If I could take 3 QBs for an All-Time Alabama team:
AJ McCarron
Tua Tagovailoa
Mac Jones
............and Richard Todd would be my 4th
.
Correct me.
Keep in mind - Namath only had 374 career attempts.
-
1 Tua
2 Joe Namath
3 Mack Jones
4 Ken Stabler
-
So what % of it is name recognition alone? I do want this to appeal to a wide audience of each team's fans, but Stabler had 300 career attempts and regressed badly his SR year.
-
SDS had it this way.

I'm doing it by decade. 1990s Alabama All-Star Team:
QB - Jay Barker and.......Andrew Zow?? Kitchens? LOL
RB - Alexander, Riddle, Sherman Williams, Lassic (S.Stacy will go on 80s team)
WR/TE - Palmer, Curtis Brown, Malone, Vaughn,......need a TE.....Patrick Hape? Yeesh.
Sacks: obviously Curry & Copeland....Mike Myers, Robert Stewart?
INTs.....tbd

2010s Alabama All-Star Team:
QB: umm, the top 4 TD passers in Bama history played in this decade. McCarron has a wide volume gap over Mac Jones.
Tagovailoa and McCarron
RBs: Henry, N.Harris, Yeldon.....D.Harris over Richardson? I'm not sure about that last one. Does Lacy even get consideration? Too many good ones.
WR/TE: Smith, obviously. Cooper. Ridley, Jeudy, Waddle. Need a TE, and Howard will do perfectly.
-
Julio Jones and Mark Ingram both played in 2010. Both would rank one or two at their positions.
-
Right, but if most of their production was pre-2010, they'd be on the previous-decade's team. Or I'm doing from 01-10, idk.
.
My biggest thing about this team is Richardson - he was an absolute beast, but he's downgraded in people's minds because he fizzled out in the NFL. I really hate that people aren't better at compartmentalizing this stuff in their heads.

Alabama 2000s All-Star Team
QB - McElroy and Wilson/Croyle.....either works.
RB - Ingram, Darby, Shaud Williams?, Coffee?..........for as strong as the 2010s RBs are, these aren't great
WR/TE - Julio, DJ Hall, Keith Brown, Maze, Hanks (or Milons, if he's not on the 90s team)......TE from the 2000s??? Nick Walker?
-
for 2010s, i'll take:
in order, assuming most current offensive scheme
qb - mac, tua
rb - najee, henry, jacobs, trent, yeldon, d harris
wr - smitty, cooper, juedy, waddle, ridley, ruggs
te - howard, irv smith
you want oline and d?

agree, trent gets a bad rep for his nfl stint. dude still has one of the most beast-mode runs in cfb i've ever seen. that stutter at the end was amazing.
