QB Jacob Coker confirms transfer to Alabama

As initially reported by BamaOnline.com, former Florida State quarterback Jacob Coker has officially signed with the University of Alabama in the form of a transfer.
Coker, who served as Jameis Winston's backup during the 2013 season, is scheduled to graduate in May. Upon completion of his coursework, Coker will fulfill the transfer to Alabama without penalty. Allowed to play in 2014 per NCAA rules, Coker will have two years of eligibility.
The pride of St. Paul's Episcopal, the same school responsible for former Tide quarterback AJ McCarron, Coker will likely be the favorite to fill the vacancy left by McCarron.

In a statement released by UA, Coker expressed his excitement to begin a new chapter at Alabama, while thanking Florida State for a wonderful experience.

In the world of well kept secrets, this one was a flop. One can only hope that Coker's potential in Tuscaloosa will culminate in better fashion.
