Listening to what certain commentators are saying leads me to believe that the torch will be passed

I would be nice to let Milton play a series or a quarter, or even a play, and then hand it over to Nico.

that was my expected scenario, and may happen, but IMO it will be Nico?s game

That is a helluva defense to go against in your first start.

I bet the line blocks extra well for him though.

other than Spraggs, we should have our starting OL available
Also, Spags is the only one not announced to return next year, yet

What Bandit said. Please do not get my hopes up Pirate.

As an aside, UT is smart not to publicize anything. It would be ideal if Iowa spent their time planning for Milton.

Aight, in an effort to preserve my sanity I have avoided all news for days.

If this is legit I'm running around like George at the end of It's A Wonderful Life.

AP does not play. There's strong information to read betwixt those lines.

I am a tad surprised it's leaking this early through an official-ish channel.

While I?m happy to see Nico starting, I do hope that Joe is truly opting out on his own accord, rather than being pushed. He?s been loyal to UT for a long time, he doesn?t deserve to go out like that.

All reports I have heard is that he opted out, after the Senior Bowl invite
