Probably best to not rock the QB boat, but he remains an option.
I’m ignorant when it comes to Bateman’s style but I didn’t think he was necessarily a duel threat like the new OC likes is he? Seems like he may have worked out for A Rod but with what the new guy’s saying he’s “going” to do, I didn’t think Batemans a good fit. Am I wrong?
Doesn’t sound like he’s even an option for QB, which is good because we need to focus on developing our pipeline for the future.
That said we have several very talented and proven receivers, so I doubt Bateman will see the field at that position either.
Well, this pokes a hole in Gunther’s argument that there will be a QB controversy. But then again he also said that no QB on Utah’s roster can win a Pac-12 game, so there is that.
I don’t know this Bateman kid. But Alabama runs a pro style offense, not an option style. He would probably be a drop back pocket guy I’m guessing.
Actually, Alabama runs a spread offense and has done so for 3 years now since the hiring of Lane Kiffin. I don’t expect them to change under Sarkisan either.
How Saban recruits and builds his teams have drastically changed within the last 4-5 years. Even his defenses are primarily built upon speed now.
Alabam’s New Offense
I thought it was more of a pro style. Maybe it’s just because they look like pros. My bad I guess.
I can confirm that as my Aunt (my cousin Cooper Bateman) is enrolled for graduate program degree. He already has his undergrad. Now I don’t know what they will do but you know what Troy WIlliams can do now. I like Huntley and the Jason Shelley kid. So were pretty well set for the next few years for sure. But whatever happens I wish my cousin the best of luck with everything.
