Around SBN: Two Minutes Of Thunder Basketball Wins The Game

The RBR Mailbag is Apparently Racist

Got this e-mail tonight:

Does anyone really think that Star Jackson has a realistic chance of being a full-time QB at Alabama? Alabama's top QB target for next year, A.J. McCarron of St. Paul's (Mobile AL) doesn't seem to think so. He recently made several comments to the Mobile Press Register about QB's who scramble having virtually no chance in Jim McElwain's offense. Sounds like to me that young A.J. is either afraid that he, himself won't have much of a future if Star Jackson signs and is given a fair shot to play QB, which incidentally has never happened at the Capstone. Remember Andrew Zow, the school's all-time passing leader being forced to rotate with Tyler Watts, who was average-to-below-average, at best. Or either A.J. is trying to teach Star about the real HISTORY & TRADITION at Alabama and help him not waste 4-5 years of his life. Oh, well, we all have to live with the decisions that we make....and Star will get a lesson in history soon enough.

Personally, I think it sounds like the ignorant musings of a jackass Auburn fan trying to stir something up, but I thought you guys might like to discuss it.

Hmmm. Have to concur that it's a boog
Could be that the Boogs have 28 recruits and 22 of them are 3* or less (rivals), and that the Gulf is once again no longer fertile recruiting for anyone but the Sabanator.

Alleged article...
He does not even cite a source for this alleged article.  I have never read anything of the sort from A.J.  I hope whoever is the better player wins out.

Dont worry
Star will kick this guy right out of summer camp and you will never hear another word about this guy

Troll!
It did make me research a bit.  The Black Quarterback site is pretty in-depth and has lots of information.  I didn't remember Freddy Milons being a QB.

Frankly, we've been going on merit since the 70's--just like every other program.  And that's the damn way it should be.  I could care less if Star were white or black--as long as he can throw.  

Never quit. It is the easiest cop-out in the world.

He wasn't a QB...
...but he lined up at QB in some sets, mostly just to take a direct snap and run.  See the '99 SECCG versus Florida.
