Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback Jalen Milroe may be getting the hang of head coach Kalen DeBoer\u2019s new offense.<\/p>\n
DeBoer, who helped to lead former Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr. to a Heisman finalist season in 2023, is known as a quarterback whisperer, and he seems to have already made improvements to Milroe\u2019s game. On Sunday, DeBoer spoke incredibly highly of the progress his QB has made, telling reporters that Milroe \u201chas taken the best steps I\u2019ve seen since I\u2019ve been here\u201d over the previous two practices for the Crimson Tide.<\/p>\n
\u201cReally, the way he\u2019s intentional about coming out. You know, even not what you say but how you do things, what your body language is. He gets that, that\u2019s important, but he\u2019s actually just really just leading that way and then it leads to him playing well and the other guys following suit,\u201d DeBoer said. \u201cToday, he came out again, really he threw the deep ball probably as well as I\u2019ve seen him throw. That\u2019s a lot of guys and the timing, his rhythm and all of that coming into play. He\u2019s getting more comfortable\u2026 He\u2019s done a nice job raising his game and asking more from himself.\u201d<\/p>\n
If Milroe, who seemed to improve in every game of the 2023 regular season, is truly able to take the next step as a quarterback in DeBoer\u2019s offense, it could be a scary prospect for the rest of college football.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
