Worley gets in the game and burns his redshirt

Coaches don't play for next year. They play to win games THIS year. If Worley gives us a better chance to win games, he's playing.

How does that show anything other than the fact that he is a complete fool? He burnt a future QB's redshirt so he could come in and hand the ball off ONE TIME. Why sacrifice an entire season somewhere down the line for a couple of plays in a game that we are losing by 30+ points.

Because he will probably be playing out the rest of the year.

He didn't burn it for 1 snap. Come on man.

This move had to be made and it is easier to make it like this instead of during the week without have pulling Simms first.

a couple of games now--or more. He might as well get some experience.

The reason we sux in the second half is that we're playing good teams and we can't score to save our ass, and so we break down in the second half. And we don't have a great defense, but rather a defense that plays hard in the first half, and then buckles.

What good is the experience of a few beatdowns? Bray will be back sometime in November anyway. Dooley is such an idiot. He just threw away an ENTIRE SEASON somewhere down the road just because Sims was struggling. The game was already in hand, bringing in Nash Nance wasn't going to lose it again. God I can't wait for DD to leave Knoxville.

dont you think he might start the rest of the year if Bray dont come back.Then next year he will have some games under him if something happens next year.

Yes, he will. OP doesn't seem to get that. We cannot score with Simms, it's time to move on and let him and Desmond Howard duke it out.

Dooley was sending a message to his team that he wasnt giving up and he will do whatever needs to be done to fight with them to the end.

Worley just handed the ball off, but it was significant in telling his team, that he is not mailling it in with Simms and will try all options.

Simms is the fool along with yourself. Not Dooley. The time for no mas Simms was here.

i didn't think you burnt a redshirt just because you played one series. i thought you had to play so many games to burn your redshirt.

Dooley knows bray is out for entire year and he needs Worley to beat Vandy/UK...that better be the only reason for this

Still? Why put him into a game which is already over. Why not wait until tomorrow before making the decision when emotions aren't affecting decisions. If he still feels that way tomorrow, give Worley the chance in practice this week.

We can redshirt Peterman next year, and if Bray returns for his senior season, we can use Peterman as the back up and redshirt Worley, and let them compete for the starting job (along with whoever else we sign the next recruiting year). Have seen this done before.

Five hand off plays Four from the one. Loss of one year eligibility. Heavy price to pay for that experience..I think Nance could have done as much

And these coaches do not think about redshirts during the heat of battle and in the season.

I like that.

I like it too. They can't coach for 2014 right now or they risk losing the team.

And this will sound callous but . . . there will be other QBs.

No they really can't. Who's still left there next season to backup Bray at QB?

Someone's going to have to go in for him at some point in the year

We suck this year anyway. Why throw away a future season? We're not going to beat USCjr or Arkansas regardless of who plays, and if we can't beat UK, MTSU or Vandy with Sims, we just deserve to lose to them. If people were really willing to give DD a pass on this season because he is building for the long term, then to them, such a shortsighted decision should be downright indefensible to them.

You guys mad that they are giving worley snaps to try and win a couple of games are not smart. DD has no choice. We lose to vandy with simms. He wanted to get him snaps for next week.
Brays injury and simms suckiness leave no option.
