Interesting Interview by a QB coach on Guarantano

JG isn’t the entire problem with the offense. Clearly the line is hot garbage. I still wonder why a roll out package wasn’t developed to get him away from direct pressure.

JG is a serviceable quarterback. He will do for what we need out of a quarterback. Another year in the strength and conditioning program, as well as film study, will pay dividends.

His bias makes him look dumb. There are some pretty legit critiques of JG, but some of his are ridiculous.
Oh, I agree, he is far from a perfect qb, but bearded vol is like a kid with bad reading comprehension, he pays attention to inconsequential stuff as it was important.

I love how you act like he has never had a multi touchdown game, he has had four, all against sec defenses, this year. But you act like he is the only player that has been inconsistent this year. Your trope is a joke.

I love how you act like he didn't zero TDs in 3/11 games that he played the majority of, one of which being against a paltry ETSU defense, while only managing a single TD against the powerhouses of Charlotte and UTEP.

So again, was the rest of the team lighting it up? How many running backs got 100 yard games? How many rushing yards did they have? Jg while not perfect is Far far far from the most glaring deficiency on the offense, honestly he would be the last position needed to change.

When bama swapped from Jalen to tua was that because the line couldn't run block, pass protect? No, it's because they had excellent players in every other position and an upgrade at QB was the only step that would make them better. If you truly think the record changes for the positive with any other qb, you obviously dont understand football then, At least not successful football practices.

This is why you can't be taken seriously, any criticism of JG is instantaneous deflection to anyone else, as if in your mind he is incapable of shouldering any burden of responsibility, even though the QB touches the ball on every single play, and is the one player who literally affects every aspect of the offense with his play.

It's like this, when your car is out of gas and wont start, I'd doesnt matter how many new tires you put on it, it wont go any faster.

What does anything happening at Alabama, have to do with what we saw on the field this year? Tua is a better QB than Jalen, plain and simple, in every aspect of being a QB; Saban plays the best player for the position.

My thoughts on JG: the kid is very tough and competitive, and he has a good arm. With that being said, he has horrible pocket presence (not presents), and he is not mobile as a passer or a runner. I think he could fit what Pruitt wants to do offensively, but he is not progressing like he should. He is not getting much help from the rest of the offense, especially the O line. I'd grade him out with a D as far as his development to this point.

It's very simple, does replacing JG and only him change the record? Does it change the run game production? Does it change the o line struggles? No. Fix those then worry about the minor problems the qb has. It's called an order of operations and you obviously have no clue how to structure decisions with differential priorities.

And your defense of JG is like serving someone a dog turd sandwich, but regaling the fact that the tomatoes are local organically grown, and the bread was made from hand-milled grain and baked by your own mother.

I love how people bring up JG stats and make him out to be one of the best in the SEC when he clearly is much closer to the bottom than the top. What stood out to me from the stats posted in here is the number 12 as in 12 TD passes in a 12 games season. That's an average of 1 TD per game. Wow incredible numbers, yes let's hope this over whelming display of low level talent will lead this team for the next two years.

Is he the biggest deficiency? It's very simple, why are you not preaching about the inanities of nathan niehaus or drew Richmond? Because you are intellectually lazy and go for the easy target, it's getting old.

I mean I guess. I just think they will try and persuade otherwise considering we don’t have enough scholarship QBs.
Whatever happened to Burt Shotton. Barton Fink, Bart Starr, or whatever his name was. A preferred walk on I thought we got about the same time as Chryst last year.

He does it well.
The other players miss the blocks.
That has noting to do with reading the defense.
Its heart and execution by the line and backs.
So your telling me that he sees the blind side rusher and never looks his way? Well that's a whole new problem that I didn't even realize he had. He knows it, sees it pre snap but thinks the guy is a ghost and cant tackle him. hmmmmmm

But, but, he had multiple games with multiple touchdowns!


which they don't realize meant that he had multiple games without a td pass

Poor pocket presence, and slow decision making. His inability to read a defense is exacerbated by poor oline play, but he's never going to be behind an Alabma-level offensive line to negate that issue.



When he eats sacks like these, which he did several times this year, those are on him, not the line.

It is hard to read a defense when he is on his back. Tennessee has offensive line issues and until those get fixed it does not matter who the QB is.
w/o an Offensive Line, no QB can operate. Our OL was truely Offensive. It stunk. It's all been said here. Good coaching can work for overachievers. Blah, blah. Need more overachievers. When Vandy owns us, our ship has sunk.

JG isn't the biggest deficiency, but it's so obvious that he holds the offense back
What holds it back more? The most accurate qb in UT history, or the least effective offensive line? Seriously, why are you trying to worry about teaching geometry when the class doesnt even get algebra?

Why? His first option wasn't open, and by the time he looked at his second option, he had a defender in the backfield so he tried to get away. He looked at a second receiver, but felt the pressure and tried to tuck and go. That's a problem with the offensive line. I don't know why you keep using bad examples to make a point

And not once have I said he doesn't have deficiencies, but again if you think any qb behind that line does better, your not paying attention.
