What makes Alabama football’s new quarterback commit stand out

Jett Thomalla recently flipped his commitment from Iowa State to Alabama.

Thomalla, who attends Millard South High School in Omaha, Nebraska, is a quarterback the Crimson Tide made a hard push for after offering in May. There are multiple reasons why the Tide chose to prioritize him and some of those reasons were evident when John Teigland, the Director of Quarterback Development at Warren Academy, started to work with Thomalla in middle school.

“Jett from a very young age, just had a very live arm, could really push the ball down the field for a kid his age,” Teigland said.
