Hasn't he been in college for like a decade? Not saying he isn't a top prospect, but he will be something like a 26 year old rookie, if age matters at all. I remember that being one of the hits against Pickett last year.

He's getting up there, would be 25, he's a senior +1.  5 months younger than Darnold haha.

He still has to play UGA as well.  The UT offense is that fast pace spread offense that their coach used at UCF and I'm not sure how well it will translate.  Hooker has a decent arm and decent speed, but nothing elite that will give him an advantage at the next level.  He has his age working against him, but I do think he is a very smart QB which can take you pretty far.  I just don't see him as more than a great backup and possibly decent starter.  Nothing that should have him drafted in the top 10, which is where will be drafting.  In the 2nd or 3rd then maybe, but you would have a QB that is pretty similar to Corral.  A college offense with decent speed and arm strength that got banged up a little last year running against college defenses.

Holy poo he’ll be that old? No wonder he is playing so well he is a grown ass man beating up on teenagers 

And that's my biggest concern with him as a prospect. Dude is someone who should had been in the NFL at least 2 years ago that is playing against 19-20 year olds. If we're trading back, give me Grayson Mccall or Tanner McKee.

After his performance beating Alabama this week it'll be a name often brought up as our next QB.

I know , I know he's not from Alabama or Ohio, schools people want their qbs to come from( not too sure why, most have sucked in the NFL)..

But after Saturday yall will realize what us UT fans have known since last year, Hooker is the real deal.

I see a lot of people here gushing over Young and Stroud and they look good, not gonna lie but they are both playing behind the top 2 lines in college football. Hooker is leading the Vols behind the 32nd best O-line. So he's doing a lot more with alot less. 

 

Bring this dude home and let's go get him in 2023.

 

fuging college football fans are the worst.

No kidding. My kids all graduated from there, and they got to see some decent Hokie football at least. Now…ugh. 

What are your thoughts on the new coach

Tough outing for him so far. Their QB and generally the entire offense is embarrassing to the ACC.

    • Brother you've been WR driven for going on almost two decades now.  No need for us to discuss further.
    • First, apologies @MHS831, I know you began this about tackles, and it was good. But... Frank, your post is just another Bryce sucks post. You obviously believe, like your buddy, that if we draft a WR it's all about evaluating Bryce Young or coddling Bryce Young. In short, it would be about improving the damned team. If anything, if Bryce is as destined to fail (or is already a failure right now... irredeemable), then another playmaker at WR would just seal the envelope and send him on his way. In my world, that's a good thing.  If some of you think that Bryce is a lame duck, then why wouldn't you want to set the offense up for the next QB to come in and be dropped into the offense to have success? Or, maybe you think it's all a moot point anyway because Tepper sucks, Dan Morgan sucks, Canales sucks, Ejiro sucks, Brandt Tilis sucks---everybidy sucks! If that's the case, then why does anyone care who or what we draft? Obviously some of you have all the answers and can run a gotdamn franchise better than the FO does now.
    • Yeah man, idk. I’m not super big on looking at the position group overall and damning the group. I’ll do the same with less words for WR. I think Proctor is the ultimate fit because he could be your future left or right tackle or left or right guard. Guys a starter, how much Zavala, Christensen, Curhan, and Corbett did we see last year again? Mauigoa will not be there when we pick, but you take him for the same reason you take Proctor minus maybe the LT. Freeling *could* be an upgrade at LT for the future. You don’t take Miller or Iheanahor because the position flexibility isn’t there, likely RT only guys. Those Utah guys are light in the ass, don’t want. Now I do WR. All extremely unproductive when compared to previous Round 1 WR. Tate- Gone Lemon- Complete player, not a burner, would take at 19 Tyson- Made of glass, Colorado washout  Cooper- Not the best hands. Like 300 of his yards were lucky ass stumble blooper looking poo. Bernard gives you similar but better in the 2nd. KC- Slaps then catches the ball. Lightning fast for about 20 yards. Good return man. poo QBs probably more to unlock. Would take at 19 if Proctor, Freeling, Lemon were gone. Washington guy- Lumbers, the smoothness Canales hyped for TMac, not there with him. We need a different style player.
