Itās easy to let a naysayer know when youāre trying to tell them what they want to hear.
Jalen Milroeās legacy at Alabama is centered around misplaced expectations. The LANK slogan the quarterback coined is a product of doubters who wrote him and the Crimson Tide off too early following a loss to Texas during the 2023 season. However, those extrapolations were equally as premature as the elite status heaped on him following a 374-yard passing performance against Georgia this past September.
Milroe now serves as the scapegoat for Alabamaās failed 2024 season, but the criticism heās currently facing doesnāt stem from a fan base that was rooting for him to fail. If anything, the quarterbackās fall from grace is amplified due to a pedestal his play never warranted.
