“Seems like a dream, not always a good dream, but a dream that I never quit believing would become a reality,” Milroe told ESPN. “From where I was, the way I was doubted — and even some people in this building [Alabama’s football complex] doubted me — it truly blows my mind to where it’s all led to, and the best part, where it’s led to for our team.”
He is carrying a chip on his shoulder. As long as it is used in a positive way, I like it. But he needs to be careful. Better to accept his role in those doubts than think poorly of the doubters.

Thanks...the quote I was trying to link was the one above that one (which is good) where he talks about the doubters, people who said he wasn't smart enough, etc. to play QB @ Alabama. Now I cannot find it on X. He basically said that he outworked all the doubters.

I just hope he plays his best game of the season...it will take that to beat UGA.

“I was told I would never be the starting quarterback at Alabama,” Milroe said. “I’ve been told I was not smart enough to play the position. I’ve been told everything. Even when I was named the starter at the beginning of the season, I don’t think a lot of people thought I would keep it, and if I did, that we were going to have a bad season. So, yes, I’ve faced a lot of obstacles. The main thing is the right people believed in me, here at Alabama and within my family, and I remained grounded in believing in who I am.


“That takes you a long way.”
