QB Ryan Staub commits to UT

[jaguinn5]

is a Vol. He will compete but I don't expect him to win the job. Everybody can calm down now.

I saw it when announced. That was such a fast post, lol. Nice job.

 

[ChrisOnRockyTop]

Nice so while everyone else goes out and pays for good QBs we get these guys....

lol. It popped up on my phone while I already had Volnation open on the computer. Right place right time.

this just means it's MacIntyre's job to lose. can't forget he's a five star and presumably a good QB. staub is just a depth piece

I think at this point we can all assume that the coaches are all in on MacIntyre.

You're Vol Nations' Adam Schefter.

Wasn't it only 24/7 who had him as a 5*?

I know ESPN did not.

 

[BatteredVol44]

5* by some, not all, recruiting services.

so is Tristen keys. bs

 

[YankeeVol]

ESPN, 24/7 and On3(Rivals) all have him as a 5*....

How much do you think we are paying for GMac and Faizon?

And that matters how ?

 

[dduncan4163]

Here's hoping Joey gets another season.

 

[dduncan4163]

We better hope GMac is able to put on at least 25lbs by fall because there's no way he will physically survive an SEC schedule at his current size. Faizon will be the starter by seasons end.

It's irrelevant because they are unproven.

Everyone else goes out and gets proven QBs. See Miami.

 

[sgtwebb1]

And that matters how ?

Hell, if he'd committed to Alabama or Ohio State, ESPN would have rated him a 6-star.

 

[YankeeVol]

And that matters how ?

It's like claiming unearned NCs....

 

[Gandalf]

Ok - solid depth for what we would hope would be 3rd string.

 

[SubVet676]

Needed a depth piece, got a depth piece. Staff has clearly decided to go all-in with GMac / Brandon. To delay is to risk losing one or both, so it's time.

Now, go get a meat-eater at S&C and let's see what happens.

Go Vols.

I don’t know what you expect them to do? They are already paying 2 highly rated quarterbacks. They are obviously very high on GMac and Brandon or they would have paid someone and brought them in. Also there is still a chance that Joey is back. We’re fine at quarterback.

We are paying for good QBs. Just not through the portal.

 

[DaddyChad]

You guys are too nervous. I feel good whether Brandon or GMac starts. If you look at it we’ve strengthened every position but QB especially the ones we struggled with last year.

Our pass rush wasn’t good, so we went out and got the best edge in the portal. Secondary is completely revamped especially safety. Lber addressed, interior dline addressed as well. Oh yeah and we added a kicker also.

That’s just defensive side as well. Oline imo has more depth even though the loss of Heard hurt; we were always going to move Sanders this year anyways. Really like the Tulane RB we added.

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

Ok - solid depth for what we would hope would be 3rd string.

He will be second string unless JA comes back.

 

[Big Orange Captain]

Well that was about as excruciating as a root canal but we finally got our QB so let’s roll!!!

I’m trusting JH on his QB development ability.
