Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[DeusExMachina]

Hey brethren and sisteren. When y'all raise a glass this evening, could you raise one for the best damn father in law a dude could ever ask for?? My wife's dad, AQ3 S.K. Eddingfield, USN (Ret.) passed on this morning at 1125. Thanks in advance.

 

[UTSuave’]

It would help a lot if people would not come on here and just make crap up.

Not from me. Just said “apparently”

 

[HankHill]

Bajakian’s offenses at UT were horrendous 106th and 83rd , Debord was a much better OC

Debored had a much better offensive group to work with. Bajakian laid the foundation for dobbs imo and has made a name for himself in the nfl.

Hurts is better than JG. But, we only have him for one year. He would start here, but JG would transfer. That means in 2020 we have a freshman in Bailey and 2 other unproven QB's battling for starting time in the SEC. None of whom have any experience. Its a gamble. But Hurts gives us a better chance at winning this season imo.

Your completely not even considering system. Nothing about Chaney past QBs and systems says Hurts would fit here. JG on other hand is an exact fit for what Chaney has worked with and helped. Crompton and Bray ring a bell for guys not exactly ones you want having to do so much so you simplify their reads and let the sling it?

Another Chaney note from utsports article. In 2012-2014 for 3 straight yrs Chaney offenses had the fewest sacks allowed. That has to be music to Jgs ears.

Right on, brother.

 

[HankHill]

Hard pass on hurts.

I like who we have.

I love who we got coming.

Would gladly take hurts this year. That assures us 6wins if he starts every game for us. His legs alone will get us through non conf easily.

 

[Vols_Life]

Kinda sad to see Chaney has a degree in Physical Education. He may need to go to class himself. Glad to have him! GBO!

Would have loved to see what Jake would have done that following year with how our offense looked at the end of his last yr. offense was near unstoppable with all the plays we ran out of that Dobbs/Von jet sweep.

 

[butchna]

there's talk out there that says Tee is an upgrade at WR coach over DJ......some evidence that could support it considering some of the WR's they churned out at USCw.

And for the defense Anthony Miller, former walkon ballin out for the Bears. That’s development and coaching up!

 

[head1]

You guys serious? a divide in the locker room? i would hope having a legit QB who can actually get us scoring points would unite the team pretty efficiently. On top of that it seems like Hurts has been a pretty low key guy for the most part, i know most QBs in his spot wouldn't have taken that situation as well as he did. We would be instantly 2 wins better with him on our roster. IMO. It's like inserting Dobbs for Worley but probably even more so of a benefit.

Hurts is not the concern. JG being told to sit his last year of eligibility after being here for 4 years, and anyone in his camp, would be.

You can consider any system you want, JG can't play brother. He's a below average QB in this league.

 

[drvenner]

Never said I believed it? That was your assumption not mine I just stated that it’s been said on here?

"Apparently" does not mean "I read on here."

Because I don't know anything about football. I just watch it on tv.

 

[engineerVOL]

Just catching up, Bass that’s an amazing stat about Chaney’s last 5 QBs being drafted.

Glasses will be raised. Very sorry for your loss. Prayers for all of you.

Could not have picked a more perfect fit:

“I’m thrilled to announce Jim Chaney as our offensive coordinator,” Pruitt said. “Jim couldn’t be a better fit for our program at the University of Tennessee. His track record of success guiding offenses speaks for itself from his time at Purdue with Drew Brees to his time in the NFL and his success in the SEC at Georgia, Arkansas, and, of course, previously with the Vols.

“What most impresses me about Jim is his knowledge of the game and also the way he has adapted his offenses to his players’ strengths. He’s had years where he has guided one of the nation’s top passing offenses and years where his offenses have been near the top in rushing. He could coach every position on offense and is a true teacher of the game.

“Jim has proven to be a great mentor for young men, and I’m excited to have him here at Tennessee.”

I know it's just lip service and I don't know if it's actually true but I love hearing that a coach will adapt to the players. You saw Chad Morris fail miserably this year because of his inability to do that, and Butch was the same way. I think the mark of a great football coach is one who works with what he's got instead of making what he's got try to work in his system. I don't know that Chaney actually does that, but hopefully he does.

Duh. Thanks

I just found out this morning as well. ha

But Hurts gives us a better chance at winning this season imo.

After watching the Bama game Monday, I think JG has been underrated. Tua was constantly pressured--threw interceptions, and seemed average. I wonder how he would do with our offensive line and receivers? JG was pressured non-stop, and he still made great passes and seldom threw an interception. That said, I think a Dobbs like quarterback like Hurts is good when your OL doesn't hold long, but hopefully Pruitt is fixing this.

IMO, forget Hurts, (if this is even a possible get) keep JG, and let the other quarterbacks fight to take his place.

 

[jave36]

Both were well below average OC. Neither could adjust at all.

 

[BruinVol]

Said it last night

Chaney should end the talk of Hurts. Bad fit

We are better off anyway

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Just catching up, Bass that’s an amazing stat about Chaney’s last 5 QBs being drafted.

Even Peterman. This dude can coach QB's. And Kirby demoted him to TE coach. Kirby's recruiting will keep him there. But he is not a good coach right now.

Listening to everyone on radio this morning, they have all talked about how Chaney has ran a variety of different systems, fitting what he does to the current players he has. Seems like that's exactly what he does.

Does Georgia even have a football staff anymore?

lol, now we are taking JG over Tua. This forum is the best.

I've said this for years about QBs. Even Brady looks horrendous when he's under pressure (see first half of SB against Falcons) and then all of a sudden looks like a HoF when he has a clean pocket and wide open receivers (see 2nd half of SB against Falcons). QB get WAY too much credit and blame, supporting cast, especially the OL, don't get nearly enough.
