"Obviously, his skill set, the ability to run the ball, escape from the pocket, that puts pressure on the defense," Shuler said. "That doesn't make it as difficult on the offensive line. Great experience, latter part of the year for him, to get in some game situations, playing a critical role, making the plays when he needed to make them. Josh did a fabulous job. He's that true leader on the team. He's gonna give us an opportunity. Smart player, doesn't make mistakes, doesn't turn the ball over. His athleticism will give us more opportunities to win this year."
"You're looking at a team that started playing really well through the latter part of the year," Shuler said. "Gaining experience. Two or three years of really great recruiting classes. The opportunity is ahead of us. I think it's that focus. The first few games. You've got the Arkansas game (Oct. 3). You've got the Oklahoma game (Sept. 12). Those are going to be real tests for us early. It would be really great to get those early wins when we really start in the SEC East and have an opportunity to play in the championship game in Atlanta."
