Pavia would be the 2nd or 3rd best quarterback at Tennessee in the past 10-15 years.

He is a very scheme specific player........ Not in this system.

Straight glazin. 15 years includes Hendon, Dobbs, Bray. I don’t even think he’s better than Milton or Nico. Those long sideline screen passes would all be picks with Pavia throwing them.

Is this really Butch Jones? Because who you ranking down? Dobbs? Bray? Hendon? Milton? Pavia is very over rated. He is good for Vandy and it stops there.

So I was talking to someone and said I'd hoped NICO would at least have produced like DJ Lagway with the Gators. And then I looked at DJ Lagway's numbers Yikes. Not good. Then I found this snippet (thanks AI):

He holds an On3 NIL Valuation of $3.8 million, seventh among college athletes and fourth among football players, and has deals with Gatorade, Nintendo, Epic Games and Leaf Trading Cards.

With his numbers last year, 3.8 million?

I would've chosen Lagway over Nico in a heartbeat

Who Balled Out In UCLA Bruins Spring Practice?

10:50

Not exactly a ringing endorsement...

I will be rooting for the hogs on this one.

Agree - he's a scheme guy. A gamer for sure, but our scheme is not directly aligned with what he did for Vandy.

Yup

 

[DD4ME]

Not news, but final confirmation. Enjoy Cam Ward. He's damn sure better than Levis.

Welcome back beau

 

[VOLumeS]

Welcome back beau

If he does is it a stretch to say it may have been a Nico problem?

 

[DD4ME]

Another reason why I believe @Visidog is my man Brooks. Mad props for what he brings to our board. Best opposing poster we got on scheme and data. Like Brooks as best commentator not on UT beat too.

 

[DD4ME]

For those that actual try to keep the player threads focused - we need more of this.

 

[volbeast33]

I get that too, but If player A didn’t learn a full route tree in college, why would that preclude him from doing so in the NFL?

So to me, if the talent is there, no matter where they went to college it will eventually show up in the NFL. Now, the argument of draft position being lower holds more water imo

It won't prohibit someone from being a great NFL player but it may cause some elite players to choose other schools that will prepare them for the NFL

 

[DD4ME]

No, but you always blame the guy that leaves for everything for at least 60 days. Or in this case kickoff.

 

[DD4ME]

Ranger owners will never not suprise me.

 

[rikberry31]

I don't have a problem with our system, although I feel that he will need to make some adjustments bc teams are starting to defend it better. We need some quality NFL players to make the doubts about our system go away.

It's about the Jimmies and the Joes. X's and O's make little difference if you don't have dogs getting after it.

That where the river rafting companies are at MM 435... Maybe the horse is going rafting..

 

[JT3]

If he was really offered $3MM, that's an easy decision.

 

[Visidog]

Brooks knows ball. I just yap on the internet.

Heupel gives everybody something to talk about. His style looks different and makes me think and ask questions. I think I understand the game better as a result.

 

[rikberry31]

Scary.. Pavia is a ok QB not a Tennessee level QB, Hopefully with better coaching we won't have to ask "why?" So much. You want your QB to be solid decision maker.

Can't wait to see Jose' Football verses Joey Football.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Just recieved my first skeeter bite of the year!

 

[rikberry31]

It’s a valid concern, Heupel’s job is to win at Tennessee. But part of that requires elite players and if Tennessee has issues getting them due to the offense then that’s a valid issue

We have elite players. If you're basing this on the fact that we didn't pick up Arch Manning after Nico bugged out in a post spring portal window then you are being silly. Who of consequence has not been locked up by now? We needed a 3rd scholarship qb and we got one, that is pretty good.
With our offensive line we are going to put up numbers next year, I don't care if Pee Wee Herman is the qb.

I am going to assume you are actually Butch Jones. Because the QB opinion that you just shared fits in perfectly with the opinion that Trevor Lawrence would not be a fit in his offensive scheme in college.

Which was fan fiction in liquid form.
