That's awesome that he can throw the ball vertically. Hard to win with a horizontal passing game

Rewatched the Florida game yesterday and I can’t believe how blinded I was to how bad Nico was. Couldn’t hit a receiver deep to save his life.

That game went to overtime when we should’ve won by double digits.

Watching Nico play was about hope for the future.

You'd watch him overthrow a receiver or miss a player wide open and chalk it up to inexperience.

I kept waiting on him to put everything together against a good team and it just never happened.

Unless you count his first game against Iowa, ( I don't because I felt they were overrated), he never had that "coming out" game I kept expecting.

The closest I saw was rhe first half of the Georgia game. And that was mainly first few scripted series. Otherwise he was underwhelming.


He has all the physical tools a qb needs, but he can't grasp the subtle stuff of being a qb.

Heupel had to water down the offense the same way he did with Milton the year before.

And I don't blame Heupel for his lack of development either, he had 2 years to learn this offense and it was too much for him.

To be fair, we have also struggled in the diagonal passing game.

Honestly he was average in that game as well. Led us to a 35-0 win, but only threw for 150.
His rushing stats were good and the final score made it look dominant, but the James Pearce pick six and the fumble recovery at the 2 yard line made that score a lot more lopsided than it really was.

Really is funny to look back on how in denial we all were at the time.

Some of the texts to my friend about how “Nico played pretty bad tonight, but……” are just…… man. I look like a deranged cultist in some of them lmao

He was really bad in SEC games outside of Vandy .. but there was a hope that the flashes he showed would become real and he would develop into the promised QB this year .. He would have been much better this year just due to game slowing down and system becoming his second nature .. but new system again with few months to learn it at UCLA ? That is going to hurt his growth.

Milton could grow it vertically better than just about anyone. But the WRs kept dropping the passes. Hopefully the WRs have improved significantly this year.

excited for some joey football

Wow, i’ve been waiting on a thread for a while to talk about this dude. Thank goodness someone finally created one

That overthrow to squirrel in the 2nd quarter was so deflating. Everyone and their mother saw squirrel break open on the deep shot and Neyland would’ve probably broken a sound record if he hit it, the collective “ahhhhhhh oh…” in the stadium was wild

Well I think some of us defended him for good reason. He was just a redshirt freshman and negavols often need to be silenced.

Tyler Bray, JG, Joe Milton, and Nico - Overthrow U - but we look cool doing it.

 

[BigSteve09]

has anyone talked about how this guy came from UCLA and that's the place where our old QB went (I think?)

No, nobody has talked about that, really good point.

I mean, most of us on here were temporarily big fans of Derek Dooley, Butch Jones, Jeremy Pruitt, and Jarrett Guarantano too, lol.

Seems like the “negas” have been right more than wrong about coaches and certain players in the last 15 yrs or so.

Yep. And I remember you better not say any critical thing about them. And here we are
