Vs Virginia and AP. This is absolutely unacceptable.

Milton aint it. An inaccurate QB will destroy the rythm of your entire team.

I got very tired of watching mediocrity during the Dooly, Butch and Pruitt years.

I learned something during those years. When fans see something bad early on their first thing to say is keep riding with coach butch or dools or jarret guarantamo aka the worst P5 QB ever. They just need more "time."

No not really....you can not magically fix a bad QB not a bad coach. They are what they are.

We have seen Milton look pedestrian against two bad teams now. Yes some WRs dropped passes, but that tells me they just aren't in rhythm with Milton because he's so on and off and does not throw a good catchable ball.

It's very rare if he does. His throws are too fast and behind the WRs majority of the time. Yes the WRs should still catch it but most of those same guys caught it fine with Hooker out there.

I say start Nico. We know for a fact now what Milton is. A very inconsistent QB who limits what plays your OC can call.

Our OC doesn't even trust Milton to throw it deep vs Austin Peay ffs! Unacceptable.

Bring out Nico for Florida. I don't care if we lose with him because we are probably going to lose with Milton.

He can make his freshman mistakes because he's our future and mediocrity is absolutely unacceptable.

Fun fact: Dobbs first real action was against a really good number one ranked Bama team as a true freshman.

And he played pretty well too. We instantly saw his "it" factor that is nowhere to be seen by Milton. The eye test rarely lies. Florida is not a good team. Nico can handle this if he is what we believe him to be. I'm done with Milton's inconsistency.

Enter the other vol fans to call me a bad fan or a negavol or an idiot.

My messages to you guys is you are the reason why JG was our starting QB for so long. You are the reason why we accepted garbage coaches for so long instead of just canning them immediately and throwing the kitchen sink at the best prospect coaches out there. frick all of you clowns.

Go frick yourself pussy. Milton is going to look like absolute garbage again in the swamp. They do not trust him to throw down the field anymore.

7/24 on third downs against two absolute cupcakes is unacceptable. It's not all Milton's fault but 90 percent of it is.

Even Tyler Bray as a true freshman would be a HUGE upgrade. Ride with Nico ffs.

Florida is only allowing 21% conversion on 3rd down so that's reassuring.

Seriously though, starting a True Freshman for the first time in the Swamp is retarded.

"You sir are retarded"

Pretty spot on for a retard. I like Milton, but don't want to throw a season away so that his feelings aren't hurt. If he can't move the offense, get someone in there who can.

We DO have another option, you know.

You're praying like hell that we don't make the switch.

Spurrier and Meyer are no longer in the swamp. The swamp is no longer a scary place and your defense is just meh.

If Nico is what we think he is, he will be fine. Tyler Bray played extremely well as a true freshman for us under Dooley.

You are telling me that Nico can't as a true freshman under Heupel???

Get over the true freshman label ahd play the best player!!!!!

Dobbs looked very good as a true freshman on the road against a much better Alabama team than this year's weak UF squad.

Milton currently has the longest FBS streak of consecutive passes without an interception. He is now at 239 consecutive passes without an INT. He will be fine.

Bumped because this is the truth and most of Volnation are a bunch of retards who can't handle it!!!

Nico is the future not Milton. Milton simply dies not have the "it" factor at QB and he maks everyone else around him play badly as well because everyone is out of rythm together.

Nico has that magic "it" factor. I saw it all through out camp and i saw it in his very limited action against Virginia.

You can just see it how a QB naturally feels in the pocket and how he senses the pressure around it ahd shifts around to avoid it and make the play.

Also as a true freshman, he already has has a much quicker release than Milton.

Milton is not confident back there and looks awkward in the pocket and too much of a frickin pussy to take off and run when he has wide open lanes.

Seriously..... how does a guy that big and strong look like such a timid pussy back there?

Looks like Tarzan plays like Jane.

A very naturally talented QB who played under Dooley and had a very long career as a backup QB in the NFL.

Had a cannon for an arm and great pocket awareness and ability to evade the rush despite being slow as molasses too.

He definitely had that "it" factor just needed a real coach to be a superstar in college.

That's because 90 percent of his passes are to the sideline or a screen!!!!

You idiots said the same thing about JG!!!!

Inflated stats by BS safe play calling because the QB sucks throwing down the field into traffic.

Wake up!!!!!! Last night was literally like watching JG part 2!!!

Surely Heupel sees and knows this. He tried to start Milton over Hooker too who only got to play because Milton got injured....thank god or jast season nay have never happened as Heuepel seems to be too in love with Milton's arm.

You better pray we don't. Nico actually has that dawg in him that Milton does not.

Milton plays like he doesn't really want to win and is more concerned about protecting his body for a possible NFL career. Looks like Tarzan plays like Jane.

frick that! Give me a true warrior at QB like Hendon freakin Hooker or Stetson freakin Bennet.

Someone who wants to and is willing to do ANYTHING to get that next first down and win.

Milton is basically Harrison Bailey part 2 with a cannon of an arm.

We are only ONE real QB from looking like last year on offense again.

Nico is that QB imo. Lets him start and make his early mistakes and ride with him instead.

Milton plays like a pussy and is clearly scared of taking off when there are multiple running lanes available.

He'd rather look off all the WRs down the middle and throw it to the sidelines instead. frick that!!! Unacceptable!!!
