No one knew what to expect from Tennessee Vols quarterback Joey Aguilar this season after he transferred from UCLA to UT in May.
Aguilar had learn the Vols’ offense in just a couple of months before winning the starting quarterback job during fall camp.

Aguilar is second in the SEC in passing yards (behind Alabama’s Ty Simpson), and he’s tied for second in passing touchdowns.
But I guess he still has more work to do to impress the national media. Aguilar will get a chance to boost his stock this weekend in a home matchup against the Arkansas Razorbacks.
