Do we have a five way quarterback controversy brewing next year?

In those 3 comparison games, BM threw twice as many explosive plays as JG.... JG actually played more minutes and drives.

JG, JT Shrout, Kasim Hill, Brian Maurer, and Harrison Bailey all battling for the spot next year? Boy, this is going to be fun!

No inside knowledge, just a guess. JG and possibly Shrout will transfer. Hill and Maurer will battle it out for the starting spot and Bailey will redshirt especially if Shrout stays.

Seeing how due to injuries, just a few hours ago, we were down to our 3rd string QB and a stud WR as our only options...I wouldn’t mind if we recruited 5 more. GBO!

Right now he is a 49% passer with 2 TDs and 5ints.

here comes Mr. Selective Stats. No one cares.

That's really odd treatment for someone with a concussion unless it was very, very mild.

Yeah, he had one mild concussion and one minor neck injury (although the neck injury required a lot of checking up on)

Hate to say it, but at this point we should just be hoping that BM’s career doesn’t get cut short due to concussions. He seems prone.

No he doesn't.

How is percentage, TDs, and ints picking selective stats?

Let's compare ypa or qb rating then. JG is better I'm every single passing stat. Lmao

LOL... sure there Pul... er k-town.

I've had one and only one screen name here over the last 13+ years.... when I was right... when I was wrong... when I could say "I told you so"... and when I had to admit I was wrong.

Of course this wouldn't be your first or only lie would it? How many posts have you responded to since saying you'd never respond to me again... twice?:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

My arguments are sound and correct. I don't need backup or alts.
Click to expand...
Your "arguments" are based on selective data picking. You've been wrong consistently. The worst part is that you are too fundamentally dishonest to ever admit it even when it is blatantly obvious.

Recently you disappeared after being wrong. Your alter ego carried water for you though... until that screen name became just as ridiculous.

Just gave you the best head to head comparison between Maurer and JG you could ask for. Both played about half the game vs MSU, UGA, and Bama. The only stat favoring JG was INT's... and that's because he's so risk averse that the offense becomes ineffective and easy to defend.

So what about it? Why in a true head to head comparison does Maurer throw a higher %... higher ypa, ypc.... with more than twice the yards in fewer minutes/drives?

He also ignores that one is a true freshman and the other one is a redshirt junior. Not very sound and correct from where I sit

I miss the days of patience among players. Bobby Bowden kept Florida State rolling by having a red-shirt junior QB playing 2 years every 2 years. Those days are gone and I'm sure someone will transfer.

In year 2 Maurer will also be that much better than what we see now as well.

Completely agree with that. TRUE QB competition is exactly what we need here. May the best man win.


As far as who we personally think will win, i'll agree to disagree. Not a knock on Maurer at all, I love the kid and his grit. I will be behind whoever wins the battle regardless. GO VOLS

Nobody ignores that fact and what does it have to do with this season? As a QB, regardless of classification, we have 1 that turns the ball over EVERY quarter he plays, 1 that has turned it over early in the year, lost his job because of it and has played pretty error free the last 3 games except for the 1 huge mistake and we have 1 who is so raw the coaches simply don't trust yet. Why does what year they are matter THIS season? Most coaches play the QB that doesn't turn the ball over and has good control of the offense. If BM continues to give the ball to the other team he will find himself on the bench for much longer than just this year regardless of how he looks on his 5 completions every 10 throws, period. Health is a concern as well but we have some that believe getting knocked out of every game you play, usually before the 1st half is perfectly ok and was just a fluke. JG is our best option at this point and time for this season, that may change with a poor outing but right now he's the best we've got. Our team is not good enough to overcome costly turnovers vs anyone as evidence of our 3-5 record.

If we were to win out impressively with JG at QB do you think he would really transfer? I just can't see a 3 year SEC starter on an up and coming team leave out. That doesn't mean he's the best QB on the roster either, I just think it would be hard to give all of that up for Rutgers. If another SEC school or big time Power5 wanted him then maybe but I don't see that happening either. Those saying we can't win out with him at the position are wrong I believe but that's all just opinion on both sides.

If JG comes back next year and gets so much as 0.1 seconds of time as the starter I will be pausing my UT fanship of 50+ years until said player has left the building. I'm too old to watch that person derail another Volunteer season.

Everything when the RS Jr is ineffective.
As a QB, regardless of classification, we have 1 that turns the ball over EVERY quarter he plays,

While moving the O and producing roughly twice the yardage in comparable playing time... while learning on the job not to make mistakes with the ball.
1 that has turned it over early in the year, lost his job because of it and has played pretty error free the last 3 games except for the 1 huge mistake
Click to expand...
Lying... again. I don't give you credit for possibly being mistaken... since you never admit you are mistaken.

JG didn't lose his job for turning the ball over. He lost his job because he missed too many opportunities down field. Straight from Pruitt's mouth. In a weird way, he lost his job for not taking the chances that very likely would have caused him to commit MORE INT's. To the minor extent that you are correct... JG turned the ball over when he "tried" to do what they asked.

and we have 1 who is so raw the coaches simply don't trust yet.
Click to expand...
Seems so as odd as it is for them to trust a guy who has never gotten it done and not a guy who's an unknown.

Most coaches play the QB that doesn't turn the ball over and has good control of the offense.
Click to expand...
Not if they do not effectively move the O, take advantage of open opportunities, and make the plays that win games. JG failed to do that in 3 seasons as a starter... that's why he was benched.

If BM continues to give the ball to the other team he will find himself on the bench for much longer than just this year regardless of how he looks on his 5 completions every 10 throws, period.
Click to expand...
True. And he's still a better risk at this point than JG. If you play BM you may fail while trying. With JG... you'll fail because he won't "try" to hit plays that "look" risky.

Health is a concern as well but we have some that believe getting knocked out of every game you play, usually before the 1st half is perfectly ok and was just a fluke.
Click to expand...
You can' t help being dishonest, can you? There are at least 3 lies embedded in that one statement.

JG is our best option at this point and time for this season, that may change with a poor outing but right now he's the best we've got.
Click to expand...
No he isn't. One game doesn't "prove" that any more than one half proved it for Maurer. JG has played exactly ONE productive game this year. He "managed" in the previous three games being statistically swamped by the guy you claim shouldn't play and stank it up prior to that.

Our team is not good enough to overcome costly turnovers vs anyone as evidence of our 3-5 record.
Click to expand...
No. It isn't good enough to tolerate a QB who can't find and hit opportunities down field.... and that's why Pruitt finally agreed to switch.

Maurer may not be the answer. But it is very, very, very unlikely that JG is.

Nobody seems to care what you say. We'll believe the evidence of our eyes, not your cherry picking of stats.

Hey how about that JG win/Loss record...How about posting that?...How about you do that right now...We'll wait...I see you came out of your hole to run that mouth of yours again..I was hoping we were done with your silliness after JG got benched and would still be if Maurer hadn't gotten hurt....The transfer portal awaits!
