@Sark.....

I noticed this also, his stride looks longer, his shoulders are not level, and he appears to be trying to occasionally side arm the ball.

Instead of a smooth throwing motion, he looks like he's throwing a dart at a dart board.

Dude's best attribute is his running ability, which will end up getting him injured in conference play.

If he'd stop panicking, trust the OL (which will also likely get him killed at UCLA), and get through his reads, he may be alright.

I have never seen anyone mess their career up so bad in less than 4 months. He was sitting shotgun inside of a gold mine and crushed it like an empty diet-rite can.

Why did the Charlotte rb just quit on that big run?

Oh, I was talking about nico. . . assumed that's who they were talking about,

I saw an asinine poll in the FF asking if the quarterback success under Heupel has been because of him or because of the talent of the quarterbacks. And almost half of the people really think that Heupel is just getting lucky with his QBs. I get that these guys have all been really talented, but it takes a great coach to squeeze every ounce of potential out of his QBs the way Heupel has. Just a reminder that....

Heupel's QBs have been:
-A benched Virginia tech QB
-A guy who throws the ball 70 yards when you need 10
-An overrated 7 on 7 QB who can't process a second read when he's not wearing pajamas
-An App State QB with a turnover problem who was 3000 miles away during spring practice.

Josh Heupel has coached those guys to a combined:

66% completion rating
97 Touchdowns
19 interceptions
39-16 record while building a team from the ground up and dealing with harsh recruiting restrictions.
Oh and by the way, this is all during the most talented-rich era of the SEC

It's Heupel's system. It's always been Heupel's system but it's also his coaching. He can scheme guys open all day long, but he also knows what it's like to play championship level football at the quarterback position. I can't think of many, if any other coaches who can really say that. He has been exactly where those guys have been and he knows what to say to them when they have questions. He's a true QB whisperer and people are finally starting to take notice again.

To say that Heupel has "gotten lucky" with his quarterback talent and play on the field is honestly an insult to the dedication that man has put into this job. Keep questioning him. People questioned his OL and WR this offseason. Look at us now.

OMG I freaking hate the stupid buffoons that infest this fanbase...what a bunch of freaking waterhead morons....

Seriously how can ANYBODY be that stupid?..much less a good chunk of thus fanbase.

Piss on these jackasses..and if any of you in here agree with that monumental load of pure idiot ...then piss on you.

 

[VOLociraptorr]

I used to like Pate, but something seems off now. Maybe I just have Pate fatigue.

Same. Andy Staples is my favorite now. He has more knowledge and less arrogance.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Charlotte can't score a TD.

I am convinced some of those morons have to be rival fans just trying to jerk our fanbase around.

Not to mention he just ranked UGA #3, but dropped UT 6 spots to #19 for an OT loss to UGA. . . a game we should've won.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Personally, I dont understand all the Mateer love.

They are queer for mateer.

After a lifetime of watching sports and being a member of sports fandoms, I've discovered that a lot of people are looking for reasons to be upset or disappointed to confirm their preconceived notions about the world. Were those same people to just start looking for the positives instead of the negatives, their entire lives would change for the positive. Pretty sure there's something in the Bible about this. I can't remember where.

Nicely said. Not sure why so many want to attack posters when everyone loves Heupel but you can still question some decisions.

Because half this fanbase are freaking stupid garbage just crapping on our coach every time they get a chance...criticism just feeds the stupid f'n trolls abd I hate them.

You can criticize decisions made in every game in the history of football by every coach in the history of football...every single thing that don't work for whatever reason becomes troll...I don't get the need to pile on with the trolls.

I hate losing as much as you or anybody else...we got a coach that has made losing a pretty rare thing.

 

[SmyrnaATLVolisback]

Opinions are fine. Informed opinions are much more worthwhile. That was more the point that the other poster was trying to make. You and your football buddies don't have near enough of the actual needed information to make good, informed opinions. CJH did not "run for a FG" in that possession. We ran plays that gave us the best chance to gain yards based on where we were on the field and the type of defense that was being played. If the OL/TE/RB execute the plas that were called we would have easily been in the Red Zone with a chance to score a TD. This hilarious echo chamber of "we got conservative and just played for the FG" after the TO is patently false. It is not an opinion.

Some of the people I know literally played on that field. And it wasn’t recently. It was when we played for championships. But yes, they know nothing.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I still contend that we did everything right. We played it right. Just kick a damn field goal. And I appreciate that the kid manned up and said he didn't do his job. We gonna be aight.

They played on the field, so they know everything...you're not allowed to think they are wrong...by the way, since they are such brilliant football minds, why ain't they coaching?

Looked like he started cramping mid run

I can't believe I have to further explain my previous post to several of you. Richard G West is acting like he has connections to the program when, in reality, all he is doing is regurgitating stuff mentioned in VN posts.

Brother @Vol423 as passionate as you are about it I believe you 100% let’s conspire and get him under investigation by the NCAA.the findings always favor the vols

*I was 12 yrs old the 1st time I watched Blazing Saddles and I couldn't believe what I had heard and seen. I'm 50 now and still can't believe Mel Brooks got away with it. One of the funniest movies ever.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

They needed a hurry up, power or bunch package. Use those TE's. Or run up and let QB sneak it. You dont go to locker room with three TO's, and :07. I get it, i'm not faulting Huep. Georgia has been there and it shows.

That's why they won that game. Not because of anything else.

They mostly won the game because a 3* TF CB that shouldn't have even played in this game couldn't do anything to stop a ball thrown in his direction from being caught for a whole game.. they absolutely torched that poor kid the whole game..

And our really reliable kicker missed a normally easy for him FG...which is literally THE reason we didn't win...Max hits that easy kick and none of this bitching and moaning is going on.

I think Ty is going to be great, but he is simply not ready for SEC talent....and that is nit his fault.

I love how people actually believe that not having our two NFL CBs and two future NFL DTs in the game was not a massive reason we lost...they just say that ASININE statement I have come to hate because it is soooo f'n stupid.."next man up"...when the next guys up at DT are two undersized DEs that have to play 60+ snaps each...you are going to get mauled in the running game...at least enough to get you beat.


This game was nearly a replay of the 22 Bama game...except the kick didn't go in.
