Joey Aguilar's Father Thanks Former Quarterback Nico Iamaleava For Leaving Tennessee

I say that it's about time that we found our Johnny Football, Baker Mayfield, or Stetson Bennett.

Baker Mayfield is the first guy I thought of when I first watched tape of JA.

Jose Aguilar, the father of Joey, recently spoke with On3's Pete Nakos to share his thoughts on the situation and revealed that he and his family carried no ill-will towards Iamaleava and his camp. In fact, he expressed gratitude towards the former Tennessee quarterback.


“We don’t have any problems with Nico,” said Aguilar's father. “If anything, it’s thank you. Joey is in a great spot. That’s what I would say, thank you. He did what he decided to do. Everything that happened, happened. I think it’s clear who won the trade. Look at the fans and the stats. Everything happens for a reason.

He ain't the only one that is thankful Nico left.

How bout them Utes?

If/when we make a playoff run, this will definitely be a 30 30 episode. I am.happy that Joey A is getting an opportunity that most people dream about.

Daddy Aguilar raised a fine young man. We are lucky to have his son as our QB.

Joey is in a unique position to move up the list of famous UT QB's with a win Saturday. Rock star status awaits.

Definitely would move him into Ice Man tier

Even better, we have our Joey Aguilar

Well, we saw how Nico handled Georgisa's defense and it was not good Joey will do much better this year.

Mr. Aguilar sees the hand of God in the circumstances that led his son to Tennessee. I submit that Vol Nation could benefit from the same clarity. Nico wasn't your spouse, so stop treating him like he cheated on you and betrayed you. Let the offense and wounding go. The beautiful story that God writes in your life will not always be sunshine and roses. We must remember that sometimes the rain will bring destruction, but it always brings growth. In the end, however, everything works out for our good. I think we can all agree that Nico's time at Tennessee was meant for just a season. A season that set us up for the right time when we would finally get a quarterback who appreciates his opportunity and those who cheer for him. Everything has happened as it should have, and I am grateful that Nico has found a new home. I applaud you, Mr. Aguilar. Thank you for bringing a measure of perspective.

That’s some ancient wisdom . Great post .

How does Pete Nakos seem to wind up bringing the dirt?
