"If recent history taught us anything, it’s that you don’t have to have a ton of on-field experience to break out and have a Heisman season (see: Manziel, Johnny in 2012, and Winston, Jameis in 2013). If a redshirt freshman can win the trophy, I think it’s reasonable to assume that a junior who has five starts under his belt can do it too -- someone like Tennessee quarterback Joshua Dobbs.
The Vols are trending up and some have gone so far as to say they could win the SEC East in 2015. If that happens, Dobbs likely will be a big reason for that rise. He’s a dual-threat quarterback, capable of beating teams with his arm and his legs. He showed grit, poise and leadership during his time behind center in the second half of last season.
The 6-foot-3, 212-pound Dobbs helped lead a late comeback win over South Carolina with 301 passing yards, 166 rushing yards and five combined touchdowns in his first start, and he was 4-1 as a starter. A full season starting could see him approach 3,000 passing yards and 1,000 rushing yards, and if that goes along with a lot of Tennessee wins -- maybe a 10-win regular season? -- it might be enough to get him a seat at Heisman ceremony.
If Dobbs has a big game and can lead the Vols to an early-season victory over Oklahoma on Sept. 12, that would certainly get the Heisman conversation started."

I figured a dumbass Bammer would be the first with a smart arse reply since one of their players is also on the list.
I don't need a list to tell me about Reuben Foster's Mensa membership.

Dobbs may be super intelligent. He may be the next great Vols QB. He may very well win the East this year.
The guy still creeps me out. I mean come on. No insult intended but he is seriously weird looking.

He has a medical condition. I don't know why that is so hard for people to understand.

State has a good aerospace program. Friend of mine is currently interning at Ames. State also didn't pass on Dobbs at all and recruited him until the end.

What if he's failing all of them
In fact, he is failing all of them. The only reason he's still on the team is that his profs give him D's to keep him eligible. He is one dumb guy and can't hold a candle to anyone at Duke and Stanford.

What's funny is that you think you're funny. Link proof of any of us predicting Tennessee winning the East in 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014. You lying piece of shite.

Do I need to link proof that Vols would beat UF?
Cause I am not going to do that but still talk shite that y'all predict it every year.

Just asking for a friend (future me) that is 100% guaranteed to point out that every year Vols fans say this is the year to beat UF but UF wins.
I don't want to meet V&S over the middle.

That's understandable, Luke Keuchly doesn't even wanna meet V&S coming over the middle.
FTR: I will not predict us to beat Florida, until we actually beat Florida.
