Yeah. This year’s QB crop is lacking, so it would be a good year for him to come out. However, if he truly cares about development and actually having a chance to succeed, he would stay at Bama for another year. 

Alabama has proven to be an exceedingly poor place to develop as a QB. It's a good place to get INTO the NFL but not succeed.

If he wants to develop, the NFL or a better college program(specifically for QB development, not college success) would be the best path.

It's very hard to develop in college football unless you are super self motivated. It's a crazy tax on your time with school included.

If I’m not mistaken, ACC champion is an auto bid

nope I was wrong so it could happen

Top five ranked conference champions. This includes G5.

James Madison would likely be ranked higher as a conference champion so if Duke wins most likely no ACC team gets in unless the committee decides to slide Miami above ND based on head to head.

James Madison would be behind either North Texas or Tulane.

Miami has what....one appearance in 21 years and got smoked by 35. Then come in and blame the conference. That's beyond pathetic.

Same poo FSU tried to pull while getting a historic beating and then promptly going 7-17 overall and 3-13 in the ACC since.

I for one am glad to see all the "WE ARE THE REAL POWER" ACC crybabies get their just desserts. That includes Clemson, who got a little chirpy about leaving the conference too.

Miami had the same rules as all the teams they claim to be better than. No one forced them to lose to Louisville or SMU. No one forced them to struggle against FSU either.

Only thing I have seen/heard fron guys like Ellis, council, person and Kaye lately is to let things "play out" with the last 5ish games.   Plenty of time to discuss Bryce in the off season.   

 

As if the last 5 games will change anyone's mind.  

Well there is some pragmatism attached to that viewpoint. Dalton(who I would still rather see) isn't truly an upgrade and it's a little late in the game with options being almost nil to be digging in the unsigned FA scrap heap. 

Were it mu decision, I'd probably just sign Heinicke and at least try to get a middling backup up to speed for a game or two.

Would always love to be a place where a player finds himself. Always felt like his floor could be ST captain if he wanted it. 

Special Teams is an area where he could actually make a career, if he focuses on doing that well.

Also, for the record, I don’t know why Simmons hasn’t stuck around any of his stops.  I know he’s considered a jack of all trades and master of none.  But going back to his time with Arizona, one of the first games I watched him in, he stuck a ball carrier in OT I believe, against the Raiders, caused a fumble that was returned for a TD.  If you look at his stats, they aren’t mind-blowing, but they’re impressive for a guy who has played several different positions in the league.  He seems to always have made plays that win his team’s games.  My hope is, maybe being forced to sign him, that maybe we just found another Hasson Reddick-type of deal.

I do. He isn't good at really anything but being an athlete.

He will never in his lifetime be Hasson Reddick.

How is 10-2 'crapping your pants'?

Alabama lost to FSU ffs. 

Are you unfamiliar with how conference schedules work? Is Alabama an ACC team I am unaware of?

Virginia would get murdered in the Playoffs. Duke obviously wouldn't be allowed in the Playoffs.

Lol. You know Miami would also get murdered in the playoffs, right?

The tie breaker is Conference opponent winning %.

So Duke actually losing to Virginia and GT helped their own case.

Moronic Conference.

For all the people claiming to have knowledge of their conferences, it's shocking how little you guys know about your conference(or any conferences) tie breaking procedures.

Ya'll know these things are literally on every conferences website in black and white, right?

He played really well after the FSU loss. He balled against Georgia, Vandy, Tennessee, and LSU. However, he has regressed over the course of the season. It seems to like teams finally have tape on him, and Bama’s offense under Ryan Grubb in general, and are scheming to affect it. 

I think he needs to stay at Bama for another year. He has some development that needs to happen. I’d be interested to see how he responds next year to the changes teams have made to him based on his tape. 

If I was him, I would leave. His stock is never going to get higher.

He is not a special prospect at all and this is a very bad QB draft for elite talent. 

If they have you projected as a top 10-15 guy, leave.

Yeah but Sirianni is more of a dufus. I think Johnson is ridiculously arrogant and not in the good way. Have you seen his post game speeches where he acts like Nic Cage in gone in 60 seconds? He is super cringe. With the way he acts, if they were 3-9 instead of 9-3, he’d be fired by now.

Sirianni had some insanely cringey post game interactions his first 2-3 seasons. It was insane stuff. I would say nothing Johnson has done so far would make a top 5 Sirianni moment.

Johnson does give some Lane Kiffin vibes, though. I will give you that.

The tie breaker is points scored? That's NUTS Duke gets in over Miami, or Tech, or SMU, or Pitt.

LMAO. WTF are you talking about? That's not any of the tie breaking criteria.

Just now, Dilla said:

Reporters are already talking about the committee saying 'fug the rules' and putting Miami in if Duke wins.

 

I mean, honestly, I would not be surprised if they consider it.

That would cause a revolt. 

It's just reverting back to the original BCS or newspaper rankings.

Also, blame the ACC all you want but they didn't cause Miami, GT and SMU to crap their pants.

What a total disaster for the ACC lol.  Duke vs Virginia.  Brutal.

It's only an actual disaster if Duke wins. North Texas or Tulane aren't gonna jump UVa in the rankings.

Two of their last three plays have resulted in offensive flags.

Redshirt freshman kicker, though? IDK....not what I would have done.

Just now, LinvilleGorge said:

They get back in range and the refs throw a flag on a blatant chop block but they get a call from the ACC league office and pick it up. The only explanation for picking up that flag. It was very obviously a chop block. They're gonna have a shot at a 51 yarder. Hope they miss it simply because they shouldn't have a chance to attempt it.

I didn't think it was actually a chop block. He went down because he tripped.

Honestly, why not try to get this MFer like 5-6 more yards?

Those announcers were high. They didn't realize their camera view wasn't straight down the goal line. The guy was in.

Man, this SMU/Cal game is nuts.

I've been watching since half. He doesn't look like a terrible prospect. Decent athlete, marginal size, quick release, good short to mid accuracy, arm looks NFL average.

Oh... he's being talked about as a high first round pick? LOL! GTFOH... this is Kirk Cousins. Mid-round developmental pick who will probably be a backup? Sure, why not? First round? I'd rather just throw a dart at the draft board.

Bro, I have seen mocks with him anywhere between 12 to 1.

I don't get it. He is a day 2 pick to me.
