The past two weeks have shown Kentucky fans that we just don't have the tools necessary to compete this year in the always tough SEC. Hartline, while good against weaker opponents, has not shown that he has the ability to perform under pressure. Last Saturday, he made bad decisions while throwing three interceptions and calling audible adjustments that offered less than desirable results. Meanwhile, when he did have an open man to throw to, he often threw it above his head, behind his stride, or at his shoe strings. He really struggled with hitting the receiver in the numbers, which is absolutely necessary when you have a receiver wide open with room to run.
I don't dislike Hartline. I think he has some skill and has shown resolve to be able to rebound from previous setbacks. However, he just isn't a SEC quarterback. He might be more serviceable if our o-line improves, and if he can find a way to be more accurate with the pass; yet, I really wonder if we'll be able to win even one SEC game this year with him under center.
Hey, I hope I'm wrong, and will be the first to admit it if proven so. Yet, I want to be realistic about this football team, and a 4-8/0-8 finish might be the safest bet on the men in blue.
Prove me wrong, Cats. I want you too.
it took me a while to read this post because i had to pause every ten seconds to laugh because i read "the cocks" every other line hahahaa
