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.

    • this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.  
    • The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.
    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
