If we lose one of either Jalen or Tua will signing a qb in this class make a jump in importance? In other words, can Mac Jones play if needed?

Depth is always good but the sentiments before the NC game is if we missed on a QB this cycle we would be fine. Just my thoughts but I'm thinking Mac Jones may be the one that will be transferring out of the 3.

I apologize. I mean the Foster kid from Montgomery. The minds a little fuzzy these days.

We need a QB in this class no matter what. And we don't need anybody to transfer if all possible but know that may not happen. With that said I think Purdy is the take over Foster but somebody else may emerge in the next 4 weeks.

I wonder if Purdy is being offered as more of a "signal giver", "holder", "scout QB" - type QB. Someone that can emulate a pro-style QB.....

make no mistake , Purdy is legit. he doesn't have ideal measurable, but he is very good. watch his films and determine for yourself. honestly, I think he is underrated and should have been ranked higher. I truly hope he pulls the trigger and after reading his interview, I think he is very , very excited to get an offer from Alabama. I don't think Bama gave him a full ride just to hold the clipboards or be on the scout team.
as others have alluded, you always want a QB in every class. 3 scholarship QB on your roster isn't enough . every player is one play away from season ending. lastly, transfers are real concerns at every major school.

Aren't we going bonkers over a short, left handed quarterback right now? Dude looks good hitting receivers in stride, which is a skill that can be improved upon with practice.

I’m confused. Are you saying he needs improvement hitting receivers in stride?
I'm saying that throwing to kids in Arizona high school is a little different than throwing to receivers in college, the guy does it well and I'm sure it's something he can improve on.

He has a commitable offer from the reining national champions, so I am assuming he ain't chopped liver.
