Grad Transfer Recruiting 2018

That`s good to hear. I assume that a potential grad transfer would " visit " just like any other recruit, although maybe not limited in the number they can take (?). Whatever, sure hope we can land him if he looks like a good fit.
Looks like Pruitt may get our potential QB transfer Minshew from ECU.

Funny how Bama puts the spotlight on players with an offer and all of the sudden teams are coming out of the woodwork with interest. We'll see.
Yep, he may actually have a chance to compete for the main role there as well, tough call for him but I wish him the best either way.
Well, my understanding was that he wanted to be close to home for family. Knoxville is right at 7 hours from home for him, while Tuscaloosa two and a half. Sure, ECU is 13, but if he chooses UT, then to me, his reasoning for leaving ECU was disingenuous.
It really just depends on his focus moving forward. If he feels that his future is in coaching he will pick Alabama. He has little to gain by going to UTK if he wants to be a coach. Maybe Gustav can talk him into going there, but I'd bet money on Bama over Auburn with their qb returning next year as well.
If he thinks he can elevate his game to the NFL level he will pick Tennessee and more power to him. If he wants to get into coaching after college he will pick Bama.

Well I guess no news is just as good as any regarding this subject. Seems to me that all of these potential transfers need us way more than we need them anyway. Let's see how lucky someone gets.
His dad said that his son does indeed want to be a coach and that the visit went great. Unless there's a last minute change, Bama is still the frontrunner for Gardner Minshew
Unless he’s a great holder, I don’t see the purpose of getting a 4th QB....other than emergency
Prep
... I've seen years when we had to use our 3rd and 4th string QB ... and it wasn't such a pretty thing. Four QB's is a good insurance policy, IMO
... since Minshew would probably be the elder QB in the room, he might have a different perspective to bring to the table.
... and, in light of his coaching aspirations, he could potentially become a good "sideline" analyst this coming season.
... just a thought
In 2014 we had to go three deep at QB, and we won it all. 4 deep has to be just an insurance policy against a worst case scenario, but after what happened last year at LB, who can blame Saban for wanting it?
I think CNS is also protecting against any possible transfer, there's always a chance you may not have four QBs when the season starts.
It's a great move for both parties, he gets to be a part of a championship program under the best collegiate coach out there to add to his future coaching resume and Bama gets an experienced capable qb who's seen game time action.
