| Jake Heaps vs Jesse Scroggins, etc
Its annoying to go to a Jake Heaps or Jesse Scroggins thread and get pages and pages of peoples opinions of the two, who they want, or even endless arguments about the Mormon faith. Hopefully people can state their arguments in this thread, and we can keep the player threads on topic. I know this will probably get merged, but i really don't care
I prefer Heaps btw. JMO
Fire away. |

| Scroggins, only if we take Marve/ Newton. Otherwise Heaps because he can play quicker. | |

| The reason i like Heaps better is because he can come in and start (and be effective IMO) from day 1, which is what i feel we need the most. Don't get me wrong, i love Scroggins, but just keep in mind that Heaps is the staff's #1 prospect, and the staff knows what theyre doing. | |

| Scroggins is my pick. He plays against better competition. Heaps is good though.

| Could it really hurt us that bad if Marve and Newton come here? or is that just people opinion? I still think we could get one even if Marve does come here. Newton would just be a added bonus. If Newton came to the hill do you see us using a two QB system so Cam would be an option in short yardage situations?
Either Jake or Jesse would be perfect. | |

Fire away. | before fans choose either if these two as favorites, they better ask themselves the question, Why is UT looking at a transfer to walk-on and 2 junior college quarterbacks that can be on board in 2010??? (one actually might be able to get here in 2009).
IMO the staff is finding the high school ranks lacking what they need and have turned to more experienced and mature players they feel are "better". I also think they don't see anwers for 2010 on current roster...

| Heaps is hands down the better qb of the two. better at looking off coverage, going through his progression, more accurate, quicker release. | |

| I like either one. I like Jakes attitude better, but Jessie plays with better talent. so either way.

|  Magic Johnson?
Don't know which one's a mormon, but if the magic underwear imbues him with magical powers, he should bring his act to UT. | |

JMO | Cam Newton could get here in 09? That would change things drastically. | |
