Former Alabama QB says there were things that 'irritated' him about Vols QB Nico Iamaleava's performance in Citrus Bowl

This week, former Alabama quarterback Greg McElroy, now an ESPN analyst, took an assertive stance when discussing Tennessee Volunteers quarterback Nico Iamaleava. McElroy expressed confidence in Iamaleava, stating that he seems to be “the answer” for Tennessee. On Always College Football, McElroy emphasized that Iamaleava could be a breakout star in the upcoming college football season.

According to McElroy, Tennessee’s success is closely tied to the performance of their quarterback. If the quarterback excels, the team becomes formidable, but if they struggle, the team’s potential diminishes significantly. Reflecting on Iamaleava’s sole college start in the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl against Iowa, McElroy acknowledged the relatively modest passing yards (151) but highlighted the quarterback’s athleticism, decisiveness, and ability to throw on the move.

McElroy suggested that Iamaleava’s potential will become more apparent in the 2024 season, marking the first time Tennessee fans will witness Josh Heupel’s offense with a quarterback recruited by Heupel from high school. Heupel, entering his fourth year, aims to bring his long-term vision for the program to fruition after the team’s near miss at the College Football Playoff in his second season. This prospect is particularly exciting for Tennessee fans, signaling the beginning of a promising era under Heupel’s leadership after years of uncertainty.
