This comment from a rival player...

[Volunteer_Kirby]

A reporter asked Florida LB David Reese if he'd ever felt sorry for a QB. His response: "Only QB Ive ever felt sorry for was maybe last year against Tennessee because he looked like he had enough."

Few things football-related are more humiliating than a storied rival taking pity on you like that. It's sad.

I Saw that. Doesn't surprise me. When things don't go JG' s way, he adopts a certain body language. He kinda quits trying and starts being mopy d!ck. Looking lost, falling down and making dumb throws. It IS pitiful. Saw it in the fourth quarter against Georgia State.

He does piss and moan a lot when things go bad

Sweet! Now we have bulletin board material!

Well he’s just speaking the truth. This would be prime locker room poster material but unfortunately, JG has never had a killer mentality.

 

[MiramarVol]

Well let me see you get the sense knocked out of you by a defense that has its ears laid back cause the OL is playing like a bunch of 5th graders and see how you feel after about 3 hours of getting up off your back side. You probably look like you had enough too.

Looking forward to the JG era to be over

He must do a lot of pissing and moaning.

Auburn disagrees

Auburn disagrees

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

He’s had one standout game that actually resulted in a win of significance.....

Now let’s look at the other starts.

Fact is he is more likely to be stale and not have a big game than the other way around.....

Your talking about a guy who threw four int.'s last yr.

This is true. I keep wondering... How did he look like ice man for that one game.

No sir. Football is like boxing, in that you never ever are allowed to look like you had enough. No matter how bad it gets,when you start showing your opponent your pain and fear, you simply invite more damage. Its Not just a "tough guy" it's self preservation and damn near instinctual. When you showing you've had enough you are simply begging for mercy from an opponent who is trained to give exactly none.

I seem to remember our WRs winning a lot of 50/50 balls that game.

Agree. You should link the video of Andrew Luck saying, "good hit big guy" every time he gets sacked.

Ha, saw it two years ago when he was sitting on the bench during the GA Tech game.

People keep mentioning Auburn and Kentucky. BUT, you do know that those are the ONLY SEC games that JG has ever won. Right? And he is 0-2 against mighty Vanderbilt.

He is piling up more dubious distinctions than any QB in recent UT memory.

This showed me everything I needed to know. And people wonder why the team won’t play for the guy.

Well, I mean, JG did take some beatings last year that few on this board can truly fathom the physical toll of. I think the guy's got a form of sports PTSD, probably 90% of the quarterbacks alive would be scarred for life if they spent a year being "protected" by our 2018 OL. It's a situation where sadly, he'd have been much better off not coming here.

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

Our Oline isn’t very good and neither is our QB not a good combination in the SEC.

This is hands-down the funniest thing I have ever read on this forum. Hopefully you meant blue font?

I knew there were more reasons to like you other than being a mutual STEEL CURTAIN fan! I hope his era is over after UTC!!!

Who TF is David Reese

I find it interesting that everyone seems to think replacing JG with a QB who has never played will suddenly make the defense play like they give a crap and the Oline like they can block somebody for more than a nanosecond.

Still using the OL excuse, huh? It wasn't the whole truth a year ago; now it's just false. They weren't great but they were miles better than the guy they protected.
