IMO, Milton played with the "touchdown or checkdown" type of mentality and he was very conservative with his decision making. That combined with his inability to throw the middle of the field led to limited & predictable playcalling.Overall, Aguilar was 430 yards better from production. He also had twice as many turnovers.
Once again, his lore is how he came here in the spring and made it work… not that he had some super duper spectacular year that was unheard of.
8-4 record, within 500 yards overall with Milton, double the turnovers.
Plenty of guys in the portal who are just as good or better. Yawn.
Show us any legitimate proof that Halle isn’t calling plays.First, no one believes Halzle is the real OC. Second, Aguilar was seasoned and experienced. It gave Heupel and Halzle a head start in getting him up to speed because he'd been a starter and under live fire. What we have now is raw as raw can be. Forget GMacs class standing. The kid has the barest threads of real experience. Brandon may have been hot stuff in HS, but that schedule next year will have that kids head swimming.
Why are you bringing up the 8-4 record? Also how can you say with any certainty that any QB in the portal would come here and do better than JA did?Overall, Aguilar was 430 yards better from production. He also had twice as many turnovers.

No one is saying someone can't have turnovers. I will state that he had twice as many turnovers over Milton's 2023 season that it neutralized a lot of the advantages in passing yards and touchdowns he had....How many do this with a tumor in his arm?
Also 3rd best passing season in Vol history? Yeah what a yawn
Okay the Oklahoma and Bama pics were bad and in the first quarter.
So you're not allowed to have turnovers anymore?
You people are braindead.
To say Joey had the same production as Milton is simply false. Joey averaged 1 more yard per attempt, 40 more yards per game, 10 point higher QB rate, and 3% higher completion percentage. Production was much better with Joey. Revisionist history already.2023 and 2025 QB's were named Joe
2023 and 2025 QB's virtually had same production
2023 and 2025 QB's started 12 games and went 8-4
Once again, 2025 QB play was nothing to write home about. The QB production this year wasn't some mega all time great season that we will talk about for years to come.
We thank Joey for his service and whirlwind road that led him here and the massive payday he secured. It was a good story. But from production, it wasn't anything we haven't seen in recent years. Thank you

When turnovers result in a 14 point swing, no they are not allowed if you want to win games.How many do this with a tumor in his arm?

Also another stat for the Milton Joey comparison. Joeys team averaged 8 more ppg. Production wasn't similar. Dude is the clear 2nd best QB of the Heup era with 3 months to prepare. The disrespect is downright goofy.
12 Game Averages:
Aguilar - 295 YPG / 27 Touchdowns
Milton - 259 YPG / 27 Touchdowns
That is virtually the same production when Aguilar had double the turnovers....
Once again, you are trying to make this a passing production only comparison from the QB position, which is something I never made it exclusively. I've had the same position all the way back in November. When it comes to production per game from the QB position, it's virtually the same season.
As it stands, Aguilar and Milton virtually had the same production per game with Aguilar having slightly more yards per game and Milton having less turnovers.
This isn't controversial or "revisionist history"

Yeah he and Milton are the same…sure
I'm not losing anything my man. I gave you the stats. Higher QB rate, Completion percentage, better on a per play and game basis by a wide margin, more TDs, more points by the team. But yes Milton threw less picks.Team Points per Game and Yards per Game don't really matter in the conversation. Like I said, when it comes to QB production, they are virtually even. The fact you are trying to argue actual stats by invoking other stats that no one ever invoked shows you are losing.
Once again, you can try to argue the averages of production from Joe's 2023 season and Joey's 2025 season, but you can't unless you somehow find a digital eraser and start modifying the game logs.
