    Shown the servants door? I'll get to that in a second.

    I'll readily agree with anyone who suggests a coach tells a player that they are behind another on the depth chart and if they are seeking playing time they'll be granted a transfer. I saw a chart recently where 14 of the top 20 quarterbacks out of the 2010 rankings had transferred.

    You're examples here? Star, third on the depth chart behind McElroy and McCarron when he transferred. Sims, second on the depth chart behind McCarron. Ely, third on the depth chart in 2012, 4th after spring camp in 2013.

    But, shown the servants door?

    You're racial overtones are unfounded, unwarranted, and myopic.

    Which leads to this question.

    Who can anyone point to that has a highly successful rate on developing quarterbacks in the SEC. For every good one you find on a team, you're going to find one that's transferred—probably more than just the one.

    Proves nothing.

    Gives credence to bigotry suppositions about you.

    (Sims, using one of your examples, was given every opportunity to take the starting job against Penn State, Kent, and North Texas and by the fourth game of the season he was beaten out for the starting job by McCarron.)





    "For every good one you'll find on a team, you're going to find one that's transferred...probably more than one."

    Tanner McEvoy, Reid McCollum, Tommy Beecher, Chris Smelley, Aramis Hillary, Andrew Clifford...

    Versus how many good ones has he had at UofSC?

    Uh, Tap, I'll ask you to clarify that statement. Rohan Davey started most of the 2001 season. Marcus Randle started 7 games in 2002. Randle or Jamarcus Russell took virtually every snap of 2004.

    Has Spurrier ever had a black QB he's gone with?

    Only one I can think of with Richt is Shockley and I don't believe he started every game his final season after David Green left. (MCL maybe?)

    Fulmer- Tee Martin one season. Petrino? Brooks?

    Ron Zook—class of 2003. Spurrier was still in Washington.

    BOT: After looking at his film, I see a good QB, don't know about the offers, or lack of. But I like what I see. Like I said, I'll trust Cam.

    Good lord.

    Let's look at this, shall we?

    Your assertion being "in 11 SEC seasons Saban has started 1 black QB in four games" and I whiffed?

    My supposition of bigotry was confirmed, but I whiffed?

    And then, when I offer the thought that you have as many transfers of QB's, or more, for every one that may be developed you suggest Spurrier as a rebuttal only to be answered with six examples covering his first few years in Cola, I whiff?

    Your obstinance is one thing that can be explained by fandom. Being obtuse fails definition.
