I posted this but didn't see Bone's post on the subject earlier, sorry. (combine threads?)
So, it looks like Alabama may possibly play against a QB that was once committed to Alabama.
Joe Schad is reporting that Town is heading to Arkansas:
Excerpt of article:
"Town transferring to Arkansas
Former USC quarterback Ricky Town said Friday he is transferring to Arkansas.
"Coach (Bret) Bielema is a great person," Town told ESPN. "I want to be a person like him. This is the first time my family had been to Arkansas and it was great. We fell in love with the place."
Town said he fits into the offensive system at Arkansas.
"Great system," Town said. "They said the quarterback is like a coach on the field. Not just simple reads. There are a lot of protections and it's really a chess game. I want to be like a point guard on the field."
Ricky Town originally planned to play for USC, but decided the Trojans weren't the right fit for him offensively. Courtesy of Garry Paskwietz
Town said USC wasn't the right fit for him offensively and thus he left the school before his freshman season began. Town said he wants to be in a pro-style offense such as the one at Arkansas."
