for his contributions and wish him well. However, that being said, I'll disagree with him and the statement he released. He said, "Although I never got that opportunity at Alabama". Well, I disagree. From the first moment he stepped into the Bama locker room he had every opportunity to learn, work out, practice, and get good enough to win the job.
The fact that he couldn't do it doesn't mean he didn't have an opportunity.
Still, he seems to be a great kid and I wish him well.

IIRC, he's been injured every season since he's been on campus. While he's practiced and gone through spring practice, I'm not sure he's ever been 100% throughout an entire offseason. If that is the case, he really hasn't had the opportunity.I thank David for his contributions and wish him well. However, that being said, I'll disagree with him and the statement he released.
