Tepper + Young

[SaltAndPepper]

Does anyone know why DT was so infatuated with Young? Why he liked him over stroud? Its obvious he preferred him but i’m not sure why…

Held his fork properly and ordered filet mignon at the dinner.

Guys like Tepper are spread sheet warriors, buying companies on PE ratios, earnings, EBITDA, etc, he uses his analysis more than his "gut"

 

His analysis with that dumb S2 report showed Young as an "elite" player

If you would use your eyes and just watched Young dice up Georgia, you knew he was pro ready. 

Alabama SEVERELY masked Bryce Young, they didn't win because of him, they won WITH him, put Young at UCLA or Duke and he doesn't elevate either program.

He was able to disect a play over 15 minutes at dinner, about 14:58 longer than on the NFL field.

He's a square and quiet.

Tepper wants a certain image and Bryce fits it.

I think Tepper thought the S2 test was some kind of QB evaluation cheat tool and he convinced himself that QB was such a cerebral position that actual physical talent took a distant backseat to mental ability. Unfortunately, there are physical prerequisites. There are plenty of guys who weren't very good QBs as players who have become very good coaches. It wasn't a lack of mental ability, they didn't have the physical ability.

Alabama better this year without Young. Actually he was one of the worst from a win/loss title perspective of all Saban's qbs.

the better and bigger question is why does it matter what someone with zero football experience ‘prefers’?

the problem with Tepper isn’t what he prefers it’s that is that he thinks he matters and his opinion has value despite absolutely zero knowledge or experience

Saban is a top 2 or 3 all time college coach. The guy knows how to get players ready to win college football games.  QB in the NFL is a completely different animal.

Complete opposite of Cam Newton. He was flashy with a funky hairstyle. Young is a choir boy, polite, and not loud.

Unfortunately, that's not enough to play and win in the NFL
