'15 TX QB Quinten Dormady (UT Commit 6/9/14)

[UTFootballFan]

Based on Coach Jones' comments in the press conference today, it appears Dormady is ready and able to go for spring practice. Anyone have any info to the contrary?

Imo he'll be #2 come game 1. Throws it well. Moves well. He was an EE. Just makes sense.

I noticed that too. If he is healthy, I think he is the front runner for the number two spot. I like Jones, but spring practice will give Dormady an advantage. I think Jennings is the least likely.

Nope. VQ said he was throwing. Ready to see him ball.

 

[UTFootballFan]

Good. I hadn't heard anything lately and wasn't for sure if he was back to throwing. I wish the kid well. He's been through a lot and worked extremely hard to overcome some setbacks.

 

[Catbone]

QD will be behind Dobbs. Sheriron Jones would've been second if he was an EE. Jennings will continue to develop as QB but will ultimately become a Safety.

 

[UTFootballFan]

I think all of them will compete and it will all shake out where they need to be. Was just looking for some input about his shoulder since it's been pretty quiet regarding his status and what the problem was.

QD backs up Dobbs this year but Jones will be our QB of the future. Jennings and Kelly will be our starting safeties next season.

 

[VolinArizona]

Throws it well. .

Every 4* QB is gonna throw well. But I honestly wasn't overly impressed with his velocity

 

[jspvol76]

Still like Jennings running ability, just needs a little work in the QB room.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Vols sign the #3 QB class (Rivals). UCLA #1 because te signed the only 5 star.

There will not be many years when 3 QBs will be signed. However, when you have only one QB on scholarship, you have to step out of the norm. We may have to sign two in 2016, depending on how the three we signed this year work out. One thing is for sure, we will not win championships if we don't have a stable of QBs. Just look at 2013 and 14. QB was one of our weakest positions and our offense was not very good.

H

LOL. He's a lot faster than you make him sound. He has very good football speed.

I need Fast Twitch ratios on our QBs.

Check their STATS please.

Berry begs to differ

Jennings is going to end up being the best QB from the '15 class imo. I love his potential.

I actually agree

He's a solid athlete, but let's not get carried away here. He would get smoked in a foot race by probably almost all of our skill position players.

Dormady's athleticism reminds me a lot of Patrick Towles's athleticism. He's sneaky and moves pretty well--well enough to steal a couple first downs a game--but he's never going to add the running element that someone like Dobbs brings.

Dormady has a very good arm.

He has some really strong passes in his HUDL. He's just inconsistent. I think the mechanics will be ironed out and we'll see more consistent velocity.

 

[VolinArizona]

Dormady has a very good arm.

I wasn't overly impressed but I'm no scout.

 

[SmokeyFTW]

Makes too much sense

It's like saying a QB doesn't know what his TE or RB is doing on a play..

Exactly...

 

[LouderVol]

i think a lot of the problems people are seeing with Dormady passes is inconsistent WRs. get around the big time talent we have where he knows what to throw and i bet a lot of that inconsistency issues go away. imo of course

 

[DaddyChad]

I wasn't overly impressed but I'm no scout.

Saban asked him to make one throw then offered him immediately. He has one of the strongest arms in this class when healthy.

 

[VAVolsFan2009]

This QB competition will be very interesting. 3 different QBs and 3 different skill sets. The offense can utilize either of them. I just hope injuries don't decide the outcome. And then there is Kendall coming in next year. I think accuracy and knowledge of the offense will be the key factors. Gonna be fun!!!!!

 

[jasonvol18]

I wasn't overly impressed but I'm no scout.

I'm not either by any means but just going off reports from guys who evaluate and Coach's like Gruden, Butch, Kiffin and Saban all praising him I think we have a good one. I know a lot of fans like Jones and think he is our future at QB but I'm gonna go with Dormady. People can say what they want about Kiffin and I'm in that same boat, but he knows QB's and offered him after he came to throw for them. But regardless of who ends up starting down the road we have tons of potential at QB..Now the question is can they be developed or did they peak in HS. Really is the hardest position to predict on how a guy will play once he gets into college.
