Anyone who is anti-any QB on our roster has some messed up priorities and needs to gtfo now.

Correct, I am for the Vol QB who can step up and be the man. I really don't care who it is as long as we get a lot more production from that position than we had last season. My guess is its Worley's job to lose since he has the most experience.

This is cause imo Dooley sold UT not just him. IMO why Dooley didn't go the super early commitment route. Both he and the recruit had to be 100% committed.

I like Fergy, got a gut feeling he's gonna be something special. Maybe not this yr, but eventually. I really do wish Worley and Peterman (if he doesn't transfer) eventually. I like Dobbs, but for some reason I just don't see him being the final guy. He may be to smart, and has aspiration bigger than being the next PM. Which is great, but being on the team may just be a means to get his degree for free. Especially cause he is an out of state student.

I will admit I'm old school so I hope CBJ has Fergy wear long sleeves cause I can't understand the prison tats for a kid his age, but I think the kid is a baller. In a sense, Arghh hate to say this, may have the Bray swagger. The only good thing is he has actual competition to ground him. Something Bray didn't, so he could be as bratty as he wanted. Once the fergs grasps it he will do well imo. Again though I really do hope Worley and Peterman figure a way to leave UT on a positive note, cause they are Vols.

So to all my followers...the above is just IMHO. Which means...documentation not needed.

Riley is a legacy. His granddad had a basketball scholarship at UT before leaving because he couldn't live with his wife.

Dooley doesn't get all the credit for Ferguson committing or staying with UT after Dooley was fired & Butch was hired.

Heck DD didn't even send coaches to see Vonn Bell

I don't care who it is just someone please step up to he plate and deliver the goods. Arm, vision, decisiveness, confidence, and leadership. Find (or develop) that player and put him on the field.

He doesn't have to be Johnny Foosball to get it done, but all of those qualities need to be there in significant amount.

I don't know if you ever saw this or even if you are interested but about halfway through this interview he addresses the tatoo question and I think it somewhat reveals his motivations.

Old school? Dude, I promise people have had tattoos since wayyyyy before you were born. And I'm sure Butch Jones isn't as ignorant as you are to want a kid to cover up his tattoos. I'll be so glad when alllll the folks that think like you are long gone.

Now I will admit, Fergs tattoos are very $h*++* when you compare them to actual good tattoos from a good shop, but if he likes them, that's really all that matters.

Tattoos got huge in America in the 1880's, when the first tattoo gun was invented. Most of them look like crap though...

Not so much in 2014. I lived in Boston for a few years and lots of professionals there have tattoos. I'd actually be willing to bet that half of our coaching staff are tattooed.

Personally, I own a locksmith business in South Carolina and you'd be surprised how many compliments I get from the 60+ crowd when I go into their homes to change their locks. I've literally been told "wow your tattoos are nice, they don't look like the prison style Harley tattoos" lol. And as you can see in my avi, mine go from hand to shoulder. Now, if a little ole lady can see the difference, I'd hope a 40 year old football coach can.

A quick Google search tells me that George Whitfield has recently worked with Ben Roth, Cam Newton, Andrew Luck, and Johnny Manz...

I like it.
