That is undeniable fact. But i'm not one to try a new QB in a game that has been beaten in practice.

so are you saying 'what the hell why not start ns?' when you start thinking like that this early in the season youre just giving up.

Personal opinion. Kiffin knows that Crompton is best we have. You have to go with what you got. Fans booing at the game does little good and a lot of bad for recruiting. 2 QB system is no QB system. We could beat Florida, if Kiffin is right. At least we will not give up a 21 point lead if we get ahead like we did several times during Foolmer ( Chavis ). This is THE rebuilding year. Read the recruit list for 2010. We will get better every game from here on out. Let's be true vols and hang with our team. As I was leaving the game a UCLA fan was talking about a female UT fan being histerical after the game. His outlook was , "it is only a game". Be proud and loud. Other conferrence fans just don't understand.

Well Im not giving up. It just proves that JC is no different than last year.

Ill wait until after the FL game to start my campaign...

If he shows some leadership in that game Ill be impressed.

there will be no leadership in the uf game from anyone with the exception of EB.

Then I believe NS will start against OHIO.

Kiffin is not going to start Stephens against the #1 team in the country on the road. We are going to get beat and likely bad. If he starts Stephens and it is bad, then we shatter both QB's confidence. It's best to start Crompton against Florida and then start Stephens against Ohio.

are you saying you'd bench the other 21 players?

[OJ]

If Kiffin says it's so, then it's so. I belive. It's so great to be a Tennessee Vol. Now lets give them gators hell.

[DougVol]

Okay, here's the deal. Let's start NS, tell him to throw the ball away under pressure or great coverage, Ainge did it religiously without a sniff of a running game. If we have to punt, let's punt! I'm loving our defense right now. It's for real. Tebow will get sacked for a few. Just don't give the GDmn game away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hate that idea too. It means NS isn't strong enough to put up with being an SEC qb either. Why replace one headcase with another? Just teach Lamaison to hand off and start getting Bray's room in Gibbs ready

No my point is your QB is supposed to lead your offense....or at least show some leadership skills.

The other 21 players didnt lose that game on Saturday....JC lost that game.

Weren't a few of those INT's tipped?
I agree that he isn't a leader. But i could care less if he is or not.

[BeecherVol]

Hard to imagine, but Lane has to figure out a way to scale back the QBs responsibility at this point.

I personally think that he gave JC enough plays saturday to hang himself. I think that CLK has more confidence in JC right now than JC does. I feel bad for him, he has not had hardly any success at all in his time here.

If it is possible, he has to take the game out of JC (or NS) hands even more. On Saturday, 3 runs and a punt was a good possesion.
