Former Tennessee basketball player Ron Slay posed quite the question to Tennessee football head coach Josh Heupel at SEC Media Days Thursday.
The question, per 104.5 The Zone: Would you rather take yourself or current starting quarterback Hendon Hooker in a 2-minute drill situation?
Heupel’s answer? Hooker, because he has better coaching.
“You have a two minute drill and you have to win the game. You have young Heupel, national championship Heupel, and Hendon Hooker. Who are you taking?”
“Hendon Hooker. He’s got better coaching.”@coachjoshheupel came prepared for @3HL1045 today 😂👏https://t.co/ddYx86wVBm pic.twitter.com/YqJMxvn5Zg

Heupel was a national Championship winning quarterback at Oklahoma in his playing days, leading the Sooner to the title in 2001. he was also the Heisman Trophy runner-up in 2000 behind Florida State quarterback Chris Weinke.
Hooker is showing up on the radars as a dark horse Heisman candidate himself. He had a star year at Tennessee last season, throwing for 31 touchdowns and only 3 interceptions in an 8-win season for the Volunteers.
