New Tennessee QB Brian Maurer got off to a great start against Georgia on Saturday night, and breathed new life into the Vols program. Despite the loss, Maurer reached out to fans to show his appreciation and vow to keep working.

“Vol Nation, Thank you for always showing up and supporting us,” he tweeted. “You guys have no idea how much you mean to us, I promise that as a team we are working to get back on the right track.
Please continue to show up and support us, Thank you.”


The kid is a gamer and his drive and fire is infectious. I have been high on this kid since his Elite 11 invitation. He has that competitive IT factor we have been needing for a LONG time. We could have us a good one here Nation.

We shall see.

Classy kid. I already like him.

Sweet. He looked a lot better than I thought he would as a freshman against a VERY good GA team. Looking forward to seeing his progress going forward!

Now we're talking, a great young man, a guy that actually is giving 100% for UT-and a young man, when we see him on National Television, representing UT, we will not be ashamed, but rather we'll be very Proud.

No need for thanks......we should be thanking him for giving fans some excitement and some scoring.

Exhibited reading for meaning: I will give my all for Tennessee.

K-town will be tweeting shortly for JG... hoping he updates the stats too.

It's encouraging to see him take command as a TF. He will take his lumps but I do believe he'll win us some games. The future is bright with him and Bailey.

I am happier and more confident about the rest of the season today after a loss to Georgia than I was after the win against UTC. Inserting Maurer changed the offense, which changed the defense. That looked like a totally different team.

The coolest part of last night’s ESPN telecast was showing Maurer’s mom and the lady beside her being thrilled and wiping tears after those TD passes.

Maurer has no fear...NONE...He is cool under pressure but is still young and will get even better with time...I loved watching his mom react when he scored those 2 td's...He's a good kid and we are lucky to have him...Just keep the faith and let him develop.

 

[VolInNW]

But, but his QB rating! And the analytics. And JG’s stats....but.....but.

Nothing like a "proud Mom" moment.

I will say though kudos to JG for supporting BM during the game, readily coming in for BM when needed, and not sitting on the bench by himself and sulking. What he is going through can't be easy because he so very badly wanted to be the QB to start UT's return to prominence, so thanks, JG, for being a team player.
