Greg McElroy on the impact this will have on Hurd's NFL draft prospects:

"I can tell you one thing, when he’s getting evaluated by front office personnel, there will be a massive red flag next to his name, knowing that when things got a little tough and Tennessee lost three straight, he decided to walk out on his team. What does that tell you about his character and his competitive spirit? He’s going to forever be remembered as a quitter.”

Matter of opinion I suppose.

Well if you are looking to form a narrative about attrition to use against CBJ, I'm sure his posting isn't being liked as well because he is shooting down the simple minded stuff coming from that camp by using context instead of just taking numbers as face value.

And there's been enough attrition that it warrants taking a look at but most of these kids leaving were processed or never made it here. We signed a huge class. Some saw playing time because they had a pulse and could wear a helmet. Bama's starting point was different than ours. You can't just say 30 vs 19. It's not that simple. Butch has overhauled this roster but we still aren't there yet. Attrition can be good or bad depending on the player, need, roster, etc.

Or framing a narrative to support him. But hey, semantics.

I want to play the mechanic game you guys were playing earlier.
Beginning of the year, sir I've tuned your corvette and I think we've got this east race in the bag.

Mechanic now. Sir I've I've tried to get your car ready for the race but. You've got three flat tires.
O'Brien, Tuttle and McKenzie
Your turbo is out,
JRM
Your fuel pump isn't working.
Sutton
Your nitrous just ran out.
Kamara
All your pistons are bent,
Offensive line.
And your rear end just quit.
I think you know.

But we still expect you to win every game no matter what.
I know it hasn't been great but I've played and watched a lot of football and I've never seen a team lose as many important pieces as this team.
There are injuries every year but when you lose 3/4 of your top
Players it's tough.

I just can't understand how you and others like you keep using defensive injuries as a reason for why our offense is losing games for us or almost losing games for us.

So is it official that Kelly is pretty good now? Lot of "what has he ever shown"s a mere 3 weeks ago.

Can someone please post a link or quote what De1 said about the concussions? I'm interested in reading it, but do not feel like taking an hour to go find it.

Think he meant, he can't transfer down and play unless he plans on using his last year of eligibility.

Well sure he only has one year left to play regardless of where he goes but I read it he would have to sit out transferring down as well. Maybe I read it wrong

A mere 3 weeks ago he didn't really have anything to show. However, I have been on the Kelly train for a while now. Since before the season, actually. And that train got faster after what TS said about him.
