Change My View: Jacob Coker So.. every Alabama fan in existence has heard of Jake Coker at some point or another over the past two seasons. Last year he was supposed to walk in, take the quarterback job, and give Alabama the best passing offense it's had in years. That didn't happen. This year, once again he was expected to easily get the job, but he's yet to even create significant separation between him and David Cornwell. Is Jake Coker an overrated bust who can't even take the starting job, or is he still a quarterback who can do great things at Alabama?
