dont drink too much, ya Zollicof

We didn't tailgate and I don't drink beer. It was just me and my 16 yo daughter. We had fun but no booze for me.

Would kill it at WKU.

Tayven is going to be good in the future.

The same was said about Bailey. It’s too early to close the book on him, but so far he hasn’t been the generational talent we thought.

 

[SpringBokVol]

If anyone was going to be the generational talent I thought it was going to be Salter. Dumb kid!

He wouldn’t start here but Liberty’s QB is a 1st rounder too

What made you think Salter was so great? I thought he was a good prospect, but another project with a lot of issues to fix.

The farther removed a QB is from starting, the higher their perceived value. It's science.

I know I know. Have them drive you home ONCE when they’re toddlers and errybody gets judgey.

i think the majority saw HB's record and stats in HS as well as the touch hes had on some good outings. combined with how bad other options are, and hoped. I know it was me.

Now we know. Hes far far from ready.

My daughter could actually drive, but I think I would probably sober up real quick if she had to drive in post game traffic and get us home safely.

I am not saying he is good. I thought out of high school he was a great prospect. Elite and just what we needed. Like our own Kyler Murray.

It was just a hope. Not the reality.

I thought he was a really good prospect...but evidently it is just pure luck to find one that can play well in college.

Or only the absolute cant miss *****'s can play immediately. And they usually go to Clemson, OSU, Georgia, or Florida.

My God, that means I was a can't miss hybrid of Brady, Manning, Marino and Elway! To bad Tennessee didn't cruit me.

5* "Can't miss" types bust all the time also.

I did not base my opinion of him on his HS "stats" or "record"...I did base it on how I saw him play with my own eyes. Stats lie or at least are very misleading sometimes. Bailey threw the ball beautifully in HS..not just a couple of times, but hundreds of times.

I still think he could or will be a quality QB at some point, and I hope that is here. He is not ready yet...he got his chance and stunk it up.

If Nathan Peterman can become an NFL QB with time and development...so can Harrison Bailey.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Hope is discouraged here on VN.

Hope is for suckers and fans of uncursed programs.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

If Milton starts I think he finally hits his wide open receivers. I mean 3rd times the charm right?

If Hooker starts I’m not too worried he is still hard to play against as a defense and he can hit throws, just don’t like his ball security.

I’m a little worried about our middle of the field defense and our pass rush. I hope to see more from Baron and Young this week. If those two can be disruptive, Florida is in for a long day.

 

[Catbone]

I think we have to start Milton only because he hasn't been as much if a turnover machine as Hooker.
