Believe what you want, I’m not going to convince you. You hb haters are the ones I don’t understand. I’d back anyone that made my team their first choice over someone that picked me after his first choice booted him. Then you guys make baseless claims about armstrength and reading the field but your second hand qbs have proven to not be good and you defend them.
Funny you mention Jackson. That kid is further from seeing the field than these guys think Bailey is. He literally throws 5 yard passes. About 10 to 12 a game. Not saying he isn't good but SEC you would think they would have more experience. Look at Bryce Young, Hayes King etc. JG from memory never threw the ball much in HS either
Look at their QB passing stats. Look al the points left off the board becauthe can no throw accurate deep passes. Three turnovers yesterday. Complete confusion in the second quarter last week and they have not played against a SEC team. Offense put the defense in terrible situations in both games. You bet we should have won by more than 10 points yesterday but the offense blew at least 4 easy opportunities. If you really think the QBs have played well the last two weeks, you know very little about football. I really didn’t want to go there, but you keep refusing to realize the facts.
It's farther from a sure thing if you don't get a chance to play. I think Hooker and Bailey should see a bunch of reps against Tech. Giving Milton a ton of reps against Tech makes no sense to me. I can say for sure if Bailey had been throwing to them wide open receievers we would have scored a TD both times more than likely. Now the defense may or may not have give him the same look. But if Milton can't hit open guys you will see SEC defenses scheme his weaknesses as well and exploit them. I think what might work best is a mix of Hooker and Bailey until one emerges as the clear leader. No doubt all qb's should play against Tech. GBO!!!!!
I agree that we should try to get Hooker and hopefully Bailey reps against Tech. I doubt Heupel is ready to move on from Milton entirely but he’s banged up anyway and there’s no reason to play him. Hooker starts, gets us up 30+ and then bring in Bailey the rest of the way. So Bailey most likely isn’t playing because he’s either (1) not as good as the others in practice; or (2) isn’t a good fit for the offense. Now #2 might mean he doesn’t run well enough but it might also be he just isn’t picking it up well enough between the ears. I’m thinking it has to be #2 as the kid has talent. Regardless, if there’s any decision we should have have trust in Heupel to make it would be evaluating QBs. I’m not saying he is infallible but let’s give him time to work it out. I trust him infinitely more than I did Pruitt on this same subject.
