The one positive change with Jones is the players seem to have a better attitude and team spirit..Dooleys former players at La Tech made the same change and were not shy in saying they were happy when Dooley left.A 6-6 season next year would say we are on the right track but will not happen if Worley can't lead this team. Unfortunate that QB Ferguson isn't an early enrollee. Ferguson isn't a long ball QB but is deadly rolling out, he can run,and is a win at all cost kind of guy.

Actually it takes about 4 starts (against quality competition) for a competent QB to really grasp a system. Worley has been thrown in several games against top ten type defenses. If he can weather the storm early against UO & FU, he may adjust faster than anticipated. Don't forget Tony Pike that played QB at Cincy, they geared the offense around his strength (throwing the fb). Peterman is a dark horse QB in this equation, he's more mobile than Worley and if he has a good Spring could emerge as the starting QB game one. The cupboard is not bare at QB, but UT's young WR's (like Bowles&Croom) need to step up and make a difference this year.
