best case scenario for HB. coaches put him 3rd on depth chart. he refuses to play more than 4 games and transfers to UGA where he teams up with Gilbert and D.Washington and leads the dawgs to the natty.Milton was a failure at Michigan. Bailey is better andaa
Or the dummies just wrote this post. Milton failed at Michigan. Bailey is twice as good and a 5 star. This idiot coach will probably pick Milton and it is bye bye Bailey. Some one will get him and he will end up beating are ass. Typical TN BS. It never stops.

With all due respect, neither Milton nor Bailey have done anything, yet, to allow a confident opinion that they are even SEC level QBs. Milton didn't "fail" at Michigan any more than Burrows was a failure before his transfer. Similarly, Bailey has done very little at the college level to crow about, yet. Both were high school stars with great college potential --nothing more, yet. There is no way to say today that either one is better than the other based on where they've been. We'll know more about that by October, I hope.
Further, to call Heupel an "idiot coach" is, with all due respect, idiotic. This coach was a winner as a player and a winner as a coach everywhere he has been. I don't know that he is the answer at Tennessee, but I sure will defer to his ability to evaluate a player long before acknowledging the greatness of a 5 star high school ranking by some group of self appointed talent evaluators who don't have real jobs.
Finally, the QB who actually has produced (for limited periods) in college is Hooker and he shouldn't be counted out of this race quite yet. GBO!
I think his skill set would fit Bama’s offense betterbest case scenario for HB. coaches put him 3rd on depth chart. he refuses to play more than 4 games and transfers to UGA where he teams up with Gilbert and D.Washington and leads the dawgs to the natty.
Bailey's simply a winner and with very limited live game reps has shown excellent field vision. In Heupel's system the QB should have a good idea where the ball is going prior to the snap.......identifying the mismatch, counting the players in the box, etc.....the quickest and most consistent decision-maker should get the nod and it's gonna take several games to identify the best one
You cannot run like that in the SEC and last. You will NOT last. The linebackers are too good at squaring up on you in space. If you run, you have to make sure you don't get hit, like Vince Young, Dobbs, Manziel... etc.. You have to be more illusive. You cannot run people over in the SEC. They will hurt you.
Gilbert isn’t at UGA anymorebest case scenario for HB. coaches put him 3rd on depth chart. he refuses to play more than 4 games and transfers to UGA where he teams up with Gilbert and D.Washington and leads the dawgs to the natty.

Great comment, agree completelyA fair assessment and I've felt Milton was the guy since Heupel signed him.
Milton forced throws at MI because of pressure and simply needing to make SOME play. Harbaugh did him zero favors by not simplifying the offense/routes to account for a "not ready for the B1G time" offense line. Classic Harbaugh, ignore the "big uglies" and get your a$$ handed to you on the offensive and defensive line. Trenches.... still matter a lot in the B1G and Harbaugh continues to lose them every year.
So, how's the UT O-Line? Is our QB going to be bobbing and weaving and rolling and improvising? Let's be honest, if the O-Line sucks we're screwed.
I want us to be "QB U" with Heupel but in the SEC that means being "OL U" first. Are we? The "stars" said we were but.......
He's talented no doubt and CJH has really been a good thing for him, but alot of those passes in his film will be interceptions with faster and more physical dbs. I've seen him practice and I came away impressedHonestly, it was decent film, but not top tier qb play.
1. A couple of those aacks he should have thrown the ball away.
2. Need to develop a little more finesse on the shorter throws. It's hard for a wr to catch a 95 mph fastball from 20 feet.
3. Decision making on some of the mid length throws. More than a few times he threw into double coverage, when he had receivers open on other routes.
4. I hope he has gotten better on deep throws of 25+ yards, because he overthrew a lot of those.
He has arm talent, and can keep a defense honest with his legs. Maybe CJH has worked with him enough to get rid of some of those issues. And he's definitely light years better than what we had with JG.
Jmo which doesn't mean squat.
I can’t find a similar video with all snaps but here’s a highlight video. So of course It will only be the great plays (and annoying music)
Not sure he is a good fit for Tennessee. He looked at two, sometimes three receivers before throwing the ball.
Remember this is just highlights, not bad plays tooI'm probably in the minority here but I think Hooker is the better option. Better, more elusive runner. About even on accuracy, maybe advantage Hooker. Milton definitely has the stronger arm though.
