“He will get better in front of big league arms” has destroyed a lot of MLB managers “big moves”

Again, look at 2024 Aguilar vs Clemson.

That’s a bad thing to look at. App States online was getting absolutely abused by Clemson. No QB is doing anything with that kind of oline play. That said this ain’t sexy by any means and at the end of the day it doesn’t have to be sexy now. Hopefully it will be in the fall.

Sounds like from a bunch of people, $$ wasn’t an issue here. Screw any booster (imo) that doesn’t back what our HC thinks is the best option because he didn’t do what they thought was right. That’s how you lose a program and ultimately your job

Boosters are the lifeblood of a football program.

My buddy is an App St grad/season ticket holder. He said Joey is horrible. He was glad to see him leave. Oh well. Hope Heup can "fix" him.

You’ve been on this board for 9 years. You’ve come into contact with 200 UT grads and ticket holders who wouldn’t know the difference if they were watching Canadian football.

I'm not thrilled but Heup has brought Tennessee out of the darkness (getting pummeled year after year against Bama, playoffs, etc) so I'm all in regardless. It was a crappy situation we were in. Just hope Faizon makes it to campus and lives up to the hype. Would love to see this play out in Tennessee's favor with Aguilar lighting it up and Nico benched at some point but I'm fine with an average season. Low expectations for this year, looking forward to brighter days.

I don’t disagree with your logic. The type of people that have the drive to be large boosters though, have huge egos, and long memories. Ask auburn though what happens when you lose your boosters backing as a coach. Or Kentucky when you don’t have any. I hope it works out, and I will be rooting for the kid.

Aguilar had a down year in 2024 with a deadbeat staff and playing from behind thanks to a defense that couldn't stop anything.

He still put up solid numbers while being one of the best in the country at not taking sacks. One of the best in the country at positive play rate and first down rate.

He threw a bunch of picks, but that'll happen when A) you don't have coaching / playcalling and B) you have to throw your way into every game.

Despite all of that, the underlying / predictive numbers suggest that his production, even adjusting for competition was about 12 points better than Nico over the course of last season. His 2023 numbers would've been worth about 30 points more than Nico last season.

My model doesn't usually like G5 quarterbacks, but Aguilar is right there near the top of them, ranking a few spots higher than Rourke pre-Indiana, Pavia pre-Vanderbilt,

Still gotta see if it translates, but there's more here than the typical stats show imo.

Why would boosters be mad at CJH? If they were offering Luke all that money and he still didn’t wanna flip how is that on coach? Lmao and why are they mad coach takes this kid? We tried to throw money around proven QBs, none bit. Did the boosters want to take nobody, maybe boosters should of offered 5 times what Illinois was paying if they wanted Luke so badly lol

Oh I have no idea. I was just responding to the comment, not the principle.
