Alabama football: Saban not ruling out a two-quarterback system

TUSCALOOSA — Though there will be a competition throughout spring practice, it is not “out of the question” that Alabama will employ a two-quarterback system next season, coach Nick Saban revealed Friday in an interview with ESPN’s Chris Low.

"The most important thing is to play the best guy, and if both guys can play winning football, it's not out of the question that we'll find a role for both guys in fairness to both guys," Saban said. "I don't know that there's any more to it than that."
