Found on ITAT.

Iwent to the scrimmage on Saturday and I agree that no QB really stood out.

Sean White came out first with Roc. He didn't do anything spectacular, but didn't force any throws either. He had a 30yd run on a designed play. Looked very comfortable.

Jeremy Johnson came out with Malik Miller 2nd. He had an excellent pass to Roc on a wheel route for a TD and JJ also had a nice run up the middle. Before the scrimmage though during a 5 on 5 drill he was making some pretty bad passes without having a defensive line present to put pressure on him.

JF3 came out with Jovon 3rd. JF3 is VERY fast, had probably a 70 yd run blowin by guys up the side line. He is very small though and a couple of hits he took I'm pretty sure the defense went easy on him. They could have absolutely laid him out. I'm no expert, but I think he needs a lot of work before he is a starting SEC QB. When he throws it just looks like he's blindly heaving it out there. He overthrew a couple of deep balls, but he was throwing to the 3rd string WRs, I believe Jason Smith or someone else would have gotten under the ball.

That being said, I see Sean White starting. I feel he looks the most comfortable and can manage the game more effectively.

2. according to tracey turner on wnsp yesterday, as a letterman he was at practice and observed all three. his assessment was that SW was the clear leader at the time. received approx. 20 snaps in the start with the 1's. made a good run, and had some good throws. his only fear is that he can get hurt again due to his stature. JJ and JFIII got 35 - 40 reps each, but struggled in their own right. JJ still making errant passes and shy to get hit. JFIII just didn't look comfortable, and was REALLY SMALL. made mistakes that are intolerable, but also has that "wow factor" speed. he says it is a race for the backup position behind SW at this point. he says clearly things can change, but there has to be some incredible improvement amongst those two to press for the starting position. just one man's opinion, but interesting nevertheless.

3. I actually got to go watch practice yesterday, here are some of my notes:

SW looked off. Even in drills where its just him and the WR, he was almost never right on the money. Rhett had him "hit his chin" multiple times in the few minutes I watched QBs.

JJ was the most accurate, but also still has a problem staring down receivers. Did make some good decisions in the situation part of practice.

JF3 is good but inconsistent. He'll hit his receiver in stride on one play, then the next he'll miss by 5 yards. Very strong arm, almost took Jason Smith's head off on an In route in 7-on-7 drills.

QBs were back in non-contact jerseys

Kyle Davis looks the part. Very big receiver. I was very impressed with him.

T-Will brings the energy. He was out there yelling and screaming when his LBs beat the H-Backs in 1-on-1 drills.

Lawson is an animal (is anyone surprised?

Punt return - K. Davis, J. Smith, Rudy

Chandler Cox looked like he was favoring his right knee. Had a sleeve over it, but no brace.
