Robby was a D- on my grading system because he’s an excellent runner. Playmaker runner. So about as low as I could and comparing him to other SEC QBs I would put him in the bottom 3.
Thorne is a pretty sizable upgrade but currently I don’t think someone that hasn’t gone throw spring practice and has to win the job in the fall you can put in the top half of the conference.
Currently I would rank the QB rooms based on expected starters to be something like this…
LSU
Arky
UK
MSU
aTm
UGA
USCe
AU
UT
OM
UF
Bama
Mizz
Vandy

Nice premise however you may be losing people who're extrapolating SEC values to fit the whole spectrum of college football. Where each position is generally half a step better (at least) than most other conferences.

-We still don’t have a proven QB

-Hugh isn’t calling plays
quote:pulled from your booty hole with nothing really to back it up.
-Weak player leadership
quote:you have zero clue about the team chemistry. None. Zero, ziltch. just assumptions based on roster turnover.
-Chemistry is loose, scattered

-Roberts- schemer that may need time before defensive acumen from its leaders

-Best player is currently suspended indefinitely.

Overall I give Hugh an A+ only thing I wish he did different was pull a for sure starter at RG. I don’t know if I can watch Stutts play more football.

Ok then.
Name our leadership and team captains. Jarquez?

Thanks for making my point for me.

Our team has the same chemistry as myself and the person behind me in the Wal mart checkout line while scrolling through Facebook. None
And please enlighten me.
How is our QB proven?
This is deja vu from last year when fans on this very site said “glad to have Calzada. Finally got a real QB!”

I like Thorne and his potential in the offense but he isn't McCall. Be honest with yourself

Look man, you should probably just accept that the vast majority of the time, you are going to be wrong about Qb scouting. Wrong about Sean White, wrong about JF3, wrong about Jeremy Johnson, wrong about Robby Ashford...and now wrong about Payton Thorne.

quote:Thorne was top half of his conference in the Big 10, but he wouldnt finish in the top half in the SEC? In a more passer friendly offense? Come on man. Yall need to get on board with Thorne. We have a future NFL Qb suiting up in orange and blue for us this year. Time to accept it

I never knighted for any of these QBs. I did knight for Bo Nix. And I was right there. Making shite up is still dumb And pointless. Now, you knighted for 2 passing TD wonder, Sean White….

Stats show him less than a 60% passer in conference play. His running back must’ve been great

Hugh calling the plays is what would be bullish. This is the same guy that beat Bama twice.

40 out of 80 something players are brand fricking new. Use some common sense. There will be no chemistry right off the bat.
You’re the dumbass that said we would be contending for the west yet you didn’t bet me. Now bet or shut the frick up.

Well in 2015 he only got 1 TD in 143 passing attempts. Do I need to go on?
Sean White 10 Total TDs, 7 total Interceptions. Huge crack addiction. Arkansas State and Louisiana Monroe Slayer
