An SEC West quarterback made a big — and accurate — statement about Tennessee Vols quarterback Joe Milton on Tuesday at SEC Media Days in Nashville.

Mississippi State Bulldogs quarterback Will Rogers was asked by The Daily Beacon's Caleb Jarreau about what he leaned from Milton at the Manning Passing Academy earlier this offseason. 

Rogers and Milton were both counselors at this year's Manning Passing Academy. 

"He’s got like the strongest arm in the world," said Rogers. "I told one of my friends that the other day, I think pro, college it doesn’t matter. He’s got the strongest arm I’ve ever seen."

Rogers certainly isn't alone when it comes to that sentiment. Milton's arm has garnered all kinds of national attention for the way he seems to effortlessly throw the ball 60 plus yards down the field. 

It's been said ad nauseam this offseason, but it's true — if Milton puts it all together this season, he could end up running away with the Heisman Trophy. And that could (and likely would) mean another special season for the Vols.
