UTK Nate? Jk bassMan, watching SEC nation and seeing GA and Bama’s players and they are just so much bigger and stronger than us it’s ridiculous. I’m glad we have coach fitz. I think he’s gonna get us right.
Who else is excited about the shirtless fall camp pics next year when we finally see some real gainz?!?

And a great arm and accuracy and a lot of other good traits. He has not proven that he can manage a pocket well, read D's, or make timely decisions on a consistent basis. Some people "hate" JG... I don't. I recognize he has some great strengths but his weaknesses are apparent too. They've prevented him from being as good as he can be.... and have been costly to the team at times. Both this year and last, the coaches have managed around his weaknesses. The last game was a great win. But if the D hadn't held up in the 2nd half... UT would have lost. They trust JG to do some things but not others. Even with some limitations he threw some balls that maybe should have been picked.JG has proved his guts and toughness.
This sounds like all of the posts about Dobb's weaknesses. Some ignore how well he has done at certain things to get the stats or worse blame him for everything wrong on the offense... Can't we celebrate how much he has improved without going over and over what he's not improved on?And a great arm and accuracy and a lot of other good traits.

When he starts being able to consistently read D's, deliver the ball on time, and manage the O at a high level then I'll be glad to say he's arrived. Too many just look at certain "stats" or things like that and call him "great". Or worse, they blame the rest of the team for everything. JG's problems haven't only come under pressure. He has a bad habit of missing open receivers.
