A fair assessment and I've felt Milton was the guy since Heupel signed him.Milton mostly looks good in that Indiana game, but he has a few inexplicable passes that he should've never attempted. He also tries to force things too often; throwing short bullet passes that get him in trouble; even when they are "accurate", they are dangerous throws. You can see that even more versus Wisconsin.
The other issue I see is that he doesn't seem to have much pocket awareness. Not that his OL was doing him any favors, but he has no sense that the rush is coming in those highlights.
That said, when he's on, he's on. If he can find more consistency and play more intelligently, he could be an excellent QB. Hoping Heupel's offense suits him more than Harbaugh's. And from watching this, I think he'll have better WRs here as well.
He averaged 2.5 yards per rush @ Michigan so on 4th down bring the yardstick out. Because 4X2.5 = 1st down. Just run him every down. Those QB rushes are exciting. At 2.5 per rush he is a dominant dual threat.
Add on to all of this, Michigan had ZERO running game. And that's huge. We are going to run the ball and that will help facilitate his talents tremendously better than Michigan did.Milton mostly looks good in that Indiana game, but he has a few inexplicable passes that he should've never attempted.

Bailey should start. Milton and Hooker were failures or they wouldn’t be at Tennessee. Typical TN bad coaching decision. Another long 3 years with Humpone in charge. Let’s start looking for a coach now.
I don't know who will be QB 1,Im a Bailey fan myself, but writing them off because they are transfers is stupid. There is a TON of QBs who transfer and it ended up working out for them.
This ain't even scratching the surface, but
Ryan Mallett
Russell Wilson
Jake Coker
Baker Mayfield
Kyler Murray
Will Grier
Cam Newton
Riley Ferguson
JT Daniels
Few observations -
1. His OL absolutely sucked. They were horrible. He had no time to set his feet.
2. He throws more accurately on the run.
3. He is very inaccurate downfield (probably because of his OL) in the videos.
4. He is not very accurate in the pocket over 10 yards (again, probably OL). He needs to be on the outside in bootlegs, etc throwing on the run.
