It may sound crazy now but if Henson Hooker and the Vols beat Georgia next week and Hooker shows out, there is a legit argument to be made that he is the best QB in this class. 
 

Will Levis worries me, I’m not so sure he has that “clutch gene.” A few weeks ago when he played a game with a number of NFL scouts and GMs in attendance, he played poorly and this game going head to head with Hooker he has played awful. That’s twice now where he could have played lights out under a lot of pressure and folded.

Perspective- Will Levis had thrown the same amount of interceptions in this game alone tonight than Hooker has the COMBINED entire years of this year and last year. That’s just nuts!

Hookers receivers are wide ass open and he has a decent line. And he's 92 years old.

Most NFL teams and scouts will hate the amount of hurry up that Hooker runs.

He’s looked good in Heupel’s offense but he also did not look as good when he was with Virginia Tech, who runs more of a pro style offense.

Not the least bit worried about that, that’s nothing a great offensive minded coach couldn’t coach up. Cam literally ran a one read offense all throughout Auburn and literally didn’t even take a single snap under center during his time at Auburn, and look how he turned out. Hooker has the intangibles and that clutch gene in spades and if he balls out against GA, it’s a wrap

Defenses have changed since Cam killed everyone with the spread. I also don’t think Hooker is close to the player or athlete that Cam was.

I also don’t think Hooker has elite intangibles, I think he’s in a very simplified offense… I mean head to head he lost to Malik Willis and Liberty… in fact, Willis outplayed him.

And there’s zero chance he’s even considered as the number one overall pick. You might not care about his age but NFL teams do… if Hooker is taken in the first round, he’d be the third oldest QB selected in the first round since 1956… that’s first round… not number one overall… just first round.

    • It's not only about the draft spots, the scheduling is a huge factor. We already have a tough 2026 schedule by playing the North divisions, that's possibly 7 playoff contenders there and a few true SB contenders between the Lions, Packers, Vikings, Bears, Ravens, Bengals, and Steelers (Browns will still suck lol), while also pulling the AFC West for the 17th game. Let's just say for the sake of argument we are going to be true contenders in 2026 in both scenarios Would you rather go 9-8 and to make the playoffs as the last WC or worst division winner, lose in the first round and then have to add likely the Eagles/Commanders, 49ers/Rams, and Chiefs/Chargers to an already tough schedule because we have a 1st/2nd round finish this year, while picking 19th in the draft (where the worst playoff team picks) or Or lose an extra game to finish 8-9, while ending up in 3rd (obviously need Falcons/Bucs to get a WC spot) and miss the playoffs, but then get to add likely the Cowboys/Giants, Seahawks/Cardinals, Broncos/Raiders to the schedule while picking 13th in the draft (the highest an 8-9 team picked this year). I can understand why some people would just want to go to the playoffs again, and I can't fault that thinking.  But I'm always a bigger picture person and looking at what is best for the future of the franchise and winning a SB, not my immediate feelings that game/season.   So I'm taking those 3 SIGNIFICANTLY easier games and the 6 better draft spots. If we're a true contender in 2026, those 3 games based on divisional finish could very well be the difference of a 1 vs whatever seed.  Right now the top teams in the NFC are the teams who play in places you don't want to have road playoff games at... GB, Detroit, Philly are some of the toughest stadiums to play in, especially if cold weather games for the outdoors ones.  Give me the few extra easier games to hopefully make the difference in getting home field advantage. Making the playoffs to just lose in the first round isn't worth the first scenario to me when the alternative is losing maybe one or two more games while looking better while doing so.  I can stomach those extra losses in a much improved season when it's for the betterment of our future.  
    • We also watched Cam take Carolina to the SB but how much did his career change when he went to the Pats? See how that works? You create a post just to rag on player on another team just because you hate. You love to do this stuff. I've seen it for a few years. You are one of the main problems on this site. Not just y0u but you're definitely one of them. This topic should be in the nfl general chat. As a mod I would think you would understand that but no. The mods need mods around here.  This is for Panther's material. Can a real mod move this thread to it's proper place please?
