"Very good for Vols. Only question is if Tennessee, or any college, get a commitment out of him that has him agreeing to not going pro this summer.

If that happens, then I think Tennessee will be tough to beat. I think Tennessee feels like they need that from Thompson given their QB situation."

Just watched his film. Pretty dang good film for an old lowly 3* 😊

No doubt would be a great pickup for a class that looked like we would only have depth signed at QB. This guy could play

Given their QB situation? Is this some sort of concession that one or more will leave once the new QB is named next year? To word it as such a desperate situation makes me think so

I didnt think of that but you may have a point. It seems that some on here have said that one of QD, SJ and JG will transfer next year. I am not saying its a guarantee but it could happen.

So, at one time we thought we had 5 star Trevor Lawrence locked up, but now we are supposed to be excited about taking a QB out of Alabama( with No offer from the state schools). And his best sport isn't football....

Not even the same class so I'm not sure how that's relevant.

Don't be excited. Just go off and mourn. This is obviously way past you, so go be unhappy so where else.

Speaking purely from a QB depth perspective I think ideally you see QD for two years then JG for two and then it's a battle between Thompson and whoever we get in 18 and 19...

If JG gets it next year then I think QD and SJ leave and that's a bad situation for us

Need at least one QB in every class IMO. Not getting an elite this cycle, so take a project with upside. Actually has a good release and touch on the long ball with a live arm. Stands in the pocket well. Will have difficulty seeing over lineman and remains to be seen if he can move in the pocket enough to find the passing lanes or look off DB's. Looks to have good quickness to run the read option.

That would be the worst case situation for us. The other way around like you have it with QD starting first would be the more ideal situation. However, we don't know if JG & SJ both might leave if QD wins the job for 2017.

Then, all we would have is QD, Jancek & whoever we get here for 2017. Bubba or whoever. That would be a scary situation if QD was to get injured.
