'18 GA QB Justin Fields

[tim]

we need a mobile QB... period.

Without naming names..... we’ve seen what an accurate arm without mobility looks like

Fields is and will be good but he is no Trevor Lawrence. Lawrence is the best college true freshman QB I have ever saw before in my 40+ years of watching college football. He makes throws that normally a freshman QB doesn't make. If Lawrence came out this year, he would be the first pick in the NFL draft. He has it all and a damn shame he wanted to be a Vol

Yeah the reason butch is the worst coach in our history is because of what could’ve been. Dooley sucked but whatever. Only lasted three years and he didn’t bring in program changing players. Butch had Hurd, Dobbs, and Kamara. Wasted them all when those should have been the guys that took us out of the dregs. Then he made us miss on the next wave with Lawrence and Higgins. That reject possibly was the nail in the coffin for UT football ever becoming elite again

The eternal optimist. I bet you are a lot of fun at parties.

Wow yeah don’t know how he slipped my mind

If we give Pruitt 6 or 7 years to get this right we will be elite again. Just don’t think the fans will give him enough time to learn on the job.

If he can get to 8 wins by 2020 he will get all the time he needs, IMO.

Haselwood has already signed his LOI. He's just announcing his decision Jan 5th. His twitter or Instagram has a timer counting down to his move-in day to his new school and it lines up with Oklahoma.

That would make the most sense with what Oklahoma has done with WRs and QBs the last 5 years. Could see Fields close behind him.

id Rather have Jalen Hurts than fields. By the time Justin fields will be available we will have Harrison bailey.

“He’s a great kid," Haskins said. "He hit me up earlier. He’s just waiting to see what I do. I try to be positive and help as many people as I can. You know, Justin is going through something right now.”
Fields, a former 5-star recruit and the overall No. 2 player in the 247Sports composite rankings in the 2018 recruiting class, decided earlier this month to likely leave Georgia. The 6-3 dual threat quarterback is currently shopping for a new school, but could ultimately stay at Georgia.

I try my best not to say anything negative towards any recruit, so I won’t. Now, parents are a different story, well, nay, let’s just say LaVar Ball on steroids and leave it be. UT dodged a bullet with this one.

Don't know about that. Good chance Fields is available in 2019.

[SeanJean]

Yes. Tyler Bray put up big numbers.

Against schedule fillers. Did nothing against the teams that mattered.

He put up like 40+ against Georgia didn’t he? Our defenses were awful.

I agree seck.
@butchna said it best

We land Justin Fields and we don’t get Harrison Bailey imo and Shrout/Maurer are open to transfer...and IF he flourishes Fields leaves after two seasons. Lot you could live with but depth could be **** if health doesn’t pan out.

I'll name one, Peyton Manning.

If Penn St is the #12 best team in the country we should be ranked. Lol. They are awful.

Wrong thread? But I agree. Of course, you have a hate bias for UK...lol! Just remember, we spanked that 10-3 butt. Remind sis of that.

Yeah. Been switching back and forth so much. Lol

I actually recorded one game and watched Fiesta Bowl live. Was almost able to keep up with both games doing that. Wish I could do split screen.

Uhhh Peyton actually ran for positive yards and scored touchdowns running in college so you are incorrect.

You're out of your mind if you think PM was a mobile QB, which is what the op was about. You're just trying to argue.
