Yep they’re best pick ups so far are this Missouri player and Noah Cain

Edit: this Missouri LB sucks. 27 tackles for the year. Had 2 solo tackles against us this year

Noah Cain very well may be ruined goods. He had a legit injury his SO year and gained a god awful 3.3 YPC last year. I mean...that is really really bad.

Against UGA HH was 24/37 - 244 yds. More than any QB against UGA that did not win a Heisman. Against Bama HH was 19/28 - 282 yds.

Not mind blowing numbers, but Stetson Bennett went 17/29 - 213 yds against us, for comparison. Hooker wasn't even close to being the problem in those games.

On the year, Hooker threw for 3000 yards, 31 Touchdowns, and only 3 interceptions, and added 616 on the ground.

3 interceptions on 303 attempts.

Check out the last TD pass to Tillman in the corner of the endzone against UK. Or any of these throws - - There are tons of throws into tight coverage.

And most completed passes ever in history are the result of receivers being schemed open, or busted coverage. There is the occasional perfect throw against perfect coverage, but no more or less for HH than any other QB.

If you are just looking for something to complain about, there are plenty of options. QB play is not one of them.

Hooker didn't have a good game during the bowl and normally, I'd say that was what was tainting his opinion but considering the poster you're responding to, that's just how he is.

He certainly missed some shots that game...

But when your "bad game" is going for 378 yards at 9 yards per attempt...62%...5 TDs and 0 INTs...well that feels like it answers the questions. If that's bad, I can't wait to see great.

I hadn’t paid attention to their losses? Anyone good?
Click to expand...

- Dwight McGlothern- 4 star; transferred to Arkansas; was expected to be their only starting CB to return
- Eli Ricks- 5 star CB; transferred to Bama
- Navonteque Strong- #1 Juco LB last year; played in rotation; hasn’t announced
- Landon Jackson- Top 125 national DL; was just a freshman but transferred to Arkansas
- They are getting hit hard at WR: 5 have transferred or are in portal and at least 3 are former 4 stars; 4th was top player in Mississippi
Devonta Lee, Alex Adams, Trey Palmer, Koy
Moore, and Deion Smith…Palmer to
Nebraska, Smith to Akron, and I think the
other 3 are undecided

They also lost Stingley, their best CB that replaced Stingley and Ricks (Flott), their MLB, their best DT, their #1 RB, their WR who played QB in the bowl game, and two OL to either the NFL or out of eligibility.

Wow. This really is the new normal isn't it? Roster management going to make it impossible to follow as a whole. We can barely keep up with our Big Orange. Going to make preseaon predictions even more meaningless.

Not me. Too much crime in Miami. Not worth the hassle.
The mountains are very nice around Fayetteville.

Oh I agree! I lived in Miami for 3 long years & hated it. But different strokes for different folks - just saying there's other reasons to choose or not choose a job change than just the actual job.

I have to say that the ground level “ luxury box” is the dumbest thing ever. At some venues, they are located where the team totally blocks your view…

Doesn’t Jerry’s World have those? I think it’s more about seeing the game/product at eye level. Cowboys players come through the crowd from their locker room. Agree that it’s not the best seat in the house.

Makes it less enjoyable for me. I understand when a player leaves because of playing time, but cases like Henry T from UT to Bama, or the three year starter @ CB, Brooks , from Arkansas to LSU, are different. Players who've been starting and playing full time should have to at least leave the conference if they want to transfer IMO.

Josh Heupel looks back at first season with Vols after winning coaching award

Just read this article. Coach Josh Heupel is an actual Tennessee Football Coach! He is cut from the same cloth as the great coaches. I truly believe that he will do great things for the Tennessee Volunteers! I am all kinds of fired up. He speaks truthfully and plainly. He is the kind of Coach that parents should want their son to play for. He will instill good values and a winning mentality. He understands Tennessee Volunteer football. I hope that he is the coach here until he retires as the winningest coach in Tennessee history. I see great things in store with him at the helm.

Maybe just a little fired up right now.
15-0 to infinity…🤠
