Will it be Jalen Milroe, who started one game last season as a redshirt freshman? Or Ty Simpson, the five-star recruit last year now in his second season? Or one of the two incoming freshmen, Eli Holstein or Dylan Lonergan?
Alabama opened spring practice Monday, holding the first of its 14 on-field sessions before its April 22 spring game. And for the first time since 2018, there is legitimate intrigue about who will become Alabama’s starting quarterback as it begins preparing for a new season.
“Look, I think everybody has an opportunity,” he said. “None of the guys have a significant amount of experience.” “I think Jalen played one game, half a game where he really had to play a game and he made a lot of plays,” Saban said. “He made plays in a different way than Bryce made plays.”“Ty, who made significant progress throughout the year but never really had much of an opportunity to play in critical situations in a game, is also someone that we think has developed and made a lot of improvement and has a lot of potential to be a pretty good player,” Saban said.
Alabama’s offense lost starting running back Jahmyr Gibbs, starting tight end Cameron Latu and two starting offensive linemen in Tyler Steen and Emil Ekiyor to the NFL draft. But it returns most of its top receivers from last season and two of its top running backs in Jase McClellan and Roydell Williams.
