quote:

Bentley's career can best be defined as up-and-down, both with the Utes this past season and with South Carolina where he spent the first four years of his college career, playing in just over three of them.

He complied a 19-14 career record in the SEC, leading South Carolina to the Belk Bowl in 2018 and the Outback Bowl in 2017, even taking home MVP honors during the Outback Bowl. He's one of the most prolific passers in Gamecock history, ranking in the top-5 in career completion percentage (.625), career pass completions (626), passing touchdowns (55), career passing yards (7,527) and career total offense (7,670).

He also shows up in big games, throwing for 510 yards and five touchdowns in a 56-35 loss to Clemson during the 2018 season, the same year that the Tigers won the national championship. The 35 points scored by South Carolina were the most the Tigers gave up all season long.


quote:

Bentley will join a South Alabama team that went 4-7 in 2020. He will compete with sophomore Desmond Trotter (1,917 yards, 11 TD's) and junior Chance Lovertich (619 passing yards, 5 TD's) for the starting gig.


Trotter will be a tougher out to beat out but lol at Lovertich even being mentioned.

my 12 year old nephew is taller than Lovertich.

Lovertich was pretty decent when he was in, but he was either suspended or injured the last 4-5 games of the year. The coaches kept very hush about it.

Yeah, but he should have been in high school that year.

to be fair, the USA O-line wasn't that good this past season. The pass protection was definitely lacking so they'll need to fix that going forward.

He's not the only one that should have been in high school.
