Thanks Joe Milton

[ftsandersvol]

Thank you Joe. You’re a true VFL. You stuck it out through the hard times and worked hard to get better. I only wish you the best in the future.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Love ya Joe. Now go win the bowl game in style! Then on to the next level where you can keep making us proud.

What could have been if Joe had better protection and WRs had way too many drops, he didn't have an elite WR, he fought all year, maybe a few outings that could have been better but 30 TDs and 5 ints ain't bad for past 2 years, not bad at all
Thank you Joe you are a true VFL

Joe helped his NFL draft stock significantly today. I believe he will get drafted and a pro opportunity and best of luck to him.

The interview he gave just now on the postgame show is worth a listen. If I can post it here later, I will.

I was listening while also navigating post-game traffic. I heard the question regarding playing in a bowl. From what I could tell he didn't really commit to playing in the bowl and talked about his career both at UT and Michigan. And the person doing the interview didn't follow up asking for a yes or no. Again - was trying to merge into traffic and was more focused on driving than listening during the interview but did notice he never really talked about playing in the bowl game.

Some team will see he can throw a football through a steel beam and take a chance to coach him up. Keep in mind, he won't be playing in an offense like Tennessee's at the NFL level so it makes it really hard to grade him.

Milton will get drafted and get a shot in the NFL. How he handled himself these past few years along with his size and arm strength will be attractive to many teams.

I understood from his interview with Swain that Milton plans to lead the team in the bowl game.

If Joe doesn't make it to the NFL just look back at how many past Vol QB's never made it there and some of them were darned good. It would be fun to watch a NFL game where Hooker and Milton ( or Dobbs) are opposing each other.

He will go pro...

 

[volinbham]

Thanks Joe!

 

[aWhiteLoftonChism]

He is better than Anthony Richardson was

I think he will definitely play in the NFL. He will blow them away with his numbers at the combine. I think he will be drafted in the 2nd or 3rd round.

Thanks Joe!!!! VFL and a good guy! Best of luck going forward!

id be shocked if he doesn't start in the bowl game.

Anyone who is frustrated with Milton wasn’t a Tennessee fan when we had those JG years!

 

[Malivol]

Thanks for what? He is JG w a better arm

He had all that last year. He was awful before he got hurt, just like he was awful this year.

 

[sami]

Thanks for all he did here, a true VFL who kept his head up and kept on working. I'd love to see him make it in the NFL, and hopefully he can return someday to the program in some manner. Best of luck, big fella.

 

[Mccage]

I laughed today reading the game thread. One guy was calling Joe names and of course a few followed suit. It was in the first half and Joe had 250 yds and had already threw 3 TDs and ran for another. I personally think Joe has received the most unwarranted scrutiny in Vol history . Makes me really ashamed at times. This s—t needs to stop! For those who don’t believe this hurts the program and recruiting are either ignorant or fans of other teams.

Thank you Joe

 

[Vol Farmer]

I wasn’t always your biggest supporter but you have been a huge inspiration and influence on the community. Thank you for being a VFL and giving your all for Tennessee Football. Good luck at the next level.

 

[Mose Phillip's Watch]

Love Joe !!!

Go lead us to a Bowl victory!

 

[Carl Pickens]

He had all that last year. He was awful before he got hurt, just like he was awful this year.

You’re like the guy that shows up at the party that everyone was hoping wouldn’t show up.

 

[kiddiedoc]

We had 99 problems this year, and Joe wasn't one.

OL protection, receivers getting separation, drops. . .

What could have been.

Milton is a physically-freakish athlete. Somebody in the Bigs will definitely take a shot with him. I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see him flourish in the NFL.

 

[adam.vol]

Thanks for what? He is JG w a better arm

For all the woulda coulda’s that go with Joe, you have Low T if you didn’t get excited over Milton laying out some db’s this year.

 

[Flipdaddy]

Joe carried himself with class and I respect him for that. He’ll always be a VFL that I’m proud of.
