According to Hank South of Bama Online, former ECU quarterback Gardner Minshew is expected to join the Alabama Crimson Tide sometime this summer. Minshew is a graduate transfer and is eligible to play immediately. He surfaced as a potential add for Tennessee last week.
Alabama had the jump on Minshew, however. They’ve been the team out front for the duration of this process. With Tua Tagovailoa and Jalen Hurts in the picture, he would be a valuable insurance policy for Nick Saban in 2018. Especially if one of those were to transfer.
