If Hooker gets hurt this weekend, I wanna see some of yall keel this energy up when this team ends up with 5 wins because it has no QB.

I understand everyone’s thinking though when they say, “it doesn’t send a good a message to the team from a chemistry standpoint” but I also agree with your point, if we lose Hooker, then we may not make a bowl game, which also translates to losing the team.

Uhhhhh just go play I guess? Lmao

Yea if we beat bama then I’m ruining my sobriety and going to jail happily. It’s only fair to ruin my life immediately after the greatest achievement for this school in my lifetime (that I can remember

Read Charger’s post on this. I agree with him. The staff have the kids believing in them and in themselves. How do you think these same players react if they are told “we don’t see any need of some of you playing against them, they are going to win anyway. Let’s save your playing time against a team we think we could win against”? That would be the fastest way to lose the team. We’d be back to being a team with players laughing with each other on the sidelines while we are losing.

I'm sure the guys love playing for the fans but in reality this group of guys play for each other and that's the attitude they need going forward. Half our fan base doesn't believe UT will ever compete for championships again and that's fine. This staff and our players believe it and that's what ultimately matters.

Agree and I'm a Cardinal fan my entire life. I would have been pizzed if Cards won 106 and could have been booted with one game. Braves won 88 games I think and they get 4 home games?? Messed up..

Speaking of the Cardinals…. I loved watching those mid 80’s team play with Vince Coleman, and willie McGee…. I really enjoy that style of baseball.

That's why I'm fine with him starting but if/when the game gets out of hand pull Cooper, Hooker, Evans etc... if they keep it 3 scores or less play them. 4 scores and Bama has ball pull them.

We will beat Vandy and South Alabama no matter who the QB is….. never ever ever ever teach your players that you are afraid of another team….you have to give them the confidence that we will play anyone…. any where…. any time.

Bailey can beat candy and the cupcake. Pulling players is such a bad message. They better be ready to beat the brakes off bamas players. I’m so tired of teams that lay down or choke. We are coming to bring pain.

That’s just it. They BELIEVE it now and I’ll take that any day versus just dialing it in and just waiting for the next coach to leave or be replaced.

It's worse than that. He got dinged up while playing badly in the opener they lost to Utah State. He sat for two games and they brought him back against Utah as the starter and he played poorly again. De Laura finished both Utah State and Utah games. De Laura has taken it over for good. They have won their last three with de Laura throwing 15 TD's this season in 4 starts and two mop-ups with JG throwing 1 in his two starts.
