Four different bosses can not hide real talent, JG just does not have it.

JG can make all the throws. He just doesn't seem to have any confidence in his abilities. I am not heading the JG for heisman committee, but he needs stability in the OC seat before he is written off.

Slick didn't say anything wrong. Was all pretty innocent.

I'm still so confused about that. I miss having LA around, sucks. But that was 1 of the mildest arguments that I've seen here.

Always respected that LA didn't participate in the fighting, wish I was better at that. But it's inevitable that you're going to have a disagreement from time to time.

It's frustrating that he gets in his own way. They run the routes in practice and apparently his timing is just fine. Throws the ball "where the receiver is going to be". It's just maddening to know that it's right there but we can't take advantage because he doesn't trust it when the spotlight comes on.

Yes, it is so frustrating watching him. Love his toughness and dedication, but I get excited when the defense comes in. My son turned a tripal play at 9. He even fielded a ball behind 2nd base and threw the runner out going to first while on his knees. But as soon as he did something wrong he could not let it go. When all stars came, we made it to state because there were a lot of good players......he could not enjoy it for worrying about if the coaches were going to pull him if he made a mistake. Drove us all crazy. As frustrated as we are with JG, the coaches have to be even more so.

This is what I am curious about… How will he be getting to be in the same system for a second year for the first time in his career? In all honesty, as much as he frustrates all of us, we need to hope that he takes a huge leap and can be the starter and perform at the level that they see he does in practice. If so, we could be in for a special year. That is unless Bailey Is another Trevor Lawrence and leads us to the national championship as a true freshman, in which case, we will all allow that!

This train of thought blows my mind. JG has shown us who he is. Forget the OC, forget the OL, forget the play calls...the kid can’t play. He just can’t.

He has no awareness, no presence, no consistency. If this is still the case after 4 years...it’s 100% on him.

Look at good Freshman QB’s- they’ll get their ass kicked early in the year...then they’ll adjust. They get better. They LEARN.

JG has a learning problem. It’s time for him to be on the bench or transfer. Either is OK.

My son is very similar. Excellent football player, very advanced physically for his age, and has a great football IQ. He’s just super hard on hisself, and we’ve worked more on mental training than physical with him.
He’ll come off a game with 10 tackles, and a 100 yards rushing after a 3td win and be pissed because he took one bad angle, or wrong cut.

Yes!!! And rerouting that brain is a constant challenge.

What a twit. Such an over inflated program. Can’t wait to put them back in their proper place.

My daughter was like this with basketball. Could go 4-5 and all she could talk about was the one miss. My son is the opposite. He gives up a homer and it’s, give me the ball. It’s gonna happen so let’s forget about it and move on. He always does his best effort which is all you ask for. But, some coaches coach where players do get blasted for human error and don’t mean effort. That in turns gets them to playing tight

Should start a private forum where access is only allowed for verified accounts. Criteria for validation to be determined by Jack Burton.

I don't think JG will be here in the fall.

Very possible. If he is, it means he feels confident that he will be playing significant time next year. Honestly, he may as well stay. I don't think he is getting drafted and so unless he wants to do his Master's degree somewhere else he might as well stay here.

My daughter was like that. It was so much more fun with her even though she never performed as well as him. When one of the players said JG couldn't let things go, I started seeing him differently. He is more relaxed coming off the bench knowing someone else could go in, and the team is not totally depending on him. Not normal for a QB.
