Tom Luginbill talks Alabama QBs & DeBoer taking risks. · Out of Bounds with Bo Bounds

  Speaker 1: How much risk is Kaitlin de Borr and Alabama taken
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: by kind of waiting on and rolling out Keelan Russell
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: and or Austin Mack, neither who had played. I know
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Austin has weighted, has bided his time, but still Bama
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: wants to win now and getting punked by Indiana is
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: not what they want, even though they got into the
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: second round of the College football playoffs. How much risk
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: is that for Kaylin to Borr in Alabama?
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Luke's I actually think it's minimal. And I say that
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: because I don't think it was a great transfer portal
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: quarterback class top to bottom. Okay, and you know when
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: you've got guys like Keilan Russell, who they've invested in
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: and developed and is really really talented, more talented than
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Austin Mack and a little bit more dynamic, I think.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: But Austin Mack too has been in that system, he's
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: been in that program. They know what they're going to
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: get out of him. I think you're weighing risk by saying, Okay,
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: do we go out and get an unknown who has
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: or has not played, especially if we're not in love
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: with anybody, But we got these two guys here that
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: we know an awful lot about that we think are
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: talented and can take the next step. I also think
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: that retooling the offensive line, getting new leadership from a
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: from a coaching perspective, that's going to play a big
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: role for Alabama too. They can't they can't do what
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: they did last year, where they go into every single
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: game and everybody in the stadium knows that they can't
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: run the football, right, that's just that. That's not now
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: when you have a guy like ty Simpson that could
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: that could compensate for that because he was really really good,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: and I would argue really really good considering that he
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: kind of had to do it all on his own,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: you know, that was kind of an eraser for them.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: But with limited experience, you may not necessarily have that.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: So the run game, I think is every bit as
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: pivotal to the development of those quarterbacks and how fast
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: they come along is anything else.
