Great sentiment

Jay Crook @crookedheartdoc I want to win, but I want to do it with the right people. Give me Joshua Dobbs over Jameis Winston. Every single time pic.twitter.com/j5ODAtgZTD

During Gameday, they showed the story about UAB. My heart breaks for those players, coaches, and fans. That is beyond unfair.

It's funny, do yall ever see the horse **** people say to Wes Rucker?

I would have went off on people way more than he has.

Especially when folks claim to not like him yet they still follow him. Doesn't that make those folks the bigger DBags?
Btw,

I agree he was right on the Barnett Tunsil matchup. But he still is a grade A Dbag. I concede it can be tough as a journalist. You get more success being controversial than being a good writer.

Rucker can be annoying but doesn't bother me. He will report some good stuff. Like I said, Adams is the one I can't tolerate. I don't know why he continues to be employed by the Sentinel when he doesn't contribute anything that I can find.

I don't really care if a kid SHOULD be playing OG, but is playing OT out of need. After 1000 reps I'd expect the kid to be better at what he is doing. I get it's not ideal, but a lot of times this year just getting in the guys way would have helped. If you are 6'4 and 305 instead of 6'6 and 315, I still feel it's reasonable to see improvement. At least don't whiff on block after block. Get some kind of push in the run game. SOMETHING!

This. Even a guard playing tackle should do well enough to get by.

And the "threat" wasn't much of a threat at all... "...I don't forget." isn't very menacing in my opinion.

Also, it was pretty low of someone to retweet a direct message and THAT dude should get blasted.

My only real issue with Rucker is not that he goes off on people in his mentions, I would too from time to time, but in the frequency and manner that he does it. Instead of firing back with statistics and facts, he goes elementary school on them with stuff like "I'm smarter than you" "I have more followers" "even if I'm wrong, I'm right"

Personally, I follow every person that covers the vols because when they all give their opinions on situations generally the truth is somewhere in between all of their opinions, and I enjoy seeing different perspectives.

Cool. I hope you are right. A solid bowl game win would get me more optimistic. That skid we went on at the end even though Vandy was a win eroded that optimism for me. We were injured though so I am curious to see how we play with lots of practice.

You guys think we can make a run at the east next year? I say nyet, not nyet.

I expect us to have a chance. I don't think we will control our own destiny late in the year, but I think this time next year we will be saying stuff like "if we win out and Uga or Mizzou loses to "x" team then we are in"

If we don't beat UF next year look for whatever position coach looked the worst to lose their job. I think a line in the sand gets drawn with another UF loss.

I think we can. That's not my baseline expectation though. Meaning, I won't be calling for CBJ's head if we don't either win or finish a close second. Team is still young. But I expect us to be extremely competitive. Definitely a dark horse team that could surprise on the upside.

That is reasonable in my opinion. And we could. Just too many questions at QB and for the line.

I think 2016 when we have them at home again is when I will expect to win.

Next year's game seems winnable though.

We've finally closed the talent gap with them and my expectation is that that series will be close and competitive year in and year out like it should be.

What questions at QB are you seeing? Honest question.

My thinking is the QB play will be much better with better OL play. And with better play calling. But, that's jmo

Or he could be an adult and ignore the idiots.

And again, no one here is arguing his point about Barnett.
