He could close practice and not allow any media access at all. Other coaches do exactly that.

That wouldn't stop them from releasing a projected depth chart.

 

[volfanCLT]

The guy at ole miss is good too. Think his name is Tamua or something. Then there’s burrow at LSU. This might be the best group of QBs in the SEC I’ve seen. Especially when JG shows everyone what he’s got

Drew Lock too

He’s gonna be a 1st rounder

 

[BruinVol]

If toughness is the most repeated trait about your QB then he probably sucks

Meh


Steve Mcnair was called tough more than anything else. I don't think he was a great HOF QB but he was dang good

Pretty sure JG's arm talent gets a lot of praise. But I'm sure you filter that out.

Lmk when arm talent correlates to anything on the field.

 

[Sleegro]

Looking at the depth chart, is Gray just going to fade into the background like Bates has for the past 3yrs, or do you think he will find his way on the field?

Isn't Bates in the 2 deep?

 

[Kingston Vol]

LMAO at that Offensive “depth chart”

What’s weird is they didn’t even bother to put the “ORS” in alphabetical order.

 

[jakez4ut]

yes, he is.

I will. But that wasn't the point. You claimed that toughness was the most repeated trait about him. I would say his arm talent is talked about far more. Is that a trait you would approve of being said about yer qb?

 

[SpringBokVol]

A lot of great QB are tough.

Worley was as tough as nails.

Beat a top 10 team too

 

[jordan4vols]

I’m starting to feel more confident with each passing minute. The 2013 team finished 5-7 against a harder schedule with less talent and with Butch Jones at HC.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

 

[RikidyBones]

talk about a fall from grace.

 

[HankHill]

Tua, Fromm, stidham, and Herbert at UO

-Tua has played one half, new OC.
-Fromm really wasn’t asked to do much of anything for that offense, lost top 2 RBs, top 2 OL, and Top WR.
- Herbert looks the part but new coach, and only 15 TDS last year.

Not saying those guys won’t be great but they have some major questions and there’s few known commodities right now especially at big programs. That’s why i think Grier and co. Get elevated or overhyped Bc it’s a safe pick.
Stidham is a good one tho, forgot about him.

 

[Sleegro]

Would you take his college production? He had pretty similar numbers his RS Freshman season but wasn't as accurate as JG their first years.

We will soon see. I don't think JG is going to be very good.

 

[HankHill]

yes, he is.

I highly highly doubt bates gets a lot of Clock. Don’t care what that chart says lol

I know you don't. I do. We will see.

oh, i couldn't even hazard a guess. just that he was 2 on the depth chart at his position.

if he can be productive, stay healthy and provide some depth, great. but yeah, if he's out there a lot, then we have had something else go wrong. i'd imagine going with the 4 for 4 mentaility pruitt wants his LB's to be, i'd say the ILB's would be interchangeable to some degree, and we'd see some variation of bituli, DK, Sapp...ignot then Bates.

The way i see it is:

Edge Lbs: Kongbo/Taylor, backed up by D. Johnson/ Austin Smith.

MLB: Bituli/sapp, backed up by DK(maybe start if healthy) and Reid/ignot.

Add in JJ Peterson if he ever gets here ...

I just don’t see a scenario where he gets on the field a lot.

Tua played more than a half. He got a lot of reps in games (go watch his stuff against Vandy and us).

Fromm doesn’t get enough credit. I think he will still be good this year.

Agree on Herbert, but maybe Cristobal gets their oline to play well to keep him from getting hurt again

 

[VolsnCards5]

Sorry boys, I have a bad feeling. Ever since the magical time of Fall 2006-Spring 2007 (when My teams won 3 championships: Cardinals, Colts, Lady Vols) karma only allows one of my teams to be playing well at any given time. Right now, that’s the Cardinals.

Tua probably got into a number of games for mop-up duty last year. But if the new redshirt rule was in effect in 2017 and his playing time was managed accordingly, he could have still saved Bama's NC last year but still have 4 years of eligibility left. Pretty crazy to me...
