Alabama football’s offensive coordinator, Ryan Grubb feels there are some similarities between the Tide’s current quarterback battle and the battle the Washington Huskies had at the position in 2022.
Ty Simpson, Keelon Russell and Austin Mack are involved in a three-way quarterback battle in Tuscaloosa. Grubb feels this battle stacks up to the battle Washington had with Michael Penix, Dylan Morris and Sam Huard competing to be the starting signal caller.
The experience Grubb and the Tide’s quarterback coach Nick Sheridan, who was also on Washington’s staff in 2022, gained during the battle gave them confidence ahead of the current competition in Tuscaloosa.
