FOOTBALL Freshman QB

[MTLynn]

I may have missed it on here but the freshman QB John Turner is no longer on the roster

Well, that was quick.

Wonder if this has been coming for a while, hence the 2 QB commits in the next class.

Huh what happened

From Smyrna?

I watched the video from photo day this past weekend and he was in one part of the video.

18 and 19 second mark #18

That's unfortunate. Was really, really high on him. He certainly looked the part.

A legit problem to have. I would about say it's a good problem to have, but it's hard to say good when it involves losing quality young players. The legit or good side of the problem is MT having a stable full of QBs with an all conf possibly all American QB with 2 years left.

Why?

Bump... the kid is still constantly retweeting stuff from all of the MT athletic accounts and still has MT in his bio - maybe just a mistake on the roster or website?

Maybe a blueshirt/greyshirt candidate?

This is something that the Tennessee's and Bama's do to get around the 25 limit - they convince a kid to essentially delay joining the team and going on 'ship for 1 semester so they can fit him into the next class and count him forward.

It's usually a local/in-state kid who can get assistance or lower tuition rates for that one semester.

Yep, Brent did this and it is working out well.
