That's my impression as well. I love his vibe. He seems to be cool calm and in control. That's the mentality you need at QBComfortable in his own skin. I can see how he would build relationships within the team within a few weeks that Nico hadn't built in 2 years. Just completely different personalities... in the best possible way for UT.
Just need to see how he or the other guys perform.
I am loving this kid more and more every day. I love his attitude, and he seems to have that IT factor. If he comes in and balls out it will be one of the most inspirational moments in CFB.
What Yall think?
I totally agree with your assessment on Nico IMO he was an enigma. I just never did embrace him as a fan and felt there was no camaraderie with his teammates. Not sure what it was but he just had no magnetism that all great QBs have. He had all the measurables athletically but it always seemed something was missing. I'm excited to see what JA can do, will be the difference in number of Ws how he plays and fits the system.Comfortable in his own skin.

To be fair, the starter at ASU got hurt in the first game, but JA was prepared for the moment.Kids a baller. Been the underdog at every stop since HS....juco and ASU. He won the starting job both times and his tape is promising. Gunslinger not afraid to run the ball either. He will put up better numbers than Nico IMO. GO VOLS
Crazy career, like going from Weber State to Snow College to Oklahoma.A lot of kids act like they have a chip on their shoulder.
This kid plays like Football will be taken away from him at any moment.
I mean…from no scholarship offer…to JUCO…to APPALACHAIN STATE….to The University of Tennessee is crazy work. Or in my generations vernacular “ legendary “. Think about all the kids these days with their star rankings that flat out FLOP! This kid takes every opportunity and RUNS WITH IT.
Before Nico bailed I stated that UCLA had 8 QBs but really only had one. I was talking about Joey Aguilar. I thought with the offense that they have their now under Sunseri that Aguilar was going to shine in LA.
It so crazy how he is now playing for Tennessee.
Thank you Transfer Portal![]()
