JG finished in the lower half of the SEC in almost every statistical category.

Versus the SEC, JG was 10th in completion %, 8th in TD passes, and 12th in yds per game.

KC was not the answer... but neither was JG. If he does not improve significantly, he won't be the starter next fall. They invested this year knowing his shortcomings and hoping he'd improve. Improvement was pretty minimal. In some areas, he regressed. I know your mancrush on JG won't let you see it... but trashing KC deserved or not will not make JG a good QB.

8th completion percentage on the year. Still better than any qb you have supported at 62+ %.

140 rating better than any qb you like

2nd in ints. 5th ypa for the year.

Where did he regress specifically? Are you making up stuff like usual.

He improved in literally every single area. National and local media keep trying to break down this stuff for those slower to pickup on things like you.


He had two bad games this year. About normal for any qb. He was good to great in every other game.

And yet nothing you mention changes the fact that Tennessee was terrible this year and showed almost zero improvement from last year.

Where did he make that argument? You posted stats and he mentioned some other stats that are typically more highly regarded these days. Doesn’t mean they’ll tell a different story because fact is that we suck. But we knew that.

Too bad Pat Mahomes was 13-20 in the BIG12, he is terrible. Matt Ryan too. He was I think 5-7 his last year.

And we all know Jalen Hurts is the great college qb of all time with his 27-2 record. That is why Hurts is starting and going to win the Heisman right?

Huh, that strange. Its almost like coaching and the other players determine wins and losses.

As for the stats, at least 51 on defense is middle of the road. 121 of offense is just... I don’t have the words.

True........as bad as he was.... he got close to a really big year.... but he managed to crap it all up. His BS strength and conditioning and countless injuries.....did him in.

It was the injuries. He would of beat both SC and Vandy if they weren't a mash unit at the end of 2016. There wasn't much depth but the front liners were really good. He had half a football team. I'ts also why i think he was just looking for a way out. This job was too much for Botch.

Except that I haven't supported or not supported any UT QB. I have defended guys from your irrational cultist responses... but I've been critical of KC and JG both.

And that still didn't move the ball or win games. You are an excuse machine though.

Nope. He started getting more time. He actually didn't see much pressure in the Vandy game.

Since you asked, he was less accurate and did worse in managing the pocket and seeing pressure. Do you really and truly think his performance in the Vandy game represented progress?

I think he realized it about 7-8 months before he got canned too..... he knew he was on borrowed time.

I know you are trying to talk rationally to a mad man... but D's figured JG out. That's why in spite of stats with some "good" in them... UT's O didn't move. They knew that he would check down if they gave him an open receiver underneath. They began to realize he wasn't going to look down the middle of the field. He often stared receivers down. His hand signal to the RB almost always meant run.

k-town will never see it... but JG just wasn't hard to defend. That was a major contributor to UT being 13th in the SEC in scoring O and 14th in total O. I would gladly take a QB who was statistically worse but led the O to more scores.... and the team to more wins. But then again... I'm a UT fan and not the fan of a particular player like k-town.

What you're saying is you don't want a game manager..... you want a play maker.👍🏽

Yeah JG was terrible in the Vandy game. He really didn't get much pressure. It was as if he was punch drunk, expecting the big hit. It didn't come several times and he made shat throws. The QB competition will be open in the spring. He just doesn't have it i don't think. He played well until he got hit too many times. Happens to a lot of QB's, David Carr comes to mind.

You forgot you Worley, Dormady lovefests too?

Less accurate? He was above 65% the whole year until he had a bad game. Still finished higher than last year. So being more accurate the whole year is regressing in accuracy?

Feeling pressure and managing the pocket he regressed? Even though you had no credibility anyway this definitely erases any you would have had.
He went from over 5 sacks a game, many his fault, to two. Then the sacks that have happened have been missed blocks.

The Vandy game was bad. Do you really think you measure a players growth off of one game and not the whole year? Or just agendaing like usual. Lord knows even the great Peyton had some stinkers.

All his numbers improved. Some by a lot. Some regression.

He did move the ball and win some games. Not enough of either but as any intelligent person knows he was the only reason we were even in half the games we were in.

What he mentioned made UT look even worse. I wanted to stick with the stats that everyone sees on game day. I'll leave the other stats to the nerds.
