NWALA Tiger 3,535 Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Just now, ellitor said: No it can't be all the WRs fault but if they had caught their passes he would have had a couple games over 80% completions and a few others that would have been better than 70%. Pretty sure Hugh feels he can work with that if he had competent WR play. Your better than this .. U can't look at the games against good competition and honestly believe that there aren't better options in the portal. Did he even throw for 150 yds against any SEC team not named Vandy? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We gotta be able to have a functioning pass game to beat Bama, Ole Miss, GA etc. I saw no signs of that this yr. It can't be all the WR fault. What do you think led to PT’s decline as a passer at AU relative to his success at MSU? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say there wasn't. But I think you are underestimating the advantage he will have over most of them already being in our system for a year. Hugh is very confident PT will be markedly better in year 2. As for the 150 yards statement, how many drops were in those games? A bit hyperbole here but too many to count. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better competition . I didn't follow him at Mich St. I'm not saying we had world beaters at WR. But I don't see how anyone thinks PT will lead us to more than 7 wins. What other school in the SEC would PT start at? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a stat during the Vandy game that said game that said something to the effect AU was 4th or 5th best in the country in regards to dropped passes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
