Alabama Football: What to look for in spring from Sark and the QBs

Alabama football fans want to know how Steve Sarkisian will change the Crimson Tide offense. Will Sark take the 2019 Tide to the West Coast style he has always preferred? Will Sark retain some of the RPO schemes utilized by Mike Locksley last season? Could the new offense be a mixture of both? Had Sarkisian remained with the Atlanta Falcons, it is believed he intended to incorporate some RPO as an enhancement to outside zone rushes.

Quarterbacks running West Coast systems are forced to make good reads and make them either pre-snap or quickly post-snap. Sarkisian will no doubt work with all the Tide quarterbacks, and especially Tua to get the ball out quickly.
