    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.

    And I've never said the only place he could play is the WKU level. I stayed out of those conversations. But you acting like he gonna saunter in and take the job from Milroe at Bama without changing some of the negative traits I just mentioned is beyond ludicrous. 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.

    I'm having a hard time seeing bama take will. Why in the world would you give Milroe a reason to want to leave? Also sayin (#1 HS qb) wasn't recruited by this staff; they should be selling him on if milroe can't pick this offense up, he will get a shot. 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.

    Yeah, I'd be really surprised if Bama takes Will.

    Playing Will Rogers at Alabama equals the coach signing his death warrant? If any receiver stays at Alabama with WR, that receiver has killed any hope to play in the NFL. That receiver has signed his death warrant also for not getting out also?

    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.

    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.

    Maybe he just needs to skip his eligibility and enter the draft. Just get drafted and it's only a short time later he's setting NFL records.

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

    Our offense was a mess last year and it wasn't only because of Will. There were tons of miscommunication at all levels of the offense. That's on Barbay.

    I can tell them one thing right now- he won't be going back to Houston.

    QB's and head coaches and OC's are all tied at the hip now.

    If Leach were still alive Will would still be at MSU for example. If Kiffin left for somewhere he would probably take Dart with him.

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