Grubb has not been shy about who he feels is the leader in the race. After A-Day, the Alabama offensive coordinator said if the Crimson Tide were to play a game that next day, Simpson would be the starter. That same refrain has been repeated multiple times by DeBoer throughout the offseason heading into fall.

The Crimson Tide offensive coordinator wanted the battle to end 'yesterday,' but he shared the steps that the trio must take to win the starting job.

Ty Simpson remains the frontrunner to be the Crimson Tide’s next starting quarterback, but he has not secured the role through two days of fall camp. Keelon Russell and Austin Mack continue to compete against Simpson for the role.
