Man, I hate that... But, Good luck to him.

Potentially one of the best Tigers to never play!

Tough times for Tigerville.......

Guess its down to Tevin or Seth.

Teh Decline

How do you know it’s the truth? Maybe he was competing for the starting job and the coaching staff told him he might be better off going elsewhere if he wanted to start? Which I’m pretty sure is what happened.

Then our coaches are idiots. Practice the players that are gonna play.

Tommy West can tell you that you really dunno.
Racecarguy was right...we had 3 QBs go down 1 year...no one knew we were gonna have to re-convert converted QB to WR Mo Avery from WR back to a QB.
Injuries can happen in an instant.

Who is surprised? That’s college football these days. If you are not going to start, then enter the portal (become a free agent) and look for another school. It happens everywhere, every year.

I can see that if Seth Henigan and Grant Gunnel looked equal during spring practice, the coaching staff is gonna “dance with who brung ya” as Bear Bryant used to say. With Seth having a year under his belt at QB and having earned Freshman All-American honors, no coach is gonna bench him unless the competition is head and shoulders above him.

I’m very comfortable with this move. There was a definite logjam at QB, especially considering Tevin Carter’s qualifications and the performance he put on in the Spring Game. I hope that moving up to the apparent #2 QB spot will keep Tevin happy. After all, Seth did have some injury issues last year, so Carter may get minutes sooner than he thinks.

But they were going to play. In fact, they did play. It’s not a big secret but that is kinda’ how spring work goes.

Your philosophy is better in the fall, when developing team cohesiveness is important. But surely you knew that already, right?

Thats a fair point but i still think he stole snaps from the eventual backup.

Always figured it was for the best if Seth won out. Good luck to GG.

And that alone makes me nervous about what kind of Offensive Line we can put together this year.
Last year on paper, Memphis should have had one of the best OLs in the AAC. Due to injuries, that just did not happen, as there were so many guys playing at different times, that one group of guys never got to develop any kind of chemistry playing together.

You'd think with a former OL Coach running the show that the OL would be the most focused-on part of our team.

Unfortunately, the offensive line coach has no control over injuries.
