He didnt try that hard to get golson either. I mean all he did was take ND to the NC. Worley also put up better numbers in 4A then golson did in 3A.

Yes, He put up Video game like numbers in high school, but couldn't get better than a 3* rating. In college he has played like a walk on qb. Everyone trying to hang their hat on the SC abs UGA game.

The SC game was luck.

And EVERYONE knows The Ga game would have been different if they had Gurly and Marshal in all game.

I know how gut wrenching of a thought this may be for some..... but we outplayed South Carolina. Butch out-coached Spurrier. I know. I know, the thought of this probably makes you rage like no other, but unfortunately it's true. It's very telling that we gave Shaw his first pick in what, 10 games? He was rattled. We were the better team that day and he knew it.

As for Georgia, Worley was just straight up impressive. I suppose he wouldn't have been as impressive if Gurley and Marshal were...... tackling...... him?

Worley may be a SR. And have better command if the offense, but if he can't get the ball to all the talent at WR it won't matter. I'm going to have faith he will be ready this season, but it's hard to be comfortable with that.

Better talent at WR means better route running. Better route running means better QB play.

I hope he can get up on Utah state early allowing us to see Peterman in action. The Florida game was just horrible luck. I believe 2 fumbles was not even his fault and he had a broken thumb. But he wanted to play and win so bad that he tried to play through it. That would take heart that a lot of you couldn't comprehend.

Yeah the coaches see more than we do and you trust cbj decision, blah, blah, blah. Coaches are normal people too. They make bad decisions all the time. Does Worley give us a better chance to win, or is it just a safe decision for cbj?

I don't think starting a QB who is as bad as you seem to think Worley is would be considered "safe" when it comes to your performance as a head coach.

Not knocking Butch, but why would you not play JJ Watt at DE instead of TE?

Manning was what, a 3rd string qb before he desperately got thrown into a game?

I don't know what you're trying to convey here.

Everyone has raved about Petermans camp.
Dobbs looked great in the spring game throwing and running. And Worley sounds like he has not progressed going into his 4th season

I've actually heard quite the opposite. It sounds to me like Worley has done well in practice.

Am I the only one uncomfortable with Worley heading into the season
Click to expand...

I mean I would prefer Marcus Mariotta, but given what we have to work with, I'm more comfortable with Worley that I would be anyone else.

It is hard to fathom what CP must have been like from an opposing players perspective in HS.

CP left after Worley's sophomore year. Thats why he was a jr in college when worley was a freshman!

Look at the progression from Freshman to senior year! SC & Clemson didn't go after him because he had made it known that he was leaving the state. UT was his top location from 10th grade.

and in college, tebow is probably one of the greatest players ever....how'd he fair in the NFL?

We are not talking NFL! Tebow in the right system in college was top 3 college QB's of all time!

Come on you can post better than that!

Once there was a man in tennessee
Who throws a football like he pees
Downward trajectory like a turd in the toilet
Looking bad as a alabama mullet.

There were 2 QB's named Dobbs & Peterman

Monday morning QBs wanted them but CBJ wanted neither of them

So along comes Worley again and out plays both of them

Yet Monday morning QBs are still crying for Dobbs and Peterman

I was a poet and didn't know it!

Mad skills. You managed to rhyme them with them and Peterman with Peterman.

BTW, why do you end every post with your username?

I'll be pleased with over 60% completion and 200+ yards per game with limited interceptions. I don't think it's any secret we want to run the ball more than pass it.

I have seen the impressive Worley passing stats from high school. Since he was throwing to Cordarrelle Patterson for 2 years I have always wondered how many of those yards were after the catch?

Most players in D1 had great HS stats. What your post proves to me is that even though he won all those awards, every recruiting analyst rated him only a 3 star? So even the "experts" thought he was a little overrated compared to his awards. I think he will be improved because he has another year in the system and we have great playmakers surrounding him. I worry about the under-throws and missed throws to open receivers that were too frequent last year. His arm strength worries me. But my main concern is we are now running an offense for the second year in a row that relies heavily on the read option and we have a QB that can't run. That's not a knock on Worley, just an unfortunate position we are in. Congrats to him for winning the job, but his skills are not best suited for this offense imo.

Anyone else remember when Chaney said Bray, Worley, and Peterman were the best group of quarterbacks he'd ever coached.

(This coming from Sjt18 in the Worley starting QB thread..
Which makes ton of sense if people would open up their minds...)

"Jones doesn't run a read option O. His O is a hybrid spread O with west coast elements to it. It is probably more similar to Dave Clawsen's ideal than Urban Meyer's. He has frequently said he wants his QB to pull it a couple of times per game just to keep the D honest but he does NOT need a running QB. He wants playmakers and a QB that gets them the ball.

A QB with mobility is often a good thing... if they can learn that they are not the first or second option.

He has said... ad nauseum that he first and foremost wants someone who manages the offense. I can't really blame you for missing or ignoring it though... a large contingent of UT fans who post here keep acting as they're oblivious to his statements though we've pointed them out many times."

The bottom line is Worley gives this team the best chance to put W's on the board....I can't believe how so many here can't grasp that...I remember lots of you crying wishing we had his services when he was hurt last year....

I was stating that if CBJ couldn't recognize that Watt should have been a DE maybe he could be wrong about starting Worley

Or I could think on the numbers 0-1, which you may recognize as Steve Spurrier's coaching record against a Justin Worley-led team. Ironic, isn't it?

Well, that is pure hogwash. Believe me, none of what you said reference Worley is even close to the truth.
