Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

2015 Josh Dobbs: 205/344 (59.6%) for 2291 yards, 15 TD. 146 Rush Att for 671 yards, 11 TD, 1 rec 58 yd TD. 3020 Total Yards, 27 total TD.

2016 Josh Dobbs: 225/357 (63%) for 2946 yards, 27 TD. 150 Rush Att for 831 yards, 12 TD, 1 rec 4 yd TD. 3781 Total Yards, 40 total TD.

2021 Hendon Hooker: 206/303 (68%) for 2945 yards, 31 TD. 166 Rush Att for 616 yards, 5 TD. 3561 Total Yards, 36 total TD.

Hooker did all that with 1.5 less games under his belt, in a brand new system that the entire offense was learning. With a lesser roster.

Will 2022 Hooker beat 2016 Josh Dobbs total yards and TDs from scrimmage? If so, where does that rank Hooker and Dobbs in your Tennessee QB overall rankings? Both top 10?

Does Hooker have to have signature wins like 2016 UF and UGA?

To me the biggest stat you gotta have as a QB at UT to cement yourself here as top 10 or better is Wins & Losses.

Peyton Manning: 39-6
Casey Clausen: 34-10
Andy Kelly: 24-5-2
Tee Martin: 22-3
Josh Dobbs: 23-12
Heath Shuler: 19-5
Hendon Hooker: 6-5

I don't know how many he'll win this season, but if he wants to really be talked about as a UT great he needs to finish his career with 15 or more wins I think.

I think that's fair.

Unless he beats Bama

May God lift up your beautiful daughter along with your whole family and the surgical team. May she have a full recovery and a wonderful life ahead of her.

After this, she’s gonna do great things.

This is a beautiful prayer.

She is out of surgery. It went really well. She is on pain medication now, but she’s awake, breathing, and moving well. Thank you all for praying and thinking of us. Love you guys.

So are the doctors!!!

Camerons are nice, but overrated.
Tons of tour players use them, but they are all custom built for them specifically.

My favorite putter ever was a Never Compromise Voodoo putter that I won in a charity tournament raffle. $35.00 retail.
I could actually putt with it.
My son talked me into getting a new putter and letting him have the Voodoo putter.
I got this nice Ping putter…back to can’t putt worth a damn…

That is awesome to hear!

Just gunshy with that cursed stadium.

Cover the damn field if it rains for days before we play and no ACC refs. I hope DW put it in the contract.

Edit: In all seriousness, Heup and this team aren't scared of ghosts and neither am I. WGWTFA

The time gap between your birth year and now and your birth year minus your age is pretty wild to think about. For me…

1946 … 1984 … 2022

The amount of change in this world is quite great to think about. In the time I’ve been alive I could have seen the end of WWII. And I think of myself as relatively young.

I know I’m late to this, but it’s even crazier when you think about the reverse birth date for the lady that was linked in here the other day that is 127 years old— her date predates the founding of America by eight years.

She looks absolutely precious…. Glad she is doing so well.

 

[engineerVOL]

This could be a class to remember for the VOLS.

Sure does look like the good times may be just around the corner again.

America is just not that old.

Oops.

To A&M's defense, they did spend a lot on recruiting on last year's class.
