….. prove. me. wrong.

Don’t have to. He’s the 3rd string QB behind Milton.

So Hooker > Milton > Bailey

Bailey must really frikkin’ suck that we are in week 8 and he still can’t beat out Milton.

Seriously, Bailey can’t run the offense at the tempo required. If you want Bailey as your QB, then just bring back Gump as well because that’s the kind of offense required to apparently fit his skill set.

At this point with so many injuries and so little depth, the hurry up might do more harm than good. Might be smartbto slownitndown with HB for a couple games till Hooker can go.

Maybe after Milton running out of bounds to end the game may/hopefully moved Milton to 3rd and HB to 2nd.

I’m a huge HB fan. saw him play twice in HS. I think he’ll be great in time. If he has to play he’ll survive it but sadly he’s not as ready as the others. The game is still moving to fast for him…or he’s processing too slowly. Take your pick but either way we won’t see Bailey unless the other 2 get hurt.

If other teams use the flopping strategy then he will be fine

We know exactly what Milton is. He's shown what he is at Michigan and then repeatedly here. Even without the fan/trash incident, the way he ended our game is being put on blast for just how... utterly Tennessee football it was. Complete lack of awareness.

And he'll still get 1st String reps over Bailey. A guy that Heupel seems to think sucks even after he did everything right in the Spring Game and got like 6 passes late off the bench.

Bailey won't get a shot to prove anything. He'll transfer out, likely to a rival, and light us up. That's the Tennessee way.

Bailey may not want to use another game of eligibility? As he is sure to leave. Why screw up future eligibility to play elsewhere when not appreciated or coveted at Tennessee by Huepel and staff. Just my opinion.
I would think he would want a chance to prove what he can do, in order to audition to transfer destinations.

Hard to do RPO without the R
Heupel has made this system work without a mobile QB in the past, but only when he’s had a great OL. But we don’t have that. Therefore we must have a running QB. You can’t make this offense work with both a bad OL and a statue QB. I get that Milton will be a tough sell to this fanbase after the last play of the game, but throwing Bailey out there against Bama’s defense behind this OL is setting him up to be killed.
