Jeff Aaron was UAB’s steady, dual-threat spark — with grit to match
In the 2001 season, Jeff Aaron showed real dual-threat juice for UAB: he had a 17-for-23, 187-yard, 2-touchdown passing day with another rushing score against Army, and earlier in 2000 he won games with efficient throws and timely scrambling. He also played through an ankle sprain that sidelined him briefly, which says plenty about his toughness. The fit? If you want a quarterback who can extend plays, compete hard, and provide veteran steadiness under pressure, Aaron checks a lot of boxes.
