Milroe on Sayin: ‘He spins the ball really well’

Alabama’s newest 5-star prospect and possible future heir to the quarterback throne is already making an impression on the current QB1 in Tuscaloosa.

Julian Sayin, the No. 1 ranked quarterback in the class of 2024, is among the early enrollees in the class of 2024 that have joined the Crimson Tide for Rose Bowl practice.

Jalen Milroe offered high praise for the young gunslinger from Carlsbad in what limited action he’s seen from him so far:

"He spins the ball really well. It's been really good to have him in the room…he's a good dude." – Jalen Milroe on Alabama's latest addition to the QB room, Julian Sayin. #RollTide @JalenMilroe @juliansayin2 pic.twitter.com/6J7PgU3hEb

“He spins the ball really well. It’s been really good to have him in the room, to have another guy in the room. With everything, just appreciative to have another brother in the room. He’s doing a really good job practicing. He’s a good dude,” Milroe said.

Milroe, who was an early enrollee of the 2021 class, went on to say that he has found himself in a similar situation to the one Sayin now finds himself in:

“I’ve been in his shoes, being a freshman coming into college. All I can try to do is give him the information that I’ve gotten and really allow him to be a sponge with all the information that I have and just be a good teammate for him,” Milroe said.
