almost always started with a Jr winning the starting role, having a pretty solid season and going into summer and fall as the starter. But they never had an easy road.

You start the best player. Not someone because they are a senior.

Ty was the problem. He is no longer here. Whether the replacement is better, TBD

Ty contributed to the problem. So did Kalani and he is still at BYU

Starting a senior usually means you've setup a proper pipeline.

Absolutely. Agree entirely

Coogar2

Also - all the players you listed had good junior seasons. They maybe wouldn’t

Who did Bama start in game one?

Coogar2

Yep started the returning starter in game one and didn't wait

Detmers biggest mistake last year was this.

youngbuck

6/23/18 7:54pm

There wasn’t anyone else ready to start at QB last year

Which one of those senior QBs struggled as much as Mangum their Jr year?

Which one produced like Tanner as a frosh

Coogar2
