The other picture wouldn't post, but this really angered me.. Bad time management and then putting our quarterback in this kind of position.

And they’ll probably bring him back for 2018 because apparently a bowl game is the standard now

It's a difficult situation because at the end of this year he'll only have 3 years left on his contract. How does that impact recruiting? What would be the fallout from giving him a 1 year extension on his contract? At the moment that doesn't seem to be in the realm of possibilities. jmo.

I don't know if this one has been photoshopped, but it has so much going on in it.

The UT guy with his thumb up lol..

Bama fan flicking off Gaulden to the right, wonder who flicked off who first. Maybe Gaulden was just reacting to a punk fan.

NB4 “that doesn’t make it right..”

Are you guys complaining about the players mentioning a bowl really that dumb or just blinded by anger????


You guys do realize those statements weren't made at the start of the season?

Would you guys prefer the players just think because the goal of winning the east is over they should stop playing?

Or would you prefer they change their goals at this point and time and keep playing for something?


Smh at some of the idiotic thinking here

The play calling was horrendous and getting our QB destroyed. Plays that take too long to develop.

Setting aside my halo for a moment, I quite like this.

Slides halo back on...

SMH. Can’t represent the University this way

Which one of you is the Vol giving the thumbs up behind the arrogant Bama fan?

Need to get this off my mind once and for all because it matters for who they choose as the next "legacy" coach at the football program I love.

If they hire a coach that wants to be a coaching conference motivational speaker again, I'm done listening to any interviews or pressers. I cringe every time I hear his words like the "best staff in America" and "the system is infallible" that started it all off to the resiliency, complimentary football, champions of anything but football, etc. We don't need a cliche machine that talks down to the fanbase and feels like he needs to educate the uneducated. I am no fan of the media, but he deserves every flaming he receives with his BS. There are dozens of posters on here and personal coaching friends that know as much or more of what the real world is with this football team than he does. He needs to man up and accept a reasonable buy-out, call Two Men and a Truck, load up the family, and head back to Meeeshegan.

I am appreciative of his real desire to embrace Vol tradition, energy and enthusiasm spent toward building a competitive roster, and APR improvement. However, he missed out on the greatest opportunity he will ever have to be at the top as a coach because he simply cannot get out of his own way and personally grow as a leader and at the game of football. It's just not in his DNA. If he gets back in he needs to drop back a couple of steps.

Anybody that thought Jones was going to actually get it done here wasn’t paying attention to his time as a BearCat. I posted this back in Dec 2012 shortly after he was announced.

“After watching the Jones press conference, my deja vu feeling of nausea at the coach speak sent me out surfing multiple Bearcat boards and I found common themes concerning the new head coach.

Micro manager
Weak x's and o's guy
Paranoid
Bad late game management
No 2nd half adjustment
On field loyalty to less talented players
Big ego
Corny Butchisms
Unwillingness to adjust his way to current roster skill set
Fans more upset over loss of assistant coaches than head coach

The bammer and gator have gifted the Vols with Dooley 2.0 for a long term stretch. The only good things I could find were he works really, really hard and appears to be a recruiting upgrade over Doolz.

I avoided the obviously butthurt fans in reading statements concerning Jones, but most Bearcat fans think he is way out of his league in trying to coach in the SEC.

Ugh!!!!! Do I think Jones can win the SEC and a NC? No, but I hope I'm wrong.”

Hopefully the new AD gets it right this time.....

I did some digging and it would make sense if the Beav was RT. Discovered an old article that mentioned one of Thunder's daughters going to MIT. Beav posted some very specific Honors stuff so would make a lot of sense for Beav to be a scholorship golf guy. Add in Thunder's known out spokenness and it makes a lot of sense. Question is, is it all wishful thinking? One issue is RT went to Vandy. Would wonder if it was to troll us or if he bleeds orange regardless. His oldest sister is the event coordinator in Knoxville. Like planning parties for MNF celebs kind of event planner. Lots of connections in that household.

Wow if it ends up being a Vandy grad trolling all these guys all along. Hahaha. Part of me thinks that Freak needs to vet these guys a little but the other part of me thinks people deserve the hook if they bite every worm somebody dangles.

If your goal during those years was making the PGA tour after college, which program would you go to, Vandy or UT?

Oh drvenner! Do you really think he won’t back off? I can’t believe that we’re posting on a message board when we could be in the middle of the streets NOT supporting this program! Do you think Currie will hire a coach? I don’t believe he will! Why can’t this university hire someone that will hire a coach? Do you think we’ll fire Butch? If we don’t will we hire him so we can fire him? Are you reading this post? Do you get that I’m really concerned? Does that make you want to take care of me? Do you like sno-cones? How can you think of sno-cones when we have a HC to fire...or hire? Who sang the theme song to the Bond film A View To A Kill? It was Duran Duran! Why did I ask you? Have you ever been recruited by Scientology? Me neither! Why do they run away when I approach their tent? Oh God! My phone is going dead! Maybe I’ll borrow my cousin’s and I can ask you more questions! I punctuated it with an exclamation point because I’m not ASKING! You will take my next questions!
