I am very excited about our new qb commit, Cooper Bateman. Just curious for anyone in the know.. how good is he? And was he the staffs top rated qb?

I would say he is pretty good and no I don't believe he was our top rated QB.

I think Max Browne was a long shot...and Chistian Hackenburg and Cooper Bateman were probably 1a. 1b. on the list...he didnt have to throw for Saban to commit and that itself speaks volumes

Who we rated the highest and who we had a genuine chance of landing are two different things. I think Cooper was probably 3 or 4 on our wish list, but number 1 on our commit list. I think the UGA commit was also higher in our staff's mind. I think we take Cooper and be happy. He wants to be here and he seems plenty enough talented to handle the job.

Bateman's commit takes ton of pressure off of UA...can now go into summer camps and take time to look for a quality #2 guy there
Gerry_Hamilton ‏@GerryH247sports
Really liked the feet, compact delivery & all around ability of QB Cooper Bateman in person. Very good pickup for Alabama. #247Sports

Well I am not an expert but I love his film. His delivery is outstanding and he has a huge arm. Also looks very athletic. Feet look just OK and he probably telegraphs his balls a little too much but he looks to have a TON of upside.
I like him a lot more than Ramesy or Hackenburg. HUGE PICKUP because we needed a QB badly after the Sim's decision.

Not only has Coop got a good arm, by looking at his game film, he's got a good set of wheels.

No good. We continue to struggle under Saban to sign a top rated QB. VBG. LOL. saracasm added.

He is a very good QB. Looks like he will have to work on being under center, as it seems his HS works out of the Shotgun 99% of the time.
Huge arm, nice touch and delivery. Will be a very good player.

I really don't care if he was our top pick or not. He is who we have and I am very proud to have the young man. He has tons of upside and I wish him all the best is his time at Alabama. RTR

hasn't lost a game in which he was the starter since 4th grade.
blatant no call on PI in the end zone in that sole loss.
last measure at 9' 12''
mythbusters and SportScience guys confirm he is indeed bullet proof.

I love his film. I know he is playing against bad competition but he is super accurate, has a huge arm, and is mobile. I thought it was funny that TOotherS (you know which site im talking about, the worst one in existence) had as his pros that he had a strong arm and was accurate but his cons were that we was not mobile. My question here is did they actually watch his film. Im not saying hes Vick or anything but he is extremely mobile and seems pretty athletic. The site which I speak of is pathetic and let me state that the only reason I got on there was because they always have a load of pictures of the recruits.
