Is it over?
For the second season in a row, Tennessee is trying to find their quarterback in fall camp. Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt has maintained that it’s still a four man battle for the job, but those that have been around during practices are singing a different tune
.Jarrett Guarantano seems like he has taken control of this race. His head start learning the offense in the spring was always going to put him ahead of grad-transfer Keller Chryst to start, but the former Stanford quarterback has failed to close the gap on Guarantano to this point.
Austin Price of Volquest.com said on the Midday 180 yesterday that he doesn’t even think the battle is all that close, despite what Pruitt says. He thinks Guarantano is the runaway favorite to be named the starter.
“I think this is Jarrett Guarantano’s show,” Price said. “I’ve continued to maintain that. I think the only way he’s not the starter is if there’s an injury of some sort.”
One analyst believes Tennessee’s quarterback battle has already been decided
A bold projection by Austin Price. A couple of weeks go I heard him make the claim that Chryst's chances to win the starting job were already on life support. Good luck to both young men, I say. Just win, baby!
