[QUOTE="Jacket4Life9, post: 302296, member: 2264"] Don't agree with your last statement. JT was a leader by example and always appeared to be tough as nails. He was a large part of the mindset of our 2014 team, IMO, as Laskey/Days didn't become the two-headed monster we all remember until toward the end of the season. Many plays made by JT earlier in '14 allowed the season to end the way it did. His ultra-clutch escape and TD pass to win the GA Southern game was HUGE. I would still have nightmares if we had lost that game. Also, 4th & 19 at Virginia Tech should not be forgotten. I don't care if JT made 100% correct reads on option plays, if you take away his ability to throw the beautiful deep comebacks and back-shoulders that he often hit, we would not have enjoyed the success we saw in '14 or '16. We have to keep the defense honest and JT threw the ball well enough/escaped defenders well enough to do so. A little JT biased, but here is my analysis: Athleticism: JT by a long shot Speed: JT by a long shot Quickness: JT by a long shot Elusiveness/Escapability: JT by a long shot Extend Play Ability: JT by a long shot Pass Accuracy: JT marginally better Arm Strength: JT by a long shot Clutch Factor: JT Option Reads: Tevin marginally better Size: Tevin marginally - not physical imposing in the least bit, but bigger than JT. Toughness: Both of these guys were reliable in this department from what I remember. Key attribute. Having big muscles does not equate to toughness. Neither of these guys look like greek gods, but they were tough. [/QUOTE]
