Ty Simpson

Ty Simpson hasn't earned the starting job in previous attempts at Alabama. With three years of experience now under his belt and having learned the college landscape, Simpson may be in line as the next quarterback of the Crimson Tide. Although Simpson doesn't have the explosive ability that Milroe had with his legs, he can still rush. The former five-star recruit has the arm to make an impression at this stage in his college career.

Austin Mack

Austin Mack is an intriguing option as a potential starter for the Crimson Tide in 2025. As we stand in January, Mack appears more of a long-term option for Alabama, but that won't exclude him from joining the offseason conversation. Mack has plenty of projectable traits to lead the offense, but he might have to wait a little longer.

Keelon Russell

Keelon Russell is a name that's generating some buzz. After throwing for nearly 50 touchdowns in 2024, Russell was named the Gatorade Player of the Year. You have to at least be enamored with the traits that Russell brings to the table. He's a high-end athlete and a dominant passer, two important traits in this process. 

Who Has the Inside Track?

With where we stand right now, it's not difficult to connect the dots and conclude that Ty Simpson is the current clubhouse leader. Simpson had time to learn the playbook last year and sit under Milroe, which should hold some value. This is still an open job with competition on the horizon. For now, Simpson has the pole position, but that doesn't mean it will end up that way when the Crimson Tide take on the Florida State Seminoles on August 30.
