Yep but he is one of the few that got there by hate. He parlayed making people mad into a career. I am surprised fox has hired him and his and his antics and vulgarity. Follow him on twitter and you will see how vulgar he is

Agree totally. I actually block him on Twitter so that I don't see his tweets when others retweet his nonsense. Vulgar shock jock troll who thinks he's smarter than he is.

Meh.

Teams record Vs Kentucky is more relevant

Record is great but winning easily in the series isn't.


Many many many scared to death 4qts that we pull off a victory in. That's what I see today. Many of those scares were with much better tenn teams and much much worse kentucky teams

Wow that's crazy. He is the brother-in-law of one of my groomsman. Should have never went there originally. Don't know if this will change things but was thinking heavily about leaving after this year, broken promises by Schottenhimer (sp?). Maybe he steps up and takes advantage of the opportunity and helps us out in the process. I'll be rooting for him anyway.

He's listed as a junior. Wonder if he has a redshirt year? Transfer might not be possible unless he transferred down.

Corso said that Alabama not beating us by much is a reason for them to not be in the top 4.

Hope somebody reminds him of that if Florida or Oklahoma move back up.

I did that in college in the 90's. Greatest job. So easy to pick up women. Explaining varieties of wine or liquor to women was so much fun. They loved it and ate up whatever I was spewing out about chard's, cab's, zin's, tequilas, scotch, etc.. It was a blast. And giving out wines or liquors to friends and families for birthdays or Xmas is always a good gift. Enjoy it! And shoot a lot of mini's...

That's exactly the dream. Plus, who doesn't enjoy being surrounded by whiskey, bourbon, scotch, and craft beer? I'm going to be like a kid in a candy store.

McScrooge's is great! I imagine that would be a fun place to work. Next time I go there should I just ask for Mock?

Well I just got the job yesterday, so I think only like 3 of them know my name or that I've even been hired. Starting out I'll probably be doing more stock and helping customers than anything else.

No. Ask for Jack

I'll allow you to ask for better :)

Mcscrooges was my favorite liquor store when I lived in Knoxville. Would be a great place to work.

Yeah, I'm really excited about it. The only college job that I could imagine to be better would be working as a bartender. They have one of the largest selections in the entire US.

Dobbs is 10th in the conference in rushing. On pace to easily become UTs all time leading rusher for a QB. 89 carries, 17 more than Dak. Plus 15 sacks and countless hits. I bet it's hard to get in a rythm passing when you are in the top ten rushing in the SEC. And he's got a couple of 300 yd games passing. One vs Georgia. His skill set is quite unique, he's good.

Dobbs 4 Heisman said:
The first potential INT was a d-lineman hitting his hand and the ball floating on him. Are you really gonna hold that against him? The last one was on our final drive and he was forcing a ball to make a play. Not great but I forgive those cause it's more about poor decision making than inaccuracy. I will concede the potential INT that was dropped by Minkah Fitzpatrick was a poor decision. Dobbs shouldn't have forced that ball on a roll out. Same with the potential pick broken up by Jauan.

I guess this shows the difference between your criticism of Josh and my views. I will agree with you if you're arguing Josh makes poor decisions with the ball sometimes. Thats typical of many QBs. Hell some of the best ever were gunslingers that forced the ball into bad situations. However, I don't hear QBs like Brett Favre or Eli Manning get pegged as inaccurate for throwing tons of interceptions. I don't hear calls for them to change positions. When they throw picks or poor passes it's labeled poor decision making. However when other QBs make the same mistakes, it's because they're athletes playing QB that can't throw.

Let me ask you this. Do you label every QB that throws near picks inaccuate?

You should re read my post. I don't think you comprehended what I was saying. Nowhere did I say or imply that Dobbs is inaccurate because he made some poor decisions against Bama. As for the interceptions, I was just saying that it's disingenuous to say he had a "really good game." My comment about his accuracy was separate from that. I'm not sure why you would infer I was saying his poor decisions in the Bama game mean he's inaccurate. Dobbs' decision making is probably the area he's made the most progress thus far this season. His cutting down on turnovers has been huge for this team.

As for your question about Favre and Eli? No, I don't think bad decisions mean they're inaccurate. But if you're comparing Dobbs's arm to them, then I'll have some of what you're smoking. Dobbs's arm isn't nearly on their level. Very few QBs are. If Dobbs had an arm like Eli or Favre, then he'd be a shoe in for the first round in the 2016 draft.

The picks aren't what would make me question Dobbs' accuracy. It's the simple passes that he still often misses. He still fails to deliver many of his short or quick passes accurately in the right spot for a receiver to make a play with it. He's still inconsistent when it comes to putting the ball in the right spot. The best QBs put the ball in the same spot week in week out on those simple passes. Sometimes Dobbs has stretches of games or weeks where he can't hit his guys in the numbers.

We are better than KY in every facet other than Medley. More talented and more tested. The offense has gutted below average defenses since Dobbs took over and I expect no different today.
