What would JT have done in this offense?

[Sean311]

What say you?

 

[GoGATech]

Been a slot back.

 

[stech81]

stayed at Alabama

Well, he was going to be a DB at Bama, right? But it seems Collins prefers those to be over 6ft. I suspect slot receiver like Ahmarean Brown

Who knows how things were actually going to shake out, but he was recruited for QB at Bama and FSU. Now, I'm sure he knew he'd have to find another position if he wasn't going to be close to the top of the depth chart. I'm sure CPJ was clear that he was never going to be anything other than QB.

JT5 was just a good QB. He could really sling it. Would have had a solid C% in a more conventional offense.

 

[Sean311]

Wrong section my bad

 

[Jacketman1]

Would have been a QB, come on y'all. Tobias is still at QB, and JT was a WAY better passer.

He woulda slung that thang and then ran a QB draw for 65 yards.

I think he would have done great and really shine in this kind of offense. He was Kyler Murray before Kyler Murray.

No way. Average at best .

Given the opportunity, I think JT could've been a fine QB in a spread/pro system.

He wasn't Kyler Murray, but he was more of a QB than a lot of people gave him credit. We sorely missed his arm after his departure.

I'll always cherish my memories of JT's time on the flats and between the hedges. 2 out of 3 against the Dwags (despite his 2 COSTLY fumbles in '14) puts him in a place not many Tech QBs enjoy

With the 2014 team he probably would’ve been just as good if not better because he would’ve been able to sling it to Smelter and Waller more while still being able to work RPO with Days and Laskey. Also the 2014 OLine would’ve held up well.

No. Kyler Murray was absolutely ridiculous in HS. He was absolutely ridiculous in college.

JeT would have been a good QB in Patenaude's offense, and Patenuade would have made hay with JeT. JeT was just a damn good football player. Jet was accurate when he had time, and on the move. Very underrated passer.

Rude..

JT woulda been JT in any offense. Dude was meant to be a college qb. He, and we, got lucky that Bama didn't see that.

 

[RickStromFan]

better passing stats, just due to getting more attempts. Probably same amount of wins. Guy was a baller and an on-field leader, something we've lacked the past 2 years IMO. That's the kind of thing that's hard to coach. A kid's either got it or not. JT5 had it.

 

[Bogey]

CGC was very complimentary about Tobias's ability to read coverages and ability to hit his target on the money in practise. With the gun and adequate pass blocking, I think it is way to early to draw this conclusion.

JT was a playmaker. Period. He would succeed in our new offense, 'cause playmakers transcend offensive systems through sheer ability. Some playmakers are even their own system (see Marino, Dan; pre-Achilles injury).
