He's gonna surprise us. Bar set is low for him and team, so let's add on another 10% to your numbers but, deduct 10% for INTs.

62% 68%
2900+ yards 3,200
26 TDs 29
12 INTs 10
500 yards rushing 550
8 rushing TDs 10

If he puts up those numbers we are looking at another playoff appearance at least, maybe more

2900+ yards
26 TDs

Anyway, Whats everyone else’s thoughts?

Realistic? Play within the offense and let the stat line be whatever it is. Vandy, Florida, Kentucky and Mississippi State were 13th-16th in conference in rushing defense last season. We play them all and have another three headed monster looking team when it comes to running the ball. It wouldn’t surprise me to run for 3k yards again. Maybe 225 yards a game passing, average over the year, probably means we’re in every game we play. And without having seen a single down? Sure, I’ll say that seems doable 😂

I think passing yards will be spread out about 1/3 to each of TE's, RB's, and WR's, about 1,000 each, so yeah, 3,000 total for the year...

Who said that ? All the reporting on second scrimmage has been that he dropped dimes deep .. and he was in full control. Now how will that translate to game time? I am not sure but no one has said anything about bubble screens at all.

Not to you, they haven’t.

If it makes you feel any better, these same observers said this is the best front 7 a Tennessee defense has had in decades.

Idk if we’ll see 500 rushing yards from him, at least not resulting from designed QB run plays. If he’s the right guy for the job, the last thing we’ll want to do is risk injury.

He’s a one year guy. He will run early and often if he is effective.

I have my doubts he throws for 2,500 yards based on his scrimmage performance last week. Apparently most of his completions were on bubble screens, which is what we often saw from a more athletic, more experienced Joe Milton, who also had more seasoned WRs to throw to.

I think Aguilar will be serviceable, but not above average. Just my take.

Listening to Jayson Swain, he had a drastically different take than you. He was very complimentary of Joey Aguilar’s performance. Didn’t sound like a lot of bubble screens to me. Also, in case you haven’t noticed, bubble screens are very common in our coach’s normal gameplay.
