Youth At QB Not An Advantage

If a tree falls in a forest and there’s no one there to hear it, does it make a sound? Yeah, one of those questions. College football fans have long discussed the question of whether two quarterbacks are equal, do you play the youngest one since he can be the guy long-term.

Alabama Coach Nick Saban got that question Sunday as the Crimson Tide continued preseason camp in search of a starting quarterback. Almost everyone thinks that senior Jacob Coker is in competition with a young guy, perhaps even redshirt freshman David Cornwell.
