Speaking nothing of work ethic. Only the great hope of fans, year after year when it’s becoming apparent it’s not going to happen. I’m sure he’s awesome as a person, but so was JG

I admit it’s an early call on my part, and I’ll take lumps if wrong. Just my opinion
See folks...this right here is what pisses me off.

It’s amazing how the local media goes after the program like they do. It would never happen at other bigtime programs in the SEC. But for some reason Tennessee media love to hate on UT and live to dig up dirt/focus on the negative/if it bleeds it leads. Just a bunch of a holes if you ask me. If I were the AD or HC I wouldn’t let them around the program at all. Zero access.
While I get this point, I don’t like that solution.. mostly because of my experience with video games. I’m so used to video games urinalists painting every game as perfection so they can keep on good terms with games developers to maintain their early access privileges. Namely EA and Madden. Up until this year they got an 8-10 every single year for doing nothing but updating the roster. Other games are guilty of it too.

Not to mention the reverse being true and games sacrificing half their fan base to go full on SJW because IGN will bitch and moan about how they aren’t using their platform to squash “social injustice” if they just make a good game instead.

Sorry for the rant.

I think most people just need to see HB for what he is, and a bit of that isn't his own fault.

1. COVID hits when he comes on campus and there's no work happening until Fall camp, so with a returning senior ahead of him he didn't get any meaningful camp or reps.
2. Season starts and the HC himself said they hadn't even seen what he could do 3 or 4 games in the season and the HC/OC were basically saying they didn't know what they had in Bailey.

This was his first real spring ball and he had to do it with a brand new staff/offense to learn. I think he's more like a freshmen than a 2nd year guy with 6 starts under his belt. Mainly because of COVID and also now learning a new system.
