He wants to be ready for next season. There is a time and a place for it.
After Alabama lost to Georgia in the national championship game, quarterback Bryce Young asked himself what he could do to grow.
In his first season as the starter, Young went 13-2 and won the Heisman.
He threw for over 4,000 yards, 47 touchdown and seven interceptions as a sophomore. He ran for three scores.
Young said he could have done a better job of having control of the offense, coordinating the run game pre-snap and doing a better job after the snap.
I'm trying to do a better job of communicating with all my guys and making sure that we're on the same page when I change something. There are a lot of things I want to improve on, you know, the regular stuff of accuracy and all that.
There is a long list for me. I feel like there is a lot of stuff when I go back and look at the games. I want to improve on a lot of the things that I can do better.
Young talked about chemistry at a news conference. He said that part of being at a place like Alabama is dealing with change.
John Metchie and Jameson Williams were the stars of last season. Running back Brian Robinson Jr. and left tackle Evan Neal are gone.
Alabama used the transfer portal to get former All-ACC running back Jahmyr Gibbs and former Georgia leading receiver Jermaine Burton.
It was the return of Bill O'Brien that Young said was huge for him.
O'Brien was rumored to be in the running for college and NFL head-coaching jobs, but instead returned for his second season in Tuscaloosa.
Young said that their first season together was a lot of figuring each other out.
I feel like we are always on the same page and that is exciting for me.
