'22 TN QB Ty Simpson (Alabama commit)

[butchna]

Selective memory… they have what? Three nfl starters now? 4?? You all are bending the truth big time to fit your narrative

I didn’t get that as the point of his post. Barnett was selected (at least initially) over one of your referenced starters. And that one started over the one in Miami who’s now struggling and he started over the lowest ranked one who set the records and might end up the best. Saban has got some wrong before he got em right. It’s how you end up. Like Heupel with Milton and Hooker.

Today per AP “Tennessee has not talked to the Simpsons.”

Good. Don’t need him

 

[LittleVol]

Because Ty is nowhere close to the athlete or QB that Tayven is. That is why. If you compare any footage you would know that.

We should take both if we can.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

This is false.

wrong

The highest division in UGA HS. And Bailey finished his career as one of UGA HS all time best passers. Are you serious??

Tire of posters talking about Simpsons lower level of competition when some of the same posters yak about Baileys level of competition means nothing.

Just Don't get it do you.

 

[T2P_Priceless]

Sounds like the Richesson kid is tearing it up. I’d like to add him as a 2d QB

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

We are talking about recruiting QBs.. please pay attention

Saban recruited JG

Interesting quotation from AP on the pod.

"The tide has turned."

I think he's speaking of general recruiting sentiment. He's right.

But he's also right if you are reading more into it.

By all means provide the context that shows any positive momentum with Simpson and the Vols.

Would seem to go against...collegiate offers...scout evals/rankings...elite 11 performances, etc, no? Just sayin. Unless we are better evaluators than college staffs, that's a tough one to believe, no matter the chance he obviously has at becoming the better QB in the end.

2? Tua and Mac, right? Both very yound and may not may even be around in 5 years.

But is it really "evaluation" when you're certain to land a set of 5/4*s every year at QB? Seems like good odds as much as anything. They also look really good due to the absurd talent around them, therefore get drafted high. Who's the last Bama QB to last 10 years...make a pro bowl, or something like that?

?!! Lmao I was 14 when I finished freshman year of HS

Parents do this to athletes to get a advantage.

He had college talent around him he was just swing passing it to future SEC players.

 

[rocytop2624]

I believe Quinten Dormady came down to Tennessee and Alabama too. Chose Tennessee, but he was also a bust.

Just Don't get it do you.

I’m waiting for some proof to support the entire thread

We should take both if we can.

Ty has committed to another school. Get over it.

Is Austin Price AV? Good grief, could he be anymore vague?

I’m not arguing with anyone that says alabama doesn’t know how to recruit.. I can’t talk brain cells into anybody’s head

Who said Bama doesn't know how to recruit? Several of us have said their track records with QBs is not as good as with other positions, but given that Saban is a defensive guy, and rarely keeps an offensive guy for any length of time, that shouldn't surprise anyone. He gets the highest ranked guys he can. Odds are at least one will work out. Doesn't make him a QB guru.

To defend AP a little here, that's really taken out of context and wasn't even a response to a question about Ty Simpson. He was asked about the overall sentiment for the Vols on the recruiting trail and said the tide has turned and then went on to talk about how they're getting positive momentum because they're able to show what they can actually do on the field at Tennessee and not just talk about plans and previous stops.

The "Tide has turned" statement wasn't even about Ty Simpson.
