(Rumor) Chaney reached out to Hurts

[allvol123]

Hopefully the AAF makes it a few years before folding so he can play some pro ball.

 

[FLVOL_79]

So you think Hurts would be a bad pick up for Pruitt?

It would be a bad pick up for JG and his homers

 

[Cartervol]

If they were to bring Hurts in i'd expect JG's name in the transfer portal the same day. Writing would be on the wall.

 

[LWSVOL]

Hurts not coming to Knoxville. Imo

 

[mikec143]

They'll help, but there's a reason most true freshmen o-linemen never see the field.

Tell that to Cade Mays.

 

[GAVol]

Tell that to Cade Mays.

Hence the reason I said MOST. There just aren't many guys straight out of high school who are physically ready to do it well.

 

[GetYouSomeofThat]

It would be a bad pick up for JG and his homers

When JG isnon the field I'm one of his homers...

However if a better QB can push him or beat him out, I'm all for that also

 

[GetEmVols]

Tell that to Cade Mays.

Interesting that you chose Georgia’s Cade Mays over TNs Trey Smith in your example there.

 

[87&91ALUM]

I’d say take him. Having a player of his caliber in the locker room would be good. Maybe play him as a receiver. He is a proven mobile QB.

 

[volbeast33]

I find it really dumb you like carrying JG water.
You'll get your wish though. JG will be the QB because no elite QB will be transferring here.

I don’t see why our fans hate JG so much..... he was the 6th best rated QB in the SEC with the SEC’s worse offensive line..... Look what happened to Tua when his offensive line was breaking down in the championship game.

 

[25801VOL]

All of you saying Hurts shouldn’t come here because we have a QB are mentally retarded. Our QB is horrible and we will never win more than 6 games with him starting. He can’t move. Yes he’s tough, but that’s not a stat on QB rating.

Hence the reason I said MOST. There just aren't many guys straight out of high school who are physically ready to do it well.

Don’t think Morris and Wright are in the category of those who won’t do well. They may not be All-SEC as freshmen, but they should be significant upgrades. If they are average, they will have made a significant impact.

Rick Clausen was a 10x the Vol JG is. Just watch the LSU 2005 game. More than half the team wanted Clausen to start of Ainge but Fulmer/Cutcliff weren't having it. Did you see Clausen boo hoo'ing on the sidelines??? Nope... he stayed ready and when his name was called on he whipped the LSU tigers on their home turf under the lights.

So why am I ridiculous? You're saying if Hurts vowed to come here on the condition that we promised him the starting QB spot which would require Pruitt to inform JG his services were no longer needed, you wouldn't think that's a net positive for UT?

He saved his boo-hooing for after the game
