Put a fork in him - Riley Ferguson is DONE. [attempted sarcasm]

[Ronny Swanson]

Dobbs has the most potential of any of the 4 QB's in my opinion. Tons of upside. He may not be the starter at the beginning of the season, but he will be by the end. Mark my words.

Not even close. Ferg has most potential. He'll be the man against Utah State.

the quality threads never stop on this board.

it's too good to be true.

Driskell again. Good luck.

Coached by an orangutan is the biggest issue there, or no?

Running out of OC's to blame.

 

[PassedOutAwake]

I think a lot of people missed or forgot reports that Dobbs had some issues this spring. The beginning of spring he had fumbling issues. Also reported he was inconsistent with his throws.

Yeah, Dobbs is more experienced than Peterman and Ferguson... but you know how to fix that? Give them playing time.

And when it comes to speed, Ferguson is right behind Dobbs. Fergy isnt slow.

Plus we heard from Butch himself that Ferguson showed the most leadership. Something a lot of yall seem to forget

 

[driscokid]

Josh Dobbs is bigger, faster, smarter, more accurate, more experienced, and less turnover-prone than Riley Ferguson, but Ferguson is still the better quarterback because... ?

Because he is the only one who hasn't played in a game so he must be better than the rest...element of surprise in the fall will confuse the other teams

That's an insult to orangutans. It's more like he's coached by a jackass.

People won't read this. They think because Dobbs had a good game against a 2nd string defense in front of 68k fans, that he's (insert any adjective here) than Ferguson.

 

[GAVol]

Because Riley has an nfl arm which you cannot teach and Dobbs has very little arm strength also played against guys who might not see the field after Saturday especially with the freshman coming in.

His arm is fine.

 

[Ronny Swanson]

His arm is fine.

Yes.

 

[CountVolcula]

I just hope one steps up

Tired of subpar QB play

 

[driscokid]

And the fact that he has played in front of 100k fans and an opposing team...not saying he is better than Ferguson but right now Ferguson is as good as Peterman was before his first snap in the swamp...everybody's opinion of how good and mobile he was sure changed by halftime..

 

[cwbytruckers]

Maybe we get lucky and they put our qb's in the new revived bionic butch program.

I think it's ridiculous how some people are determining Dobbs > Ferguson from a spring game.

Didn't VN christen Ferguson as the second coming of Manning? I mean isn't he much more talented than any QB on the roster?

Folks did the same thing calling Dobbs the next Tee Martin and that he would win us a NC.

Theres no way anyone can put RF in front of NP based strictly on the O&W game

Peterman should be 5th on depth chart. So yea, anyone can.

Peterman should be at UTC,Appalachian State or Furman.

 

[FLVOL_79]

NOT!

I wish we had the internet during the Peyton Manning / Brandon Stewart freshman year. I would love to know if Volnation would be as polarized about a QB then as it is now.

An Orange and White game NEVER makes or breaks a player. Period. Riley might have had the roughest day, but it also sounds like the coaching staff were trying to relay a message with some tough love. Kudos to them.

From my personal perspective - I believe in Seniors, and Worley grew into the QB last year before the injury. He showed a lot on Saturday. Having said that, you ALWAYS play the guy who gives you the best chance to win.

Whoever wins the starting QB in the Fall, I know I feel really confident in the two guys behind him. Things are starting to look up on the Hill.

GBO!

We did.

Well, I did.


I also had a CD-R on my Pentium MMX computer.


And we had Bulletin Boards, or BBS.

Fringe elements did..

 

[jmkvols]

Because the coaches said so?

I am positive the coaches will review Volnation posts before deciding.

 

[MrBiggles]

I'd say its Worley and then all the others.. You're choice of which one.

 

[TGVol]

Fringe elements? On this forum?

 

[UTK]

I don't know why people are saying he looked bad. All the qbs looked good. Dobbs looked the best, but fergie looked fine.
