Michael Penix thinks Alabama’s Kalen DeBoer will win the championship in three years.
During the week, Penix and the next wave of NFL players have been in Mobile for the Reese’s Senior Bowl, which takes place on Saturday following a week of workouts and team assessments.
While acknowledging that he dislikes self-promotion, the quarterback was more than eager to discuss the reasons why Alabama football supporters should be thrilled about the man taking Nick Saban’s place as the team’s head coach in Tuscaloosa.
Penix praised him as a superb instructor. He will exert a great deal of pressure on the players. Specifically on the offensive end of the ball, he will ensure that every player is ready for action on game day.It’s going to be lit up, man.
After throwing for 3,812 yards and 40 touchdowns with just four interceptions in 2023, Penix guided the Huskies to a 14-1 record and the College Football Playoff National Championship Game. He was beaten by LSU’s Jayden Daniels for second place in the Heisman Trophy vote.
He said, “It’s incredible how much offense he installs.” “A significant amount of ball movement down the field. Being wise with it, of course. The play’s timing is exceptional.
It’s not very unlikely that DeBoer will win a championship in three years. Under DeBoer, the Huskies were vying for a national championship in their second season at Washington. DeBoer finished third in the 2007 NAIA national championship race and has a 67-3 record while attending Sioux Falls from 2005 to 2009.
Penix clarified that there are other reasons for Tide supporters to be happy than that.Washington native Austin Mack, a freshman quarterback, committed to Alabama earlier this month. To join the Huskies for the 2018โ19 season, he reclassified from the recruiting class of 2024. Keeping his redshirt, he did not play in 2023. He will be eligible to play for the Crimson Tide for four seasons.
Concerning Mack’s reclassification, Penix stated, “He wanted to be able to spend a year in the offense, seeing me and how I operated in the offense.” I did all in my power to support him, uplift him, and maintain his confidence while demonstrating as much of the offense as I could. There’s no stopping his confidence.
At Alabama, he is going to be a phenomenal player. In Alabama, it will undoubtedly become a household name very quickly. For such a young age, he is incredibly talented. When he first entered, I saw it.
