Maybe Auburn last year
I did not see the game but all I heard was that JG threw two or three jump balls that turned out to be big plays but Calloway and Jennings are the players who deserved the credit. Besides that game and the S.C. game this year has JG ever ever looked good against a quality D1 opponent? I cannot think of one.

Answer is no and hasn't looked good in many lesser opponents.

A little nervous that Pruitt said that our most important week day practice was with bad energy.

The sad truth is, that when JG is "ON" he's the best QB, but when he's off he's the worst QB


I know, I know, Life's Like a Box of Chocolate's, you never know what your going to get, especially with JG.......but we may need JG to beat KY, you just never know and that goes for life or football
When he's "on" it is usually because the opposing D doesn't cover well. He's still late and short. He still takes too long to deliver... the opposition just let's him get away with it. He doesn't anticipate throws. He's risk averse and will not try to put the ball into a tight window. The exception is that he's willing to throw into coverage down the sideline at times.

I noticed even in the practice videos that he is a half count late on a lot of throws. It is kind of weird.

He does know the O better and has the advantage of experience when it comes to managing the O.

JG was on point against Auburn last year. Truly his only really good came in his entire career...outside of the O&W game.

So Pruitt said this was the worst practice he’s seen in a while and the players had no energy. That’s not good.

Not surprising. The players have figured out that the scrub is going to start. We've reverted back to our week 1 energy level.

Expect a bad performance from the team if Jarette starts.

When has ever been on? The best JG has looked was vs. SC but even then he was upstaged by Shrout.

Once a year if we're lucky.
