I think when you look at some of the other true freshman starters (Francois, Buechele, Eason) you see far better accuracy.

OTOH, 'Bama's still 'Bama and it's not like they're going to fall off the face of the earth.
Accuracy comes with practice. It's as much about the receivers as it is with the QB. If you have a QB that's constantly practicing with the same receivers, accuracy should improve. Ohio State is a good example. We lost every starting receiver for the 2016 season, and the passing offense suffered big time.
