What if Bailey goes to Kentucky?

what if you stfu?

 

[VolGee4]

Gonna follow in Riley’s footsteps and ball out at Memphis.

I think they are excited about true freshman, Henigan.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

So in the spring we’re going to have Hooker if he returns, and Jackson. If Hooker doesn’t, Milton probably does. So Milton and Jackson. We need two more QB’s

I say move Holiday or Beckwith (or both) to QB. I mean Holiday looks like he can throw the pigskin in his HS tape so I don't think it'd be too difficult for him plus having a 4.3 guy at QB will be exciting.

 

[Voltrapnbama]

Should be 32, ya get 25 + 7...there's a small chance we could get back a few guys from last class. But don't know. I'd start at 32 and give a +/- of 3

Thank you!

He was an early enrollee as a freshman. He can probably transfer during the semester and still have enough credit hours. So if he finds the school he wants to go to, he can probably transfer before the end of the season. Which would put him ahead of the game with whatever team he goes to.

This seems logical. He still looks like a quitter. I am pretty ticked about anybody who leaves on their own before the season is over.

 

[SpringBokVol]

If Hooker doesn't return we have Milton and freshman TJ next year.

Not good.

Also, leaving mid year is a risky move for a QB. We are 1 snap away from having to play Milton and we know that can quickly lead to playing the next QB up.

Maybe HB knows no matter what he wasn't getting on the field.

Then he'd become one of those mummified monks that are supposedly still alive

I mean I’m not ticked… he was obviously not getting a shot, I mean they played an injured Joe Milton over him in a game…..

The Atlanta Cokes

The Atlanta Rockies. Wait that is already taken.

He can't enroll at a new school until the next semester, and chances are, he'll finish the semester he's currently in. I'm not a fan of transfers midseason for that reason. He's on scholarship for this semester and will remain so even though he has left the team. At least that's how I understand the process works. If it's not, someone please correct me.

 

[Weezer]

what if you stfu?

What if you kiss my ass?

I get it. Don't care. Don't quit on your team before the season is over.

It's the trend now unfortunately. He can talk to coaches without it being illegal to ensure he gets a spot by the spring semester

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Saw the article on Hendon Hooker and if he comes back, honestly if the kid can get drafted, I hope he leaves. I know it’s nice having something sure as a program, however, if Milton can just get out of his own head he is a beast of a QB and with Tayven coming in he needs a redshirt year.

Just my opinion but if Hendo can be drafted he needs to go. No need in staying another year.

Milton sucks and isn’t figuring anything out. If Hendo leaves after this year, we are screwed unless we get a grad transfer or Jackson is ready day one.

Where else would Hooker be?

 

[JCP201]

I get why he's leaving. He should wait until the season is over. Leaving now makes him look like a quitter. I am not saying he is one. Seriously, why not just wait until the season is over?

Hooker can get hurt and Milton is not the best. I don't get why he doesn't wait, either.

 

[barrylee]

Yep….. just a life long Vol fan that has a little bit info that shares bc I want info shared with me as well….. This should endnever doubted you but one thing I'm the questions whether I am trolling or not.

I've never doubted you but one thing I'm pretty sure of is there are some who are going to continue to throw shade. It's what they do..

 

[JCVol00]

what if Hooker and Milton both leave this offseason

 

[JCVol00]

We will realistically have;
Hooker
Jackson
Transfer/freshman
Milton/transfer

 

[MemphisVol3]

Why didn’t we throw the deep ball more against Bama? Seems it was open when we tried it

I know I recall one play that we practically had a guaranteed touchdown, and the refs blew the play dead once they saw our receiver would be in the open field, especially with the speed we had there. I believe that would've been the tying TD at the time too.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Where else would Hooker be?

Hooker is currently ranked the 8th QB by Mel Kiper. That's 4th round or better

Tillman jumped. I rewatched that today. It was a good call. He was out of position and tried to fix it and that's what caused the whistle.

Hendon staying creates big problems in our QB room IMO. You aren’t getting a viable transfer if he stays and if he stays you are probably losing Milton… so…
