Who worked with Milton to get him ready for the draft?

It’s obvious that Heup turned him into a decent QB in college and NFL draft pic. But it’s going to take more than being “decent” for him to be able to read a defense and and not take so long to make a decision. No one ever doubted his ability and what he can do. Issue is he don’t make decisions quick enough, and Nico was indeed a better QB than Milton.

quote:

When he opted out of the bowl game, so Nico could get tickets sales up for bowl game.

Nico is a better QB than Milton, not really a debate. Nico can do things Milton has never done in his career. Milton has never thrown a TD pass while scrambling outside the pocket in his college career. Nico is accurate while moving to his left or right, and isn’t scared to run the ball. At time Milton should have took off, but instead held the ball for 6 seconds and got sacked because he was scared to run the ball. We all seen Nico ability against a top ranked defense like Iowa. Also to note, Iowa didn’t have any major opt outs and they really wanted to win that game as their HC got spanked the last time they played Tennessee in a bowl game.

Odd that Nico couldn't ever beat out Milton.

I just thought it was odd to sit Joe out of the bowl. I always thought you get better by playing in games and to me he deserved to play.

When it got close to the Citrus bowl and I was hearing Joe was opting out. I started looking at stub hub and when it was announced Nico was starting. The tickets started flying.
