Yup. In two college seasons he's only started what...3 games? He got a smattering of some series his freshman year, but not nearly enough to say he's played a full season if you put 2021 and 2022 together. He's got maybe half a season of game experience.
Is that you Gil Brandt?
Maybe. Maybe not. I really don't know but I do know there isn't a chance in hell he's a two time champ anywhere outside of Athens. He's not that guy and he didn't to need be with that team. Maybe Buchner doesn't have to be at bama either.
SB is a guy that I just can't quite peg, but I am inclined to agree with you just based on how good these UGA teams have been the last few years. They are as good if not better with Young or Stroud as QB1.
Stetson Bennett was a very, very good college QB who ran Monken's offense perfectly. Was also clocked throwing the ball with a higher velocity than Anthony Richardson at the combine.
I believe he's a talented college quarterback who benefited from playing on an elite team that showcased his skills exceptionally well. If he was under center in South Bend last year, it's highly likely that he would be taking snaps for the Sun Devils right now if he had eligiblity, rather than being referred to as a very very good college quarterback by people on this forum or anywhere else.
And a chest like Blake Barnett (or was it Gunner?)
That was Les Miles speaking to Gunner
It looks like they started practice today. With us playing week 0, we started way early.
Alabama’s first game isn’t until 9/2……..against the mighty MTSU Blue Raiders.
I’m pretty sure Rees and Buchner both had to learn Saban’s offense.
Well, I recently read an article where Saban said TB was still getting comfortable with the system and the terminology. I’m sure Rees probably brought some wrinkles but Saban wasn’t looking to overhaul the offense like when he brought in Kiffen. I think Saban tries to keep the same offensive and defensive schemes because of the constant coaching turnover.
The only similarities between Drew Pyne and Stetson Bennett are that they're both under 6'0. That's where they start and end. If Bennett were NDs QB in 2022 we go 11-1.
Bama started camp today, but Saban is usually very tight with info and especially video. Basically, the press gets to watch warmups and a few drills, then they get sent away. Saban typically doesn't want the press making too much info public or letting the cat out of the bag as to who's starting at certain positions, and etc.
