Greg McElroy, Jr QB

As a high school backup to Chase Daniel, McElroy patiently waited his turn until his senior season in which he eventually broke nearly every passing record on the books in the state of Texas. After arriving at Alabama, McElroy was again asked to wait patiently through John Parker Wilson's three-year tenure as the Tide's starting QB, and now it looks as though once again the young Texan will get his chance to shine.

Tide fans liked what little they saw of McElroy last season, particularly the perfectly tossed touchdown bomb late in the game against Auburn, but he'll need to produce plenty of plays like that this spring to hold off stiff competition from the young and talented Star Jackson.
