Alabama football grabs big-time talent in QB Austin Mack from NCAA transfer portal
He has the size, confidence, athleticism, and an electric arm to be special for Alabama football.
The Crimson Tide got a quarterback last week from the NCAA transfer portal in Austin Mack.
Mack comes from the University of Washington and is a native of California. After graduating from Folsom High School a year ahead of schedule, he went on to play for the Huskies in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game and win a Pac-12 Championship.
The 6-foot-6 athlete is eager to work with Ryan Grubb, Alabama, and Kalen DeBoer.Mack has excellent footwork, pocket awareness, anticipation, and play-extending abilities, according to his high school footage. He has good timing and accuracy for a wide range of throws. It’s impressive to watch how he can climb the pocket, evade pressure, and maintain focus downfield.
Brock Huard, a former Washington quarterback, said Mack as a ‘massive upside.’
It will be fun to see how he fits in with the team when spring practice starts.
