Is the QB battle over at Bama? He looked awful the first few drives, but did OK at the end. Seems like everyone is assuming a transfer is a done deal.

Looked awful during winning time, looked ok during garbage time. This battle is a done deal.

I'm not. Just stacking data to feed the trend.

No I don't think the battle is over. I think him and Hurst will continue to share reps the next few weeks.

You're probably right, but Hurts showed an amazing amount of leadership for a freshman, and obviously delivered when the lights were still shining brightest.

I don't see a scenario where Hurts sits outside of injury, at best Blake will have to settle for sharing snaps.

Bad decision. I understand him wanting to transfer, but why now? He can't play anywhere else this season, he can stay at Bama the rest of the year and see some playing time and get in some practice, and Hurts could get injured, making Barnett the starter.

Where does he go, UCLA?

Transfer back to Cali, sit behind Rosen for 1 year, and then take over.

Jhop has been working on this decommitment for three years and it looks like it will finally pay off

Where does he end up?

My guesses are Cal or Washington with LSU and UCLA as other possible options.

ETA: damn, how did I forget Oregon, they have to be in the top group.

Do you think big programs will even be an option for him? He's quitting on his team in the first third of the season. The optics are atrocious. Who wants to invest a long-term commitment to developing someone who just left his team high and dry like this?

I believe the entire offense could transfer and bama could fill those spots with back-ups, red-shirts, and grey-shirts......... don't think he's leaving them 'high and dry'......

Won't be LSU or Ole Miss. Saban won't release him to go to a school on our schedule. SOP.

Yea, QB for hire is beicoming insanely popular. Its like free agency to some degree. Some teams, like Oregon for example, have invested very little time in trying to develop QB's of their own. I could easily see him there. I posted UCLA as he's getting married and he could move back home. But Oregon would be 1b, on my list.

If I'm a QB recruit I don't go to Oregon. They can't guarantee me anything. If I go there and I'm in line to get the starting job...not so fast my friend.
