Also KT didn't return to the team to play. He came back to finish this semester since the transfer wasn't at the best time for him. He was only going to play if nobody else was available. Joe isn't overlooking KT they both agreed to this. KT was beaten out by Tommy. Tommy was the better QB but he's proven he can't stay healthy. Mayden is suspended 2/3 of the year so the job went to Shrader. Shrader has shown he's ready for SEC play & has taken the job & ran with it.
I'm not saying Shrader won't be good - I think he can be good. I'm just saying the decision to go with Joe's offense this year was a mistake. I think putting your eggs in the Tommy basket because he can run your offense better was a mistake. I think losing a guy like KT who was well liked and fit the offense he was recruited to - and specifically the offense that would be on the field this year was a mistake.

If the agreement was that KT would be allowed back on the team - but wouldn't play unless there was an emergency - then I guess it is what it is, but I just hate that it came to that point.
