Except for Austin Price. He showed today that he has gonads of steel.

How is that?

I like price but I'm not sure what you're getting at. I think the media here is always looking for click bait and to stir things up regarding our sports programs.

That really doesn't include VQ which I think does a fair job of covering the program. I think Hyams is fair as well.

If he can keep this class together, he will have talent to win for a year or two. If he can't win during that time, then he probably isn't the answer anyway. Success this year could have snowballed into more elite talent, but he still has a window to win some important games in the next two years.

We will only lose Dobbs on offense and have gained valuable experience playing without AK. If we hire a great oc/qb coach and good ol coach they will have a great core to work with to possibly win the east. But butch has to let go the reins.

If tabor doesn't slip on a double move they're probably ranked #4 right now... They will handle ARKY this weekend

I think they lose to arky LSU and fsu. They're just not a good team. They're right on par with us and could easily drop the arky game. Bielema is 8-0 coming off an SEC loss, his team will be ready.

if Hurd truly was a cancer then I am glad he is gone. It sounded like p Willy was a cancer and he is gone now too.

My thought is what about dormady it always seemed like he and Preston were close so does anybody besides me think that he could be part of the problem as well

I think he's referring to Price asking Butch multiple Hurd questions after Jones had said no more Hurd questions.

I'm referencing to one of his questions during the presser. After CBJ said no more questions about Hurd he waited a few and then asked a question on Hurd. Butch Jones said, "Did I not say no more questions about Hurd?" and told the media again to stop asking questions about Hurd and Price responds with, "Well I'm going to ask anyway." Loved hearing that.

Hopefully Dormady gets some extensive PT this weekend and we can all see how he plays. He is only one play away from taking over.

Just curious. IMO, it is pretty difficult to fire him if he ends up with 9 wins this year. He inherited a mess, and I am still not sure future coaches would want to take a job where his predecessor clearly improves and gets fired.

I had thought about this scenario before the season. I said that I would be disappointed if we didn't get to Atlanta, but barring a collapse, it doesn't mean he should be fired. I have no issue with him being on the proverbial hot seat.

It becomes a business decision, and a 10 million buyout is bad business.

The more relevant question is, if we go 10-3, do you give him an extension? I'm sure his camp would be angling for one.

They lose by 3 without him getting shook down. That's like saying Martin slipped when Calloway was stutter stepping him in the first half. Nope Tabor didn't slip on his own he got beat straight up. Then they gave up another TD. They were down 17 before we backed off the gas on the drive they scored on.

Still waiting to hear who is better in the East.

Better than the Swamp Donkey? Based upon what?

If it is based on accomplishments, then Butch is the most accomplished coach in the East with 4 Conference titles. But he also has considerably more experience than anyone else in the league as a HC.

Odom and Smart are brand new. Derek Mason has done nothing. Stoops hasn't done anything yet but is putting together a solid season this year. Muschamp had one good season, and some average/bad ones. Swamp Donkey improved CSU to respectability, then had success in his first year at UF. Butch also beat the brakes off him a month ago.

I can't see putting any of them ahead of Butch at this point.

Who's gonna fire Butch this year? UT has no Chancellor, no AD, a lame duck Hart with no authority and a President who's taking a hands-off approach. With no leadership, CBJ has himself a nice little fiefdom. Look how that's turned out.

Why? It does no good for our program.

Butch is likely saying what he believes is best for our program.

People expecting him to get up there and rip the kid and talk about what a diva he is are crazy.

What do people want him to say about Hurd?

FTR, I think they should have banned that clown Seth Stokes for that nonsense he asked last year.
