The staff is looking at yesterday as a one off and not something they believe to be an every week occurrence with the offensive line. The Vols are 2-1 and not 1-2 or 0-3. They aren’t happy but the sky isn’t falling. Georgia is just that good up front. If Tennessee eventually made a QB change, it would be Shrout as Bailey is no where close to being ready and Maurer can’t keep himself ahead of the chains in practice or in the meeting room. The ability to move and be elusive and yet still throw it well is something the staff is looking forward to with Salter and potentially Simpson if they can land him.
Tonight is a big night with several offensive playmakers expected to be showcased to see where they are. Calloway and Holiday missed due to Covid situations in fall camp. Wideman missed basically a month with two bouts of contact tracing. The staff wants more speed on the field but they didn’t want to throw them out until they know they can handle it and they hadn’t been able to see enough to this point due to all that.
Dee Beckwith is gonna get some run tonight as Tennessee looks for added playmakers at running back.
Shamburger and Emerson played poorly yesterday. Alontae struggled with simple concept things that shouldn’t still be effecting him.
