Nico is a 0 star

 

[Vols4us]

Say what you want - Nico is not reading coverages or anticipating at all. It is a shame because the D is so good.

 

[AllVol11717]

This is on Heup, kid should be way more prepared than this

He should’ve gotten more starts at the end of last year. Getting Joe drafted in the 6th round wasn’t worth not letting Nico make his early mistakes in a year that already didnt matter

 

[gainesvol82]

Nico chose this path. He wanted to sit and learn as a freshman. I think he still turns out great but he is making too many immature plays.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Nico’s decision making is so bad. I’m starting to worry.

Has to actually see the guy open for a second before he throws it. Then by that time it’s wayyyy late. It’s pathetic.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

All off yall flipping on Nico cause he's not Joe Montana/Vick yet, are you gonna stay gone when he starts lighting people up?

 

[SoilVol]

Y'all remember when some wanted Nico to play LAST year in favor of Joe Milton? Lol

 

[KB5252]

Where in the hell is our pass rush?

 

[TrippieRedd]

Should’ve known he was overrated when someone said he played better in 7v7 events than he did in HS.

 

[GVol1966]

Do we have a single decent qb on the roster

Not unless it’s Merklinger or Navy and the only way you’ll ever know is if Nico and More get hurt

 

[volinbama256]

at this point with the 38 mistakes we've made, just sit Nico for the day. I said it early in the week and got slammed for it, but we just aren't ready yet... more L's incoming... Pathetic we are doing this at HOME.

 

[Orange_Crush]

Can’t blame the kid for trying to make a play. There was a spark.

Who in the hell do you blame for that interception then. The fact that there was a spark is an excellent reason NOT TO THROW IT TO THE OTHER TEAM IN OJUR RED ZONE!

 

[KPT_VFL]

Sadly we can still win.

 

[Vols4us]

This is the kinda sh*t he would've learned not to do last year if he played.

Yup. Which would have been timed perfect with our D.

 

[buffaloblue]

lol. I agree. Still thinking the same about Joe Milton. One day.

If he is doing this in year 2 or 3 of playing I’m concerned and he’s replaced. It’s very frustrating but I still believe

 

[UTK]

jermod needed to stay on his feet on that pick. That was our chance at points

 

[I4Jay]

JERMOD MCCOY IS A DAWGGGGGGGGGGGG

 

[JP_UT_O&W]

Man, all y'all clamoring for Merk just saw what Gaston did...and y'all see what Nico, a freak athlete, has been doing behind all this pressure from the OL...Nico is the QB

 

[I4Jay]

we need a special teams TD

 

[jave36]

The lost art of throwing it 15 rows up when a play breaks down. Gaston and Nico slept through that lesson.

Bring back Joe as QB coach

 

[VolsnCards5]

There is no way that Bama and UT are two of the top 15 teams in the country

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Defense!

 

[tomq_123]

Defense is a beast.

It’s not gonna happen man

Peyton Manning threw a metric ton of INTs early in his TN career and as an NFL rookie. Nico will bounce back.

But the rookie mistakes are painful to watch
