# | Freshman Josh Jackson "not really surprised" to be in the hunt for quarterback So Tyson Gay may be the fastest man ever to not get an Olympic medal now:
Thanks for understanding my concern, and thanks for clarifying!
If true, things could get interesting and exciting.
nah this sauce the sauce. you can coach speak all day to the media but when talking to your friends about camp I wouldn't really call it loose lips or trying to stir the pot or anything like that. I was honestly hesitant to say anything on here at all. but I always get such good info from here I thought it wouldn't be right to hold onto what i was told. def not snapchat or any kind of speculating. im not saying JJ will be the starter. just don't be surprised if he is. it is a fact that JJ got the majority of the QB1 reps in a closed practice that snapchat was not at lol.
After how many times we as a fan base have campaigned for true freshman to start over the last 20 or so years, I think Jackson starting would be exactly what many of us want to see work.
Thanks for the informative post. He does seem to be a smart guy that can run the
offense well, which would obviously be important under Fuente.
In a way it would be exciting to have a true freshman as the starter. Like you,
I'm a little uneasy about it but hopefully he'll do well.

So much this. Nothing has maddened me more in the past seasons than losing to teams we shouldn't have.
The hype train has gone a half mile, Bucky hasn't moved, and Sam started at the same time but had to slow his pace down to the train.
I felt some type of way
Don't worry, 904, we've all felt some type of way at one point or another. Nothing to be ashamed about.
But seriously, I'm less concerned about who is leading the QB battle than I am about this "sauce" that continues to ooze out of the jar. Hopefully it's someone with good (although unwise) intentions and not trying to stir the pot with misinformation. I'd prefer these developments to come from the coaches (officially).
It seems CJF and the staff (as well as team spokesmen) have choreographed their coach speak so far, and I'd rather see that play out than risk upsetting the flow of propaganda. Loose lips sink ships, as they say.
But speculating based on snap chat footage? Go for it!
Thing is, Bucky's standing a good half mile behind the hype train.
As long as they aren't UVA fans... Joking aside, the OSU fans the last 2 years have been great to interact with. Welcome aboard!

Well I don't approve of you at all, [opposing team] fan.
.... did I do it right?
do not be surprised if JJ is the starter this year. #sauces say he is not just in the hunt but leading it right now. per sauce there was a closed practice and JJ was getting the majority of the first team reps. his understand of coaches Offense and where he wants to go with the ball and getting it there is really shinning above all else.
when I first heard the news I felt some type of way about a freshman starting and I still feel a little uneasy about it but honestly if his maturity level is what im hearing then I couldn't be more excited. there were going to be bumps and bruises with any QB coming in and I would rather take them with someone who requires the D to make plays to cause those mistakes than someone who is gifting the ball away and you add on that he could be doing it for the next 3 or 4 years to the mix and that cant help but get you more excited that we have a kid that Is killing it right now no matter what year he is.

Honestly they both work as Bama shirts, as far as the slogans.
Wouldn't that be kind of like a Sith Lord killing his teacher?
I was listening to ESPN radio up here on the way home yesterday and they hit on a point that I think is the most important for me this season:
I want to see us win the games we should win.
By that I mean that I want to see us progress and beat the teams that we should beat given our talent, experience, and expectation that both the offense and the defense will be better this year than in years past. This means that we could conceivably lose a few games - ND, perhaps Tenn, perhaps Pitt, perhaps UNC, perhaps Miami. I would expect us to win at least one of those but if all of those teams live up to their billings this year, then they should all be pretty good.
However, if we lose to ECU, Liberty, LOLUVA, Duke, GT, Boston College, or Syracuse, I'll be really disappointed. As far as I can tell right now, we should be 7-5 this year without breaking too much of a sweat. If we progress a little better than I'm projecting and one or more of the teams that I think should beat us either regress, implode, or suffer massive injuries, then I think our ceiling is 10-2.
I just don't want to lose to a team that we should beat. I'd be content with that.
We are staying in the pole position campground. Half a mile away from the track. Don't touch the smoker it will be hot from thursday when I get there until after the game saturday,
1- A swarming defense.
2- More sacks. Last year was embarrassing.
3- An offense that doesn't take its foot off the gas when only up by 10pts.
I hope Fuente does a better job keeping TN out.
Not to mention Maryland. :\
I believe the normal standard here is "innocent until trolling happens". I like when fans of other programs contribute here.
I thought you tried to sneak a cake in there. Then I realized what Wyatt had in his hand.
Now I'm hungry.
Checking to see his response....naturally curious when someone says I'm here to comment but I'm not a troll. Then commences to troll. It's only natural to wonder when you go to opposition boards set up an account then start commenting....

Really, a lot of the benefits to having upperclassmen don't apply to Evans and Motley, and some of the struggles of a true Freshman don't apply to Jackson. JJ has the same time and experience in Coach Fuente's system as the other guys (and wasn't corrupted/confused by terrible Scot Loeffler). He's also spent his entire life around a major FBS program at Michigan with his dad, so adjusting should come easier. He seems to be by far the most poised in interviews. If it's true that he's also the least mistake-prone, then the only disadvantage to him starting is that we won't have him at Michigan in 2020.
