We're going to be doing something a little different with our typical 2025 Alabama Preview article. It's now an eight-parter with some more in-depth looks at the personnel in each position group. Kicking it off, of course, are the QBs.

Thanks JessN!

No surprises, which is probably a good thing.

My question, which is probably impossible to answer, is what happens with Keelon if TS isn't a one-and-done starter this year and decides to return for another year?

I'm anxious to see how TS does. As Jess stated, if he loses the starting job then things likely won't be going well for the Tide.

Key takeaway for all 3 QBs - very little to zero experience. :(

That means we'll just have to wait and see how it all shakes out.

Only 1 of 2 options

Stay and continue to compete and may the best QB win…

Or

Dip off to another team for more money and/or playing time in which my stance would be…

IMO you really sugarcoated Mack’s analysis. He was by far the worst QB at A-Day and there was no mention of his tendency to force INTs. Most people have said Russell has already passed him for the backup role. I doubt Mack ever plays at Bama, barring injuries to Simpson and Russell.
