Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Smokeytom]

I think how well JG has taken care of the football gets overlooked by too many of his naysayers.

Kid just doesn't throw INTs and his few fumbles have been bc of blindside hits.

 

[butchna]

I was going for hyperbole. Since D4H ain't here and all.

Also I’m not sure Pruitt is the type of coach to let a player hold a transfer over his head for PT. If he is, then we’re not getting back any time soon and the cycle will repeat soon enough.

Trust me. He is not allowing that.

 

[BigOrange15]

Because that was the game plan and it was a good game plan, it seems to me.

Iyam, it played to our strengths better than any gameplan I have seen at UT since Lane Kiffin specifically schemed the offense for Crompton.

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

What’s his % beyond ten yards. He almost threw 40 times and hand 200 yards

Not sure about career but this is right before Scar game. 43% isn’t great, about average View attachment 173977

FTR, that's 43% past 20 yards.
According to that throw chart, he's 12/20 on 10-19 yard passes and 13-30 on 20+yarders, so that would put him right at 50% on throws 10+ yards.

Agreed. It was good enough to win the game, for sure.

It was definitely the best game Helton has called so far. Interesting how working the short passing game and changing up 1st down playcalling can help out a struggling OL. Almost magical, perhaps

5 of those 20+ completions are from Aub, 10 Attempts

Oops. Didn’t realize he said ten yards lol

Good thread for those interested

Been saying this all year! The "transfer" stat is the one JG is winning against KC and it why he's starting. JMO

EDIT: And I'm saying this not as a JG hater. I think all you have to do is look at the roster to understand that if JG and KC are even remotely close JG is going to get the nod for this reason.

I feel that McBride will transfer, nothing against the kid but there just isn't a place for him in this offense going forward. I'm still curious about Shrout, early word on him was he had a rocket arm but I haven't hear anything since Camp. I would love to see him get some playing time against Charlotte.

Why would you hear anything about a redshirt?

Well, usually the redshirt is the best QB on the team and I'd like to hear more about the best QB on the team.

Illegal substitution penalties. We had 2-3 last night.

Think we've had at least 1-2 of these every game.

Also recall we got called for illegal formation a few times on the punt team in the WVU game but seems to be corrected.

Growing pains.

Georgia game. We had I think 3. Maybe WVU too but Ik for sure Uga

 

[SmokinBob]

It shouldn't have been a surprise win at all. We beat Auburn OTR and Auburn is probably a better team than SCAR, which had been struggling. We should have won that game, even with the egregious calls and no-calls. I don't see why so many UT fans want to tiptoe around being mad at a loss. We should be mad as hell, the players should be mad as hell and the coaches should be mad as hell about blowing a lead and finding a way to lose. Get mad, then channel that anger into action. None of which says anything about firing anybody or putting blame on any one position group.

I agree with you. There are those who overreact and I think that overreaction is what the article was referring to. Be that as it may, lets keep getting better.

I don't disagree. CJP can't afford to lose both KC and JG before next season.

Austin Price alluded to McBride being a candidate to look elsewhere after the year (because he apparently didn't make the trip to Columbia)..

Also said Shrout still needs to grow in the offense (duh) and Maurer is lighting up the scoreboard against middle-tier competition in HS. There's still some possibility we chase the QB transfer market, but don't look so hard at Jalen Hurts.

Just paraphrasing from the Sunday show he does with Troy and Swain

Did Shrout go?

 

[ChismsHeadband]

Did Shrout go?

I dunno, I assume not if they're redshirting him. It'd be a freakish sort of situation for both JG and KC to get knocked out.

 

[Smokey123]

 

[Skizer41]

If he thought JG would transfer if he didn't play him, guess what Pruitt would do. He would let him go.

You're wrong in my opinion. Under normal circumstances I would agree. Not with where we are at just starting a rebuild. We'll just have to agree to disagree on this one. But it really doesn't matter now anyway haha.

I would be shocked if they didn't take 3. Redshirting wouldn't be much of a factor imo
