Backup QB?

[DrDave]

What are the options if our ONE QB goes down?

 

[508mikey]

no better than the starter as long as Larry Scott is there

 

[JettVol]

McBride

 

[KBVol]

McBride.

He kneels on all snaps though so..might be rough

Seeing as we haven’t had a TD in a month does it matter who’s under center?

 

[LordBolton]

McBride.

So we will lose less yardage than a sack or a handoff with no blocking? Give that man the ball!

 

[BootheelVol]

We need to put a WR in place of the QB and just snap the ball directly to them. It will be the only time a WR has been open all year...

 

[JoAllan]

McBride.

That is only if he sees a flag anywhere in sight.

Doesn't matter.

While I agree - I think Currie should tell Butch to fire Scott now, and call the plays himself - just to erase any doubt

 

[508mikey]

And iirc Ole Miss is in that situation right now -- Patterson out for the season

AMEN... and he should tell Butch that if we don't score at least 45 against KY Butch himself is fired! No more of this: 1st down- Run up the middle... no gain, 2nd down- run to the left... no gain, 3rd down- incomplete pass down the right sideline... caught out of bounds (or dropped, or through the receiver's hands) on third and long, 4th down- Punt. Like most VOL fans, I'm sick of watching this repugnant offense! Off my soapbox now. GBO!!!

Is Juan Jennings any better? Didn't he used to play QB in HS?

 

[Fijivol72]

Worrying about the back up QB is like rearranging the chairs on the Titanic. As long as Jones is HC we are going down, coaches don't want to coach and player's don't want to play.

He did, but I dont think he even shows up at the games anymore

You can't do that this week because UK has that play book. Just ask DD.

Does it really matter? We haven't scored an Offensive TD in so long...I've forgotten what its like. General Neyland must be rolling over in his grave. Botch Jones is slowly replacing Dooley as the worst UT coach ever. Makes me sick to even type that. FIRE HIM NOW!!!!:realmad:

A one-handed QB isn't the answer.

Hell I'd run the wildcat 100%. Put JK or TB in there and gooooooo! about big boys up front and dare someone to get in the way.

..Maybe it is!..?...

JG is going to be good. He has fire. However, at this point, put them all in for a series or two and find out who the gamers are.

I got a chuckle out of this
