did anyone catch all the alabama pregame where Saban talked about his is first game issues were caused by communication issues with rcvrs and oline people not talking well? they replaced several oline and struggled running game one and they didnt replace the qb and the whole staff..

We solved ours starting fourth possession ...
I thought Allen was getting the plays off much faster and smoother than the other games. I will leave all the decisions up to the staff as I am done thinking about this issue.

People just love a guy who looks like a prototypical QB and it takes great deal of truth to break their hold to that image. The difference between the FLOW of the offense between Allen and Hunt was undeniable - it was in fact glaring. Even vs NW, the 'communication issues' suddenly disappeared when Hunt came in. The mistakes Allen was making should have been beaten out of him over however many years of being a back-up for a big-time program - that they weren't tells you that they are very likely innate and not correctable over the time horizon at hand. It's too bad this guy didn't get his shot to develop...but we don't have the luxury of playing out a failed experiment. We need to win now and recruit hard.
