James Graham??

[Techster]

If Tucker really is all that and a plate of wings from Magic City, then all the better for the team. Iron sharpens iron, fellas (and ladies). QB room getting stacked with talent only means good things for GT football.

My money is on tucker or Jeff sims. Feel like tucker has a better arm then Jeff but Jeff can run better then tucker so it’s just a toss up for who wins the job.

better arm meaning?
Sims arm is significantly stronger than Gleasons.

Probably means accuracy. For me, all of this stuff is up for debate until we see what they can do in college.

For me it is debatable until I see what they can do on the field under pressure....(is that what you meant?)

more or less, yeah.

Fall practice hasn’t started so all this is based off a reporters speculation.
Tucker has reportedly studied the offense greatly during the break.

And that same reporter made some specific statements about who the best QB in actual practice was last year. That didn't pan out on the field in games.

That same reporter made remarks about the backup under JT5 was going to be the starter in 2017, it was his job to lose.

I think that reporter says a lot of things on his pay site that are opinion. On that pay site, he will tell you when he is stating fact that he got from a source. I think many people just mistake his opinions and observations as factual reporting about what the team is going to do.

Don't know why but I feel like we are talking a lot about the freshmen when Yates is who we need to be talking about??? Maybe, god please let there be football this year!

Yup, this looks like another case of people buying into his opinion.

Yates is a freshman too.

 

[TruckStick]

This is the same place that crowned Yates the starter last year as a freshman and Vad Lee as a heisman candidate so yeah...

as for my prediction.

1. Graham / Yates
2. Sims / Tucker

True Freshman QB’s that rise to the top are rare.

 

[Techster]

Yates is a freshman too.

Redshirt freshmen...but technically you're correct.

Yates had a full year in our system plus saw game time. Thats FAR more than the true freshmen who didn't even get a full spring practice after enrolling early.

 

[Gold1]

I still really want Yates as the QB. I think he’s the guy

Agreed.

agreed. Just being difficult.

 

[mtodd30]

Graham is back on campus BTW, he posted his negative Covid result on Instagram and posted himself in the team room

the man’s an open book on social media!

 

[Jacketman99]

I doubt anything has been settled since we have only had a few practices. I highly doubt in that time a true freshman has had time to separate himself. With the loss of spring and summer it is unlikely you will see a true freshman starting game 1 in my opinion. However that could change during the course of the season. I honestly think they both will play some but redshirt.

Has full contact begin yet? Hard to see any position being settled without full contact, live action practices. EVERYONE looks good in shorts...the real players come out when you starting knocking helmets.

It just seems like he has the clutch and leadership gene to me. He pretty much willed Milton to the state championship.

 

[deeznats]

It'd be a mistake for the coaching staff to tell anyone (at this point) that they have been beaten out for a position. If they have never, or will never, see the field it is one thing to set expectations that it might not happen, but Graham should be considered the starter until someone beats him out. I'm very high on the new guys coming in but they haven't shown anything at the college level yet.
