Breaking News: Controversies Erupts As Another Alabama Legend Comes Out To Clarify The Coaching Saga.

another Alabama legend provides clarification regarding the new coach saga…

AJ McCarron, one of the most decorated quarterbacks in Alabama history, was not able to see Saturday’s Crimson Tide spring game.

As much excitement as there is around A-Day this year, his focus was on getting ready for the St. Louis Battlehawks’ Sunday game against the San Antonio Brahmas in particular.

With Saturday’s spring game, Nick Saban left Alabama’s football program and was replaced as head coach by Kalen DeBoer. After serving in the role for 17 seasons, Saban announced his resignation in January. Alabama hired Washington native DeBoer to take over for Saban.

Following the Battlehawks’ 31-24 victory over the Brahmas in a United Football League match, McCarron was questioned regarding the changes at his former school.

McCarron declared, “I think it’s a great hire for Alabama.” “I hope for the best for coach DeBoer. Although it’s never easy to follow in coach Saban’s footsteps, the most important thing is to constantly be himself. Try not to emulate Coach Saban. He is aware of what the fans and the people of Alabama expect, just as I am. Just be oneself, enjoy yourself.

They will still have the ability to prevail. They will continue to attract the best candidates. Watching this new phase of Alabama football excites me.

McCarron, a five-year standout at St. Paul’s Episcopal in Mobile, was under head coach Nick Saban at Alabama. McCarron was the starting quarterback in 2011, 2012, and 2013 following a redshirt year in 2009 during which the Crimson Tide won the BCS national championship and a backup season in 2010.

In 2011 and 2012, Alabama emerged victorious in the BCS national championship.

2013 saw McCarron win the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award as the finest upperclassman quarterback in the country as well as the Maxwell Award as the greatest college football player. In addition to being named first team All-American by the Walter Camp Football Foundation and the American Football Coaches Association, he placed second in the Heisman Trophy voting.

McCarron also established career and single-season records for passing yards and total offense yards in 2013. After breaking the Alabama single-season record in 2012, he went on to lead the Crimson Tide in touchdown passes during his career in 2013. McCarron continues to hold the school record for both career throwing yards and total offense yards.
