I was wondering what you guys think? I mean if the freshman aren't better than Worley now they man need at least another year to get ready.

The freshman cannot be any worse than Worley. I think instead of asking this question you need to find Butch and ask him why they haven't gotten a chance to show what they have first.

Coach would say that the JUCO QB doesn't have the experience play in the SEC. It would be a waste of a scholarship.

I think so. The freshmen not playing says a lot about where they are, and the offense seems pretty simple at this point.

I would think that one of the freshman will get plenty of reps with the ones these next two weeks just to prepare.

I firmly believe that a major contributor to this problem is the likelihood that at least 2 QB's transfer and we're left with 2 scholarship QB's on the roster. Please follow: If Coach Jones plays a freshman, common sense would dictate that both Worley and Peterman will transfer; they're simply not gonna sit for multiple years as a back-up. By playing Worley/Peterman, the chances of transfer are greatly reduced. Coach Jones knows this is year zero anyway. I believe that it actually helps that one of the QB's got hurt (although I don't wish that on anyone). It allows a freshman to play a back-up role where we could possibly redshirt one to get them in different years. It is also greatly possible that should he start one of the true freshmen, the other freshman, along with both Worley and Peterman will transfer leaving us with one QB.

I know some will say, "let them transfer"; it's not that simple as a CEO (which is what Coach Jones is). With 2 transfers, we will be forced to take 2 marginal QB's in next year's recruiting class (with the strong possibility that one of them would transfer as well).

I really believe this is about roster depth and surely hope that they can sign an athlete capable of playing QB or DB/WR (like Jeremaine Copeland) next year.

Today would have been a good opportunity to break in the freshmen. It's obvious Worley does not have it, we missed a great opportunity today.

They don't want to see it. They thought peterman would save us and he didn't. So the other guys have to be better since they couldnt beat peterman out. Sound logic.... not

No I figure a year just practicing and not putting our freshmen in only to get shell shocked by the best of the best will help us in the long run

I've held in my thoughts about the nega vols here, but..... What kind of idiotic moron are you? It's his first year with Dooley's QBs and players. Give the man time to recruit because right now, he's killing it. How you criticize Butch for awful QB play is beyond me. Better yet, go find you a winning team to root for champ
