You just come in here and talk smack and you've never seen him play. You have no idea what you're talking about.

Says who--You? have you even watched him play?

You can have all americans across the board and if the qb isn't right you're not going to win games in the SEC.

If your going to respond to my post please read it first---I said "MIDSEASON" i didn't say now

I wonder if they would bring in Lamaison midseason once he knows the play book or redshirt him so he doesn't lose a year of elgilbility. last year at sac he had 36 tds and only 8 ints while throwing for all most 3500 yrds. He's better then those 2

You're not going to run consistently with 9 men in the box and if you can't throw the ball there is no reason for the defense to drop their safeties into coverage so they sit and stuff the run. I don't care if you have Earl Campbell, Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith your not going to run...

Lets just say I taught him to throw a football in the first place. I'm Tennessee's newest avid fan since my boy signed with them.

Both Crompton and Stephans have had a chance to go over this systems in the spring. Nicholas is just getting his first taste of it. I wouldn't make any snap judgements in the first few days. Realistically unless Crompton and Stephans fall on their face. Nicholas will probably redshirt and have 3...

Lamaison wasn't there in the spring. he just got there and has barely cracked the play book and you're closing the book on him. Not much for evaluating are you? I know Nicholas personally and he is a great kid. a bull dog who is fearless and will never ever back down. give him a little time...
