True Freshman Brian Maurer? RS Freshman JT Shrout?Harrison Bailey is definitely the future. Wish that was now. All QBs from last year proved they aren’t the guy.
True Freshman Brian Maurer? RS Freshman JT Shrout?
but True Freshman Harrison Bailey definitely is??? You don't know that.
But Id i sure like to find out what he's capable of in the game. And Maurer.
But Pruitt won't let that happen
UGA is just a great team and JG hasn't really done anything against great teams in his time at Tennessee.
He's had some great games against good teams, but not nothing against great teams.
I do not understand Pruitt not getting Maurer or Shrout or Bailey mop up time here.
We need our other Qb’s to get real game experience. There is every reason to take out JG for the benefit of making the team better.
Maybe he is afraid they will make jg look bad?
What’s most concerning is that none of the young QBs has shown enough to really challenge for the starting job.
UT should be able to beat UK even with JG, and we're not beating Bama with any QB on this roster. So leave JG in for now, and spend that time getting the next QB as ready as you can. Make the switch after the Bama game, and go from there. The O/U is back to 5.5, and UT isn't winning the SEC this year anyway, so use those last 5 games to set up for 2021.
Go Vols.

I apologized in a different thread for my constant defending of JG. You’re not alone here.I have to say, I've been the leader of the JG isn't THAT bad bandwagon. I don't even think today was entirely on him with the abysmal performance by our offensive line.
HOWEVER, I am finding it hard to get excited about the rest of the season if he is still our QB, which he almost certainly will be. We're getting murdered by good teams in YEAR 3. I'm sorry, but I just can't get excited about anything with him at QB anymore. Even if he gives us the best chance at 6-4, so what? What about 6-4 is exciting?
Time to play someone else and just see what the hell happens.
