JG ain't the guy if you're talking about leading us to a title. But we don't have a guy that will do that. JG is the guy if you want us to have the best possible season this year though. Is what it is

I believe JG has a losing record as a starter..

How do the Vols close the gap?
“Don’t turn the ball over three times in one half,” Pruitt said. “It’s pretty simple, guys. It ain’t about timeouts. It’s about turning the ball over three times in the second half. It’s about not being able to run the football. It’s about getting off the field on third down. … Those things, we’ve gotta fix.”

QB1 responsible for 4 turnovers and Pruitt is ALL IN on QB1

QB responsible for two of the turn overs--those two blind side sacks in about 1.5 seconds was on the offensive line. I remember the greatest QB in Tennessee history throwing four picks in one half. WE will still go 7/3 with outside chance of 8/2. I firmly believe Ga. is the best team in the SEC.

But it could be deeper what if Bailey just isn’t ready to lead the team at this moment? Georgia has had the number one recruiting class 3 of the last 4 years.. the talent gap isn’t close we are playing our asses off for the lack of equal talent honestly. But JG isn’t the answer I agree there 6-4 maybe 7-3

I agree with DG. 5-5 seems like a solid season for this team. To get there, we need to avoid a hangover against UK. Lose that one and the season will likely go off the rails....and take the recruiting class with it.

The point is he's the most ready, that's why he's playing. People think Pruitt has this like die hard loyalty to JG and it's just laughable.

If he doesn’t get other Qb’s some game time action, after this performance , he does have some kinda strange loyalty to JG.

He’s lost my support until he replaces JG. I get that there is higher risk with the back ups but when you know #1 isn’t going to win a game that matters, what difference does it make. The guy has us frozen in Time so long as he gets all the reps.

The vaunted great leach air raid that everyone was raving about after 1 game has crashed and burnt. They scored a whopping 2 today against kentucky. Florida looks great on offense but their D has looked terrible in every game so far this year. But while I knew LSU lost a lot of folks they have had great recruiting classes and their D looks more lost than Mississippi's does. Aside from Bama and Georgia I see no clear cut number 3 yet. Time will tell. GBO!

And Bama gave up 647 yards to Ole Miss

Tennessee offense could not gain 647 yards unopposed.

You may have a point...I'm just pointing out that folks think that UGA and Bama have the top defenses in the SEC and Bama got gashed for 647 yards. UGA has the best defense in the SEC and it's not close...Should be an interesting game between UGA and Bama next Saturday...

Pruitt thinks its 1970 and you win by having a game manager QB...and its ok to have 3 and outs often cuz the defense will keep it close and hopefully we can eke out a win. That is NOT how it's done today. The rules favor the offense to score tons of points. Look at the scores all across college football. He must be coaching based on what his dad did 30-40 years ago. We have literally no chance in hell of coming back in a game down 10 points. An urgent series for us is 1st down run for 2-3 yards. 2nd down another weak run. 3rd down throw short of the sticks and pray for yards after catch...and this plan is implemented down double digits in 2nd half. Does Pruitt know a clock exists? Does he know its 2020 and not 1970?

For whatever reason I though the offensive line was terrible yesterday. JG was bad also but the line was worse JMO I never seen that many illegal procedure calls on one team. In the end when you let a team control the ball that long in a game the defense is going to wilt. You can't be on the field two thirds of the game.

Don't think anybody knows for sure who #2 is right now. That said, whoever it is, he better be able to move and make plays on the run.

JT was reported # 2 a couple of weeks ago. Probably the same today. I would like to see both Maurer and JT get snaps.

I sort of think our oline didn’t play well for the simple fact no team respects our QB play and hasn’t for years now . What Josh Dobbs the last QB we had that other teams respected ? I believe it starts with qb. Ga done whatever they wanted to on defense because teams like Ga , Bama, Fl, ext don’t respect our qb play. Stack the box dial up whatever blitz they want because at the end of the day JG isn’t going to get it done. Yeah he will make a couple good throws here and there but that’s it . I honestly don’t think it matters how many 5* o lineman we have or how many 5* rbs we have or even how many 5* wr we have . At the end of the day it comes down to the qb and if that defense respects him or not and for years we have had this same issue. We can go toe to toe first half but the second half we have no answers . Why? Becuae we haven’t recurited well at qb until we signed Bailey . Hate me , cuss me , call me a negavol . None of it is true . I’ve been watching every game for the last 10 years and we literally haven’t had a elite qb in some time . Until Bailey is ready for prime time this is the way it will be . No defense recspects us and that’s due to the qb play. Even if the oline was able to block well yesterday . Jg would still be throwing duds or not putting his oline in the best spot to let him throw . I love my Vols I never say anything bad but this qb play has to change . Hell my wife hardly knows anything about football but as soon as she sees JG out there she is already telling me what’s going to happen . And it is never good
