Sit out a year or not? See ncaa rules, etc. posted in Gape Peppenger thread.

This is FBS to FCS though so he can go immediately. Has 4 years left. I like this pick up!

Yep... 4 to play 4

Good point. What was I thinking? Answer: I wasn't. Thanks.

No worries! You meant well! I had to think twice anout it too
 
Blurb from Alabama pre-season article. Note his size listed in that article.

"Wheeler Harris (Fr.) Harris is an intriguing walk-on prospect. On paper, he has the look: He’s big (6’3” 220) and is a strong-armed pocket passer from Arizona’s wide open high school systems. He definitely needs to work on his accuracy and reeds, so making a roster may be tough. But I’m interested in seeing how far he moves up the depth chart, or if he does so, over the next few years and whether he earns a scholarship."

What isn't he listed on the 2017 Ala. football roster?

I was hoping we were getting this guy. Liked his name. Seemed like a natural.

He throws the deep ball up for grabs just like Jensen did, so that crowd should be happy.
Don’t agree that Jensen did that but this guy definitely does. Just looking at his highlights I am not very impressed with his deep ball but that’s pretty much all his highlight tape shows, at least the one I watched on Facebook. Receivers constantly have to stop or turn around to get the ball. I would much rather have Jensen back.

Jensen didn't want to stay and compete for a spot, this kid does, so I’ll take him.

Oh C'mon already. Let it go. I'm not certain how you know this kid wants to stay and compete when he isn't even here yet.
 
Watched his hudl, strong arm and he sets his feet well I would picked this guy over Jensen. He’s bigger, more physical and has comparable arm strength. Good pick up three qbs, 4 counting Graves, who desire to play for the griz. That’s just like my opinion man.

I’m over Jensen, best wishes for him, but the constant “I want Jensen back” crowd needs to let it go. This kid knows what he’s coming into, just like Humphrey, so yeah, as of know, they are willing to come and compete for a spot. I’ll take a team full of guys willing to compete for a spot.
 
I can agree with Intuitive.

I was a big fan of Jensen's and completely believed in his potential for future greatness, but I am agreeing with Intuitive and saying that I saw his arm strength and several examples of where he threw it up for grabs.

Didn’t say I wanted him back or that he would come back. I know that he’s gone. I just think he’s a better QB than this one and would rather he stayed. At least from what little I have seen. Hopefully I am wrong. All you old bastards overreact too much lol

I count 5 qbs:
Dalton Sneed
Cam Humphrey
Tanner Wilson
Wheeler Harris
Garrett Graves
