'15 NM QB Zach Gentry

I still get a kick out of seeing someone Gentry's size running away from kids half his size. Don't think Town or Rosen sport that size/speed combination.

I meant throwing the football. Accuracy, spin, velocity, pressure situations etc..

We have Hurd, Scott, and Paulk so I'm not too concerned about him running the ball all that often
 
That may be true, but if the keeper is there, I'd like to see a QB who doesn't hesitate to to take what the defense gives him.

If the DE or blitzing LB is crashing down on the RB, you got to let the QB make him pay for it.

Thats fine. You can have that and still not have to heavily rely on using it as an option. I want a QB, when needed, can pull it down and pick up 6-8 yards when needed. We don't have to have a QB run it 20 times for 80-100 yards a game to be successful though.
 
Reading comprehension is a dangerous thing.I said we have the weapons on paper not had.Hell I like to argue so bring it if you feel it.All I said was NOW we have the weapons.But in NO way would I call the option we ran last year a weapon.In fact as I said nicer earlier it was damn embaressing.Everybodys got their own opinion,I'm fine with you guys looking for the next Tebow,all I'm saying is if we have that style offense I personally will not be interested.I'm not a "follow the latest fad "or a follower at all as far as that goes.I, like you like what I like.I used to watch nothing but NFL,I like a QB that's A QB and leaves the running to the RB's.That's me,don't give a damn if it means a NC if we have a running QB.Won't like it, won't watch it,won't celebrate it as a Vols fan.Guess I'm stubborn but at the end of the day I am what I'll always be, no confusion.When I wake up everyday I'll know what I like and who I am,I don't need to remember what I like today.I'd like to sum up this rant with'GIVE ME A DAMN QB THAT CAN THROW AND RUNS AS LITTLE AS NECESSARY"Attack at will.

So you are a pro-style offense fan, not a Vols fan

That sounds about right. If you wouldn't watch the Vols or celebrate them winning the NC because they had a running QB then I'm not sure how else it could be taken. He did say he was stubborn (understatement of the year) but that's barely even a fan at that point, scratch that, it isn't being a fan if you wouldn't watch or cheer for them anymore. To each their own...I guess.

So you didnt watch or celebrate the 98 NC? I prefer using a FB, but it doesnt mean I wouldnt be happy if we won a bunch of games without one.

You see,thats the difference between us.I can handle you having an opinion that differs from mine but if you don't like mine it's not OK. Bad news,your approval means nothing to me.I have been a Vols fan since the early 70's.Being a fan of something doesn't mean you have to accept whatever they do cause your a fan. I became a fan because of a style of play and have been loyal for over 40 years.If you believe that means you should accept whatever thay do then hey that's your choice.The problem I have is when someone tells me how I should think.It makes me think,I never told them how they should think,where's this coming from?I know where this kind of thinking usually comes from.Any suggestions as to what foods I should like?Hows this any different than fire Martin or I'll never watch BB again?I'll always accept your opinions even if I disagree,to each his own. I'd worry more about how simple minded I looked because someone disagreed with my way of thinking,but hey that's me.

No one is telling you how to think or act. I just don't see how you can still be a fan of a team if you wouldn't watch, like, or cheer for said team bc they changed their style. But I guess that makes sense because you said you became a fan because of style of play, so I assume that means not just because it was UT. Either way you it's your opinion and you're entitled to it.

If this is your opinion -

"That's me,don't give a damn if it means a NC if we have a running QB.Won't like it, won't watch it,won't celebrate it as a Vols fan"

Then well,... :ermm:

I can't be the only one who finds it extremely ironic that the guy preaching about reading comprehension can barely form a coherent sentence or articulate a thought so that someone could...what's the word.....ah, yeah, "comprehend" what's being said.

dont know about u guise. i enjoy reading attacks on one another, specially in a year where we desperately need a top shelf qb.

i scored in the bottom 10Th percentile on VN standardized testing in both math and reading. let me be the first to say, who cares?

are we gonna land this kid or what?
