Everyone knew it was coming..
Wish him the best, he was passed over by two coaching staffs at tennessee. The current coaching staff felt it was important to get two transfers in at QB Both of which passed Bailey on the depth chart.
He still remains the most popular 3ed string QB in college football. It wouldn't surprise me if I never hear his name again, wouldn't surprise me if his leading a good team next year.

"We didn't want him anyway" Right?
Hope this this doesn't bit us in the bottom. There's a reason just not sure what it is.
All Vol fans wanted him. Along with 10 other SEC schools. He just didn't pan out.
We are a couple injuries away from being in bad shape. Hope Hooker continues to thrive and stay healthy. He has my respect
Seems like a good kid and may do great at another school that fits his skill set. Probably just not mobile enough for this offense.
I think you hit the nail squarely on the head. He will probably ball out in the right system.
Heupel can adjust his system to fit a pocket passer. He did it successfully with Drew Lock.
Figured it was coming and don't blame him. Best of luck to the young man.
Like I've said previously, when he was getting all of the hype in high school, I was able to watch a little of his games online.
A LOT of his yards were after-the-catch from some great receivers he had on the team.
Not saying he wasn't good, because everybody wanted him, but just maybe he isn't the caliber everybody predicted that he would be. Wouldn't be the first time.

I think Lock and Bailey are a little different and heupel was operating as an oc at Missouri and may have been told to make it work verses being a hc that gets to decide how he wants to run his system. Heupel has forgotten more about qbs than I'll ever know so I ll have to trust his call.
Good for him !
Don't blame him one bit.

This..
In 2019 UCF QB had 400 passing attempts for 3600 yards...... less the 80! Rush yards on the season.... he had less then 170 rush yards in 2020 on a AVG of 2 yards a carry. .....so I call Bologna
If Heupel thought this kid was special he would have given him a shot or told him his shot was coming. Not push him down the depth chart. I think Bailey can run a little also maybe not as good as hooker, but he could differently pick up a first down with his legs or 80 yards in 12 games. I think hooker and Milton just flat out looked better then him to heupel this spring.
We all know Pruitt didn't know what he was doing, but maybe he really did have a reason to start JG as long as he did.
I wish him all the luck will be Interesting to see where he goes.

Did I ever say I was? Nope, he is a qb that had high expectations and didn't pan out in our system period

last week against Alabama was the first time I seen Hooker roll out...and to beat all...it was to his left. He has passed in the pocket all year. They need to roll him out...however, I'm not a coach.

You never played did you? Never competed. Never bled. Never cried. Where I'm from, it's once a Buckeye, always a Buckeye. Seems to me, it's the same in this state. Once a Volunteer, always a Volunteer. You are just a bandwagon fan. "We"????? Like you were part of any decision related to any player processed out of Alabama. Give every true fan on this board and shut the $&*> up.
