If Tennessee wins 10-11 games i think HH will be invited on television as a Heisman finalist.

Tee Higgins is still a UT fan

That's a good article but man does it need an editor/proofreader.

Wether or not he wins the Heisman, I think we all need to take a minute and realize the specialness of the talent we are watching. We have been blessed to see some unbelievable quarterbacks at Tennessee, but the career of Hendon Hooker is maybe one of the best. The consistency, decision making, and execution are beyond rare. Enjoy every remaining game. You don’t see this quality of play very often.

Tennessee is so lucky that he came to Tennessee. Hendon Hooker has helped bring about the rebirth of Tennessee football.

Watching what we’ve seen of Milton too this season, I think HH gave him the room to step back and regroup maybe. I’m not only excited about HH but also that our future looks bright after he leaves too.

One thing I love about him is he never puts the ball in harms way. He doesn't throw into double coverage. He will throw a 50/50 ball for McCoy or Tillman to go get, but he rarely forces the ball into coverage.

Grandad was a character. Too bad he isn't here to see this. But at least his parents and sibs can see him now. Terrific kid. He'd be worthy of being Tennessee's first Heisman winner.

Living in Roanoke, VA, I hear the Virginia Tech fans pissin' & moanin' EVERY DAY about "losing" Hendon Hooker to Tennessee. Their team; Their program, & Their fans all seem to be in some state of mourning this year.....

Never heard of Dennis Dodd of CBS before, but this is truly an exciting piece of journalism. Thank you Mr. Dodd. We need you to move to ESPN. Soon.

HH picked a good time to leave that dying program.

Who would have thought that in Huepel's second year, and keep in mind only a third of the way into that second year, CBS would be dropping this:

"The Volunteers are exciting again. Neyland Stadium is selling out. There is a hint of the old days in the air by the banks of the Tennessee River."

He has and he is paired with a coach that in my opinion knows how to manage QBs and call great plays. We haven’t had that since Cutcliffe

I totally agree with your statement but I would add that his coming to UT and having Josh H as his coach has brought a rebirth for HH as well.

Yeah Justin Fuente was a lousy head coach

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Tee Higgins is still a UT fan

He’s a Vol at heart but Butch pretty much forced him to decommit due to being a terrible HC.

I think Tee would have played for Tennessee if Josh Heupel and Staff were in charge then.

Kiffin could do both of those things. Still, I didn't like him then and I don't like him now, but he is good with QB's and playcalling.

I agree. About 3/4 of the way through it completely derailed lol
