You should listen to one of the Volquest podcasts a couple weeks back where Austin Price flat out said that Martinez didn't come here because Tyson Helton didn't want him and Pruitt backed Helton up on it.That’s exactly what happened. I didn’t mention Penix at all but you want to try to say they were the same reason. They weren’t.
What happens if Pruitt benches JG for Maurer and Maurer goes out and throws 5 pics?
You simultaneously destroy JG's confidence and standing with the team and potentially ruin the confidence of a kid that just isnt ready yet.
Never mind, if the whole team knows that the best QB is JG and they have no confidence in the others then you risk losing the team.
This is not as simple as just "throw another QB out there".
I am one of those who believes it is humanly impossible that all of our backup QB's suck so bad they can't be given an opportunity to replace a QB that is something like 5-15 as a starter.It's pretty much a condemnation of Shrout and Maurer. Coaching staff is saying they are so far behind and arent even close to ready to compete in the SEC that they will stick with JG as the best hope. High school stats be damned.
Tough not to throw it so hard to try and beat the defense when you are late on the throw before (and if) you see the open receiver, then wait still before actually throwing.JG was late on throws and missed open recievers..
he left at least 21 points on the field..
he needs to trust his receivers and throw them open
where is his touch on the throws this year ? he throws a screen pass like 100mph
Nah, I’d rather not listen to the drama queens who’ve been neutered by this coaching staff. They’ll say anything to get clicks these days because they don’t get any info from this staff.You should listen to one of the Volquest podcasts a couple weeks back where Austin Price flat out said that Martinez didn't come here because Tyson Helton didn't want him and Pruitt backed Helton up on it.
Yes, it is that simple. We just lost to Georgia State and BYU and he played a huge part in both. It's time to change it up.
Both losses were due primarily (like 80%) to the defense. without two complete defensive collapses on Saturday we walk out with a win. and it wasn't JG who allowed Ga St to walk all over them.
JG isnt the best but he is not why we lost those game and certainly didnt play a "huge part".
Turning away ANY blue chip QB prospect under any circumstances is stupid. Martinez is Pruitt's Tajh Boyd.Nah, I’d rather not listen to the drama queens who’ve been neutered by this coaching staff. They’ll say anything to get clicks these days because they don’t get any info from this staff.
But let’s say it true. Does Pruitt listen to HIS OC or just go with the guy who is committed here under a previous staff?

true that...Tough not to throw it so hard to try and beat the defense when you are late on the throw before (and if) you see the open receiver, then wait still before actually throwing.
What I do not understand is if these guys were recruited by UT and on the roster how they are not ready to go out there and lead the team?!?!...If JG goes down then what??...Stupid stupid move by Pruitt but why doesn't it surprise me?Ridiculous. Stands will be half empty. Players and fans could rally around a young guy. Nearly everyone is done with JG, and rightly so.
