Vols release depth chart ahead of Tennessee Tech game

Milton took some hellacious shots at Michigan. He may surprise us passing when he is not sporting a broken thumb

His running style is what makes me nervous. It's like he is Denard Robinson for a brief moment and then he possesses the agility of Tyler Bray a few seconds later

It's wholly based on his authority, your entire argument is predicated on "Josh Heupel is an ex heisman winning player and a football coach, who sees the players practice day in and day out, coaches the players, is installing Josh Heupel’s offensive system, does film study on the oponentes, therefore Josh Huepel is therefore correct about which qb he feels gives the Tennessee team the best chance to win; textbook example of the fallacy really.

fixed your post. Textbook example of the most common volnation fallacy, which is completely rewording someone else’s post to make to try to win an argument

There you go again, making yourself look worse.

Listing more of his credentials as a response to an argument, instead of actually refuting the argument, only reaffirms your use of a the 'appeal to authority' fallacy.

That's our problem. We don't have a consistent and effective QB. At least not from what I have seen. But I could be proven wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.

Since Peyton; maybe? And Casey Clausen. Well, I'm leaving Dobbs out, and He was great too. But few and Far between.

Great, please make an actual argument as to why Heupel isn’t the authority on Josh Heupels system, instead of just attacking my argument.

If Hooker isn't getting first team reps to get his timing down with his receivers, he's going to be at a disadvantage come game time when he gets tossed in. That's why continuing the Milton project, and giving him those first team practice reps all week, only for him to still be Joe Milton, is detrimental to Hooker when he's got to go in and try to play cleanup.

Hell, it's why bringing Milton into the program in the first place is overall detrimental to the QB room as a whole. How much time and effort have been, and are still being expended to try and fix Milton's issues that he's had since high school, and 3 years at Michigan couldn't fix?

Just admit you hated the JH hire and want this thing to blow up so you can pi$$ and moan about it for eternity.

Here’s an idea - let Heupel do whatever the F he wants at QB for more than 8 quarters without hyperventilating about it.

It's really a new issue.

Before the JG debacle we had
Dobbs
Bray
Crompton for a year
Ainge
Clausen
Tee
Peyton
Shuler
Kelly etc

The past few years have been an exception to the norm. It has never really been this bad! And I think right now it feels worse and more dire than it is because of the JG years.

I've already made it, several times. There's nothing about Milton's performance at Michigan, that set him above Hooker with his performance at VT, or Bailey's performance at UT.

This has been reaffirmed by his play in both games this season.

Josh Heupel being a Heisman candidate, and the head coach, is not a refutation of the argument. Him being both of those things, does not change the fact that Milton, was the worse choice to start on Saturday, as was demonstrated by Hooker's ability to more effectively move the offense after Milton left the game.

I only went back to the Best ever (PM). SHULER; Absolutely. The others? All pretty flawed.

Here we go again, the coach is always right, even when he's wrong, and any criticism is "hate".

Feels like Dooley/Butch/Pruitt era all over again; I do so love nostalgia.

Does anybody remember the wild stallion from Wyoming, Josh Allen? You know the starting QB for the Buffalo Bills. He was much like Milton, 6'5 with a cannon of an arm but a low completion percentage throughout his college career. Milton still has too much upside to not start him against Tenn Tech. I don't know if he's fixable within 1 season, but let's give it a little more time.

yeah but this isn't his first season is the issue.

Giving the 1st year coach more than 8 quarters is not “the coach is always right”, it’s just a lot more logical than “the coach is always wrong”

Completion percentage is the only similarity between those two from a production standpoint.

That's the point, Josh was just as in-accurate and he is a starting QB in the NFL. Do you think Milton isn't capable of similar stats if he can get a full (healthy) season under his belt? The comparison was also stature and intangibles. I would guess Milton runs a 4.7 and can throw just as far/hard.

Has anyone seen Milton and Guranatano actually in a game at the same time? (Not very likely given the time zone gap). But I have a theory. Maybe JG is somehow possessing Milton during the game. The ultimate revenge, he continues to destroy us only now from thousands of miles away.

The same nonsense that was spouted when any criticism was leveled at a coach before it was apparent that they were getting fired.

Just admit that you don't believe fans should discuss a coach's decisions and performance on a message board, and you believe that the only purpose Volnation should serve is to provide an outlet for abject coach worship.

See how that works Fade?
