Y'all realize that, barring injury, John Parker Wilson will break every significant passing record at Alabama this season?
Does that surprise you?
I'd suspect it would be a surprise for a quarterback who, at least to me, has been unappreciated for much of his Tide career. And now he's been named to the Unitas Golden Arm Award watch list, which is made up of 25 of the top senior QBs in the country.
But, just in case you're wondering, JPW needs 732 passing yards and five TD passes to eclipse Brodie Croyle's school record.

No doubt he will eclipse those records the one I'm afraid of is the interception record.

I could not agree with you more Stoney that is what I was thinking as well.

How does he stack up against Stabler and Joe Namath?

[Stoney]

Not even close... JPW will be lucky to get drafted.

He has got some great receivers to help matters for him, too. I hope he has his best season ever! If he is "on", WE are "on".

That is just simply not good enough, he needs to find a way to perform within his limits.

I have to agree with you on this one Stoney

[Stoney]

JPW has potential both good and bad. I want to see him mature and learn when to get rid of the ball or when to call an audible.

[crimsonlass]

He has got a ways to go, no doubt. I just hope he will pull it all together for us, and not be troubled by the distractions that reportedly dogged him last year....

[Stoney]

We have other QBs JPW knows if he stumbles that is it he's done.

[crimsonlass]

Oh yeah, we DO have other QB's and I am interested in what they can do, too. It is like having some extra weapons on the shelf!

[Stoney]

Fanuzzi isn't exactly chopped liver. JPW is watching over his shoulder.

[crimsonlass]

He needs the competition. It will inspire him to play better. The future is bright!

[Stoney]

We shall see...
