The CheckerBoard

Jake Plummer?

I wish Bray the best yet this was the decision most expected. I hope Big Dan and Sentimore return. It never hurts to have some size and experience in the trenches. I believe in college games are often won in the trenches.
UT will have a new QB and receivers but it never hurts to have an experienced O-line and running backs to offset that. UT should have one of the best O-lines in college football next season.

If he turns out to be good, he'll be remembered the same way we remember Arian Foster.

I think if we were staying in the Pro offense that he would have stayed, but with the spread (term used lightly) I think he saw somebody elses light shining brighter than his. Good luck to him, he has brought me a lot of joy and a lot of anguish.

That's it! Thanks. What do you think about the comparison?

I agree he had great talent, but it seemed that everytime we asked him to come through he let us down. Casey clausen was just the opposite. A real gamer.

I think it's gonna be a good battle at QB, RB, and WR this coming off season. Defense should have some good battles too with the new system. It's gonna be an exciting 9 months.

Agree. Let's sew up at least a top 25 recruiting class and start ballin. Can't wait!

Wes any chance Patterson stays to play with his high school QB Worley?

That's my assumption too!

I know i wish him nothing but the best. I wish he would have stuck around for his Sr. year becuase I think he's by far the best QB on our roster, but I also understand that this year's NFL QB class is somewhat weak and he's got a good chance to be drafted fairly high. I also don't think the loss of Patterson and Hunter coupled with the schedule next year would have helped his draft stock out all that much.

Not surprised by the decision. I think it would have really helped if he came back but it also might be for the better for both sides if he declares. Time for Justin Worley and Nate Peterman to go to work. Really excited to see who takes the reign. I feel good knowing we will have a great leader taking the reigns this time. Also hope that big Dan and Sentimore come back. We will really benefit from having a good line on both sides of the ball and those 2 will play a big part in that.

Bray should take a lesson from Scottie Hopson! He thinks he's better than what he is! Bray had awesome numbers against no Tallent low tiered teams and that made him look awesome but the NFL isn't a bunch of dummy's they will review the Florida - Alabama - Vanderbuilt Etc games to see a kid with great Tallent but a horrible attitude and lots of potential to go south in big games! He is throwing away millions of dollars as did Scottie by leaving on a better than thou attitude!
