Good point. Saban wasn't after him that's for sureQuote:

Milroe as a sophomore...
5th nationally in passer rating
13th in QBR
Will hasn't come anywhere close to this level.
If Milroe hits the market, we should break the bank to try and pull him
Doesn't necessarily mean anything much. Saban ain't the best QB evaluator out there.Quote:

And if those WRs like Milroe, they may bolt tooQuote:

I think the whole Rogers thing is fascinating.
I appreciate will for what he did for us. That being said, he's not some uber talented football player. He definitely has his limitations. If you stick him behind an excellent line, with superstars all over the field, he will be able to beat most teams. I think he could be successful at Bama this year if that's where he ends up.
If DeBoer is dumb enough to run off Millroe, I sure hope we get him. He would be fantastic in this offense.

The point is, the QB experts here said he was a D2 or WKU QB. All while winning and breaking records for their own school.Quote:

He definitely wouldn't have started over Shapen. And I'm not sure he would have even been the 2nd team QB by mid season. He left because he knew Lebby was going to upgrade.Quote:

Lol... ole Bucky. I hope Will makes a USFL/XFL roster so he'll still have something to defend.
I hope we get weekly updates and "all time rankings" too.
Actually he proved me wrong in '21. I bragged about Will after the AU comeback and thought he might become the best QB in the SEC. Then ... something changed, not sure what. Now ... if he plays like that again, maybe he could be a Tua. But right now I don't see him beating out Milroe. If so, we'll see how he does. Maybe he'll prove me wrong twice haha. I know this much ... Will REALLY hates to get hit. Milroe is like Daniels ... he tough.Quote:

One of the best OCs in the country and a HC with a record of 104-12 want him but you guys dont. I can live with that
I guess the "how good is Will Rogers" argument will be put to bed this fall. We'll all see if he can make it big away from a CML offense.
This is true.Quote:

And I've rewound the DVR a lot studying on it when it happened too. A quick glance to one side of the field and then dump it off. And he also better get his very precise accuracy back too, regardless of his completion percentage. In 2022 he spun backs around several times on the dump off and the shorter slants and meshes weren't in stride like they should've been quite often either. Being very precise in accuracy is what made him so good in '21.
Agree. If he plays like '21 I could see him being similar to Tua maybe. The question is ... does that beat out Milroe.Quote:

Taking will seems like a good way to lose one of Milroe and sayin
I was just thinking is Will to Bama is a done deal yet. It ain't on 247 yet if it is.
Agree. I hope he does well, regardless of where he's at.....unless it's ole miss. Then I'd hate him. LolQuote:

Bro I don't see Bama taking Rogers having any effect whatsoever on Milroe. It would be like us bringing in Chance Lovertich, who never had a chance to start here. He wouldn't be 3rd string by mid season at Bama.Quote:

If I were him it would be WKU. He would kill it there. There's no shame at all in playing at a place like that and putting up big numbers.Quote:

Makes sense. He might even get a backup job in the NFL or CFL from WKU.Quote:

I don't know if DeBoar wants Will over Milroe but if he does it will be because Will is their guy.
