Tua and Hurts at Alabama

[jay_hq]

So one of the most legendary coaches in college football, Nick Saban, had Tua and Hurts on his roster at the same time.

Both were solid. Both had their own unique talents they brought to the table.

Instead of using both, you know what coach did? He stuck with one. Maybe he knows something about getting into a rhythm with a QB? Maybe he knows a thing or two on the toll having multiple QBs takes on the rest of the team?

So why on earth does Rutgers think they're some kind of offensive masterminds with the swapping around? Never mind the QBs on our roster don't have even a small fraction of the talent like Hurts and Tua.

Are we that arrogant and asinine?

I think it’s a little different when you have 2 above average nfl level qbs vs pop Warner level

If we had a qb playing at Tua level we would stick with him even if Dan Marino was our backup

What if one was wearing a boot and one was throwing passes with a hand injury? So #3 was the only healthy scholarship QB

Tua would never have learned to play the position at RU because he wouldn't have gotten any real coaching.

Spurrier at UF is the last one I can remember doing the qb switching with such regularity.

This is what everyone is losing sight of…and play calling doesn’t help to play to playmaker strengths to help out the qb.

Spurrier's QBs were better. And he knew how to coach the position.

And Mac Jones at third string lol

Was going to type, "Who was the 3rd stringer?". I'd assume probably someone else who made the NFL

Probably. But how many teams can say that? 3? 4?

I go back about 15 years to a cold, snowy Friday night at West Point when Teel tried to play with an injured thumb. After 2 1st quarter interceptions Schiano pulled him and had Jabu run the Wildcat the rest of the night. Unfortunately Rutgers wasn't playing a mediocre Army team last night.

When we have two future NFL talents I'll get back too. In the meantime a sensationally stupid thread

Yeah maybe, but he chose the wrong guy. That is being flushed out now in the NFL. Just to remind people that even top level coaches make the wrong decisions at times. It’s not a science, more of an art.

 

[Plum Street]

Forget about doing what saban does , just hire the guy . #Hire saban now !!
get it done hobbs

Bingo
And we have neither. Not even close.

 

[mdk01]

. Any other program that is top tier has multiple 4 and 5 star QBs. If you can’t handle the heat then get out of the kitchen.

Surely you jest

Wimsatt needs the keys and just let him go. He’s got the most upside and if he stays has multiple years

With a walking boot?

Once healthy. The other two are known commodities at this time.

It's not yet clear that Tua was the wrong guy. The Dolphins were a offensive coaching shitshow until this season. And Tua did win them a National Championship after Saban benched Hurts.

 

[ashokan]

Tua is injury prone and wont last
He's one of those RG3 type players who has a knack for the awkward hits
I dont think I ever saw an NFL QB ragdolled before
