Alabama State QB Engram unfazed by criticism

For more than two years now, as he's worked to be the Alabama State starting quarterback, Alex Engram has tried to ignore the doubters and pessimists. It just does no good to listen to them. Things haven't always gone well during his time at QB and he knows it. In fact, they've gone downright terrible at times, and Engram is the first to admit that.

So, he understands why fans now doubt his ability to run the ASU offense. He just doesn't care.

"I've always been the kind of guy that I don't listen to that stuff from fans, whether it be good or bad," Engram said. "I don't mean any disrespect, but listening to them doesn't help. I've always tried to keep my head down, work with my coaches and just get better."

It appears that Engram with be the third string quarterback for ASU. From the comments made by coach Reggie Barlow, he has his eyes set on the baseball player, Devin Dominguez as his starter, and Brandon Dowdell as his second string QB. Unless Engram has an NFL type Fall camp, he can get ready to kiss the end of the bench for the season opener at Florida A&M.
