Not gutsy to remove the starting QB who was something like 27-2, who’d all but won you the title game the year before, the guy you’d won with all year long, in favor of a true freshman who’d thrown about 50 passes in his only year in college?

On one hand I agree, because Hurts clearly wasn’t getting it done and showed no signs that he would going forward. But on the other hand....I think most coaches in that situation try and regroup at halftime with Hurts. At least that’s what everyone else seemed to think it in calling it a bold move.

I just see it different. The onside kick against Clemson was gutsy and a great call. Taking Hurts out IMO was the obvious move. Hurts may have been 27-2, but that’s mostly bc of the defense he played behind. Auburn and Georgia exposed his weakness.

Agreed. While watching the NC I felt like Saban didn’t have a choice. It was obvious that Hurts wasn’t going to give them a chance to win

Seems interesting that none of the services have posted any info on him visiting since the initial info on Thursday. Or did I miss it?

They don’t typically post stories until recruits have left town and given an interview. Usually Sunday nights or Monday. Plus this was intended to be a low key secret visit that ended up public so not sure if we’ll get a story. I’m sure a nugget or two will be posted sometime soon.

He did make it in. He told me he arrived Friday night and just stayed yesterday to work out at Tennessee’s camp and spend time with the coaches.

There’s certainly nothing imminent, as far as I can tell, in terms of him perhaps flipping to another school. I think this is one of those situations where Tennessee is trying to play the long game and just stay in the race for now. But he still has interest in Tennessee, and he’s probably going to return in the coming months on an official visit.
