Heath Shuler was the biggest disappointment of the NFL, now he is working Knxville right?? I like the 2 different styles of QB that UT has, it could work, just depends on how much these 2 are willing to share the spotlight.....but I believe Ainge will start next week. THe young guy showed composure and executed when under pressure. if these 2 work together and are show unselfishness, then in a couple of years, they WILL dominate.

Why fix it if it isnt broken. Thats what i say, the 2 QB system is working just fine, so dont change it. They are so good and are so different it really makes it tough on opposing D's. Its like you have lil Vick and Manning out there, they are awesome. I'm just excited to see Clausen gone, this is the UT football i have missed the last 4 years.

I am not the only one who couldn't stand Casey Clausen??? thank goodness, He is filled with more hot air than a hot air balloon. He will NEVER make it in the pros...why do u think he wasn't drafted. and he couldn't make it with the Chiefs or Titans...what a loser

 

Better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt....

 

You sound like a fair weather fan. Casey Clausen was an AWESOME QB...2nd most passing yards in school history. AND he beat Florida IN Florida TWICE

I didn't like him but it was because of the image he seemed to have in the press. He may be a great guy, but I just never liked him too much as a QB.

Amen to that hs sports fan. Finally we have a dominating O-Line and some running backs who are running hard, thanks to RB coach Trooper Taylor. I like both Schaeffer and Ainge but I was upset with Schaeffer's indecision last night on passing plays. He definately has a freshman's mind in some way because he would pull the ball down instead of checking down to other receivers. Ainge has a better sense of patience and stood in the pocket for longer. Either way I like how both of them are playing. They both play well above their experience level and are seeming the adapt to the college game very well. And I can say for the first time in a long time that finally Randy Sanders is calling some good plays. I love the system of checking off at the line...it works very well I think. Great win for the Vols, Wilhoit is the man. Colquitt for Heisman, I'll say that all season.

There are situations where Shaffers ability to scramble will be a huge asset, but when you are behind and gotta throw it, Ainge is the man right now. Not too sure Shaffer has the ability to make the checkoffs right now. If you ask the receivers, bet they vote Ainge. :rolleyes:

 

If Shaffer develops over the year and becomes an accomplised passer and makes the correct reads, he could be deadly. Tee started off as a runner, but developed into a complete QB.

While Ainge did an excellant job Saturday I think in the end it will be Schaeffer. Ainge reminds me of Bret Farve more than say Peyton. He (ainge) has such a strong arm that already he is developing a tendency to force things a little. He got away with it this weekend, but eventually it will catch up with him. But hey it sure is a great problem to have.

    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
