Jalen Milroe found success last season in leading Alabama to the College Football Playoff, but he wants to reach a new level in 2024. The Crimson Tide quarterback has undergone a coaching change from Nick Saban to Kalen DeBoer, and is taking lessons from both heading into this year. Milroe threw for 2,834 yards, 23 touchdowns and six interceptions this past season in his first year as a starter while also rushing for 531 yards and 12 touchdowns. Speaking on Next Up with Adam Breneman he opened up on wanting to master the cerebral side of things in his second season as starter. “As a quarterbac...

Jalen Milroe is quarterbacking Alabama as they enter a new era, with Kalen DeBoer as their head coach following Nick Saban’s retirement earlier in 2024. It’s going to be a pivotal first season on the job for DeBoer, and a lot of Alabama’s dreams will be on Milroe’s shoulders. As the summer rages on, the freshly-minted Crimson Tide leader is doing everything he can to let his quarterback feel comfortable leading the charge in Tuscaloosa. “It’s been great. You know, everything’s a process. So you know, initially, with having him here, you know, whenever he got here, and then until now, it’s been...

It isn’t easy to find a more knowledgeable mentor than Nick Saban. In an interview with Adam Breneman, Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe revealed the greatest lesson he learned from the former Crimson Tide head coach. “As cliché as it is, trust the process. I think that’s the biggest thing that I took from Coach Saban,” Milroe said. “Everybody’s process is different. They might play their fifth year, fourth year, third year, sixth year— everybody’s process is different. It’s all about trusting in the program, as a whole. “Trust in yourself for whenever your opportunity presents itself, maximize...

Jalen Milroe has learned oodles during his three-plus years with Alabama football. Be it the ins and outs of a scheme, new ways to push his physical fitness to higher levels, or how to be a good teammate, Milroe has been keen to soak it all in. But that willingness to sit back and learn, to study and focus on improving at his own pace has been arguably the biggest lesson Milroe has learned, he said. He shared more on how he’s grown as a person and player since coming to Tuscaloosa in an interview with Adam Breneman. “I think the biggest thing was changing the perspective from the physical aspe...

It took a while until Jalen Milroe saw the field as the full-time quarterback for Alabama. But his two years as a backup were not put to waste. In an interview with Adam Breneman, Milroe explained how spending two seasons away from the field helped shape him into the quarterback he is now. From seeing the game differently to taking the time to improve his physical profile, it all played a role in Milroe catching on and eventually flourishing at quarterback down the stretch in 2023. “Honestly, I think the best thing for me wasn’t playing initially coming into college,” Milroe said. “Learning fr...

After Nick Saban retired from Alabama this offseason, quarterback Jalen Milroe had a massive decision to make. Enter the transfer portal or return and join new head coach Kalen DeBoer. Milroe chose the latter option and was one of the first Alabama players to endorse DeBoer, leading to a wave of other members of the Crimson Tide announcing their return. An opposing SEC assistant coach believes Milroe made the correct decision. “There’s so much change that it’s hard to know how to scout them right now. The biggest win is keeping [quarterback Jalen] Milroe around; that was a no-brainer for him a...

Nick Saban and Jalen Milroe certainly had their share of bumps in the road during the latter’s first season as the Alabama starting quarterback. But through it all, the duo were keenly aware their success in 2023 was dependent on growing and improving each week — they needed to stay the course. And all that growth culminated in what turned into Milroe’s favorite moment with the now-retired Saban, shortly after Milroe delivered a miraculous, last-second touchdown pass to give Alabama a win in the Iron Bowl over bitter rival Auburn. After the initial furor, Milroe wanted to seek out his head coa...

Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe had the perfect story to tell that illustrated the difference between Nick Saban and Kalen DeBoer. DeBoer took over for Saban following the latter’s retirement after 17 years in Tuscaloosa and has a massive legacy to follow. In doing so, he brings a different approach to the game. Saban was often know for his attention to detail and rigid style of coaching that followed a specific set of rules. DeBoer, who comes to the team after leading Washington to a national championship appearance, is a bit more loose. Milroe explained how in a recent podcast with Connor O...

The Alabama Crimson Tide are returning starting quarterback Jalen Milroe for the 2024 season where many consider that he could be a Heisman contender. Ahead of the season, On3’s Jesse Simonton made an appearance on Andy Staples On3. There, he broke down the case for Milroe as a Heisman contender, starting with the fact that he’s a dual-threat contender that could help him put up massive numbers. “You’re talking about a guy who could top 45 total touchdowns,” Jesse Simonton said. “Because Kalen DeBoer has proven at previous stops that if he has a guy at the quarterback position that has some wh...

New Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Kalen DeBoer inherited a talented quarterback in Jalen Milroe for his first season in Tuscaloosa. One of the most important things that Milroe brings is a leadership that DeBoer said on a recent appearance on Always College Football that you’re not going to question. It’s a trait that DeBoer made to praise amid the staff turnover. “So Jalen, with what he did at the end of the season is what’s really impressive,” Kalen DeBoer said. “And building on that, even though yes, new system, new verbiage, things like that, building on that experience, I think, and him...
