Scrimmage Today (10/11)

[Alto1]

It’s for the young guys, it’s to help speed up learning.. It’s been planned

Seems a little late......
I guess better than never though.

For those who haven't heard, Pruitt is holding a scrimmage today for players who aren't getting a lot of PT. I assume that means the backup QBs will all play. Reports are that Dee Beckwith will play.

I'm looking forward to hearing reports from this scrimmage. Will there be any way of hearing about it? Anyone know what time it is?

 

[RAVOL]

The interesting note I would like to know is who looks better as far in command of the O Shrout or Bailey?

 

[Rememberthe1990s]

According to cjp its a scrimmage held for the younger guys and for those you have yet to see live game action, so think of it as a jv game.

Could mean shrout earns pt. No doubt jg will start, but they may make planned drives where shrout gets all the snaps.

Not like they had a chance with us getting blown out to give shrout real live minutes and snaps. I mean in a pandemic do you really want to give your backups a chance to get live reps?

Sorry...I now see the other thread on this. Mods, feel free to delete.

I though Dee Beckwith was still injured?

I don't think we've seen much of Wideman and Holiday.

I also don't remember seeing J. Hyatt yesterday in the game.

JP thought he saw some lack of effort among 4-5 guys- I think hes gonna go Bear Bryant on their Azz.

I hope. Smith and Mays are two of them.

No this isn't typical and Pruitt addressed it last week stating that this scrimmage is geared toward 2nd-3rd teamers getting closest thing to live reps because they didn't get enough reps in during fall practice.

Or Mauer

 

[OldVolMan]

I bet JG wins the starting job

best practice QB ever!!!

 

[OldVolMan]

Is it typical to have a scrimmage the day after a game? A road game at that.

no, but this is not a "typical" year

 

[FiremedicVOL127]

Pruitt isn't such the hardass he made himself out to be yesterday, the scrimmage was already scheduled

Vols hoping to develop more depth with Sunday scrimmage

He didn't try to make himself out to be a hard ass! Heck he told the world the scrimmage was scheduled last week in a presser.

Yep, but it still will count against our 20 hours allowed so basically we get less prep time for KY. Anyone know how long it will last? Hopefully 2 hours max

 

[gunner]

No its not typical. It's something you do after after having an embarrassing offensive performance against one of you main rivals.

It was planned well in advance of the loss to UGA.

 

[bpalmer28]

Time for Bailey to do work. Let’s go HB!

 

[Alto1]

I hope. Smith and Mays are two of them.

I wish we had a leader out of the o lineman.
Someone who would get their teammates attention when they messed up.
Great o lines are MEAN. We are not......

 

[Ty4Vols]

I bet JG wins the starting job

Not funny, but yet somehow funny

 

[madbamahater]

Hopefully Pruitt is opening up the QB position and will allow others to prove or disprove themselves on the field of play. If this makes JG sad or mad, oh well. He isn't getting it done. Will Pruitt be so stubborn to allow JG to put him back on the hot seat talk? Maybe. Maybe he's that dumb and stubborn.

No im not sure at all how long it'll last, but we do need to get the younger guys uo to speed somehow since they didnt scrimmage in the spring or fall

We could have done that 2nd half against Missouri, that’s what most coaches do, put in your 2/3rd stringers, it was a blowout.

Hyatt played. Got the ball on a reverse and had a couple targets.

I thought I read in the Dee Beckwith thread on the recruiting page that he would play in the scrimmage. Maybe it was somewhere else.

He knew.

 

[Gandalf]

I anticipate the sheer volume of expletives will make write-ups challenging and prevent any airing of scrimmage due to hefty FCC fines.

I expect a LOT of this

and this

and this

And more

Missouri was driving to make it a one score game late in the second half before the int. Definitely was not a blow out at any point until after we scored that last td.
