Heres my take pal: If they are only a buggywhip apart either way, Feeley will start. Obviously, Saban will err on the side of youth if there is only a negligible amount of difference between the two after the Jax game. I think Saban will declare a clear cut starter before the 4th preseason game so that that player can gel with the offense in the last two games.
Sabans no dummy he knows Feeley has talent. But, on the devils advocate side, who else does he have to put into competition with Frerotte?...Sage?
The ball is in Feeley's court, he just needs to put on his A Game.
Saban has no desire to fail in any position.
