With Hooker out this means......

[Volteacher]

Well we aren't going to win against Alabama next week even with Patrick Mahomes as QB1

Next week is a bye week no harm no foul

Kentucky is where this is going to hit hard. This is a team we can beat and should be able to beat. Not your dad's Kentucky but a winnable game just like Ole Miss was.

UGA we aint going to do anything no matter the QB

South Alabama, we can put Garuanto under center and win 24-10

Candy we can win with a Tyron Evans under center running Army's playbook with just running plays.

I hope and pray he's back, but if he is not we go 6-6 if he comes back for the Kentucky game we might go 7-5 (4-4)

Got news for you, we ain't beating UK unless Hooker is playing. Gonna be a tall task even with him with all the other injuries we're still dealing with.

Can we change the thread title if there’s no update as to whether or not he’s ACTUALLY out?

I don’t think that’s news for him, because that’s exactly what he said in his post….

I haven't seen it, but supposedly some reputable poster on TOS is saying he's done.

Yes, our season is now ALL about the UK game. The other 4 should not be in doubt.
I say for Bama we basically play our second and third teamers.
Rest any first teamers or those with injuries.
plus they then get the bye week to prepare for UK.

Only read the bold part of his post. But still...

So now that Webb is hurt, let's write it off because this Thompson kid--

Wrong thread
Carry on

 

[BUCCnVOLfan]

So is he out or is this pure speculation????

 

[sonofUT62]

I can’t imagine what the spread could be on a game started by Joe Milton in Tuscaloosa.

 

[Vol_guy]

I know one thing. If he is out and they trot Joe Milton out there i am going to lose it...

 

[Vol_guy]

I'd rather lose by 42 with Bailey or one of the practice squad qbs playing vs watching joe milton

 

[utvols74]

I know Joe Milton is unpredictable....and that run out of bounds at the end of the game was the bonehead decision of the year in college football.

But....the play before.... it was catchable for a game-winning TD.

 

[knox73]

Yeah it's time to get off Milton's case. Glad they have him and he may have improved the past month. I heard Hooker is done for the year - not official yet. It is up to Joe III to bring the Vols into bowl eligibility. Yes that would have been something like the South Carolina backup quarterback leading the team to a victory. Would have even been better if Velus could have run the last punt in for a score.

Nobody really knows

 

[House of Neyland]

Milton beat Bowling Green pretty sure as bad as he is he can lead us to victory over South Alabama and Vandy to get us back to a bowl game which we really need.

I hate having a defeatist attitude, but I agree. We need to be as healthy as possible when that kentucky game gets here. We were going to get thumped by Bama and UGA no matter what so let’s rest up and have as many starters healthy as possible for the last 3 games.

 

[txbo]

We will sneak up on Bama or UGA and win one of those games.

I hope you dont gamble

 

[orangelo]

Are we sure Hooker is out yet?

 

[txbo]

I hope you dont gamble

I do….and I do fine.

It must suck to watch game’s you’ve conceded before they begin.

It would take an act from above to stay in the game with Bama and Georgia.

 

[joevol33]

If Hooker is done, so are we. We'll beat the 2 we should, but no chance in the others

I believe in acts from above.

 

[VolforFootball]

That's good and all, but a 6-6 record, with a potential bowl game to finish 7-6..... Coming into the season, I would have been thrilled with that. And I'll be just as equally as thrilled when I'm screaming my lungs out even if we end up in the Mulano's Poo Poo Bowl against Southern Miss.
