You have the right of free speech but not from the consequences of being ignorant.

I don't think Butch can be held strictly liable, but I am not going to explain to you what that means.
Actually can you? I wasn’t able to get into hardee’s Institute of law like you so I need you to give a word by word definition of everything in your post. Enlighten o’ wise one!
 
This.

But I will say if there is legitimate proof that the coaching staff actually knew he was concussed, not that he should have known, then I agree that Butch needs to go. I simply don't see, at this point, proof of him knowing about nor broken procedure BY Butch

See....that's how you have a rational thought. Proof of coaches playing a player they believe to have a concussion should, and would, carry dire consequences for those coaches.
 
To think the backup QB won’t be needed for more than one play with four games remaining, including two against physical SEC defenses in LSU and Vandy? THAT would be stupid. :idea:

How many snaps did the backup play, due to injury, against the 2 most physical defenses in the SEC earlier this year?

If someone gets hurt, that’s a different story. If it’s for 1 play because his helmet came off (which is explicitly what the tweet says) that’s moronic. So par for the course regarding personnel decisions under Butch.

I think Butch should have been fired weeks ago. But there's no need to allege malfeasance and misconduct to fire the man. The AD can terminate his contract at any time.

You've gone lunatic fringe on this. You're acting like someone ready to steal a gun, head up to the top of Ayres Hall and start firing.
Woooooooooah that gun comment is...dare I say lunatic fringe? Did my opinions on butch and his negligent culture really offend you that much?
 
I know Kendrick is concussed, but I think it’s probably a bad sign that he hasn’t had someone put a statement on social media for him. He is one of Butch’s main guys with media, and I feel like he would shut this down if it wasn’t true. Hopefully it gets cleared up soon, one way or another.

There has been virtually no players come to Butches defense on social media in months. It's very telling imo

Well there is a much tighter fraternity in play in those environments but no, he probably could not.

First off Butch has done these things. Second, you're basically saying that someone did not do something unless they formally got caught or reprimanded.

Go ask a few players if Butch has ever hit a player before you speak. please.

If this is for a lost helmet situation why would we not just run 1 play in the wildcat with Kelly? All Mcbride would do is hand the ball off anyways, this seems really careless burning a redshirt for 1 or 2 snaps.

Ok anonymous one you must speak the truth!

Also I am not saying one has to be "caught" or "reprimanded" but seriously everyone has a camera in their pocket this isn't 1980.

The good news today is that those people crazy enough to think CBJ has any chanceto come back next year should find comfort in Antone resigning. That is a definite sign of where we are right now.
 
Ok which person in here sent Clay an email?...Hmmmmm? Hmmmmmm? :)

" But according to multiple sources inside the Tennessee program who reached out to Outkick under the condition of anonymity"

Wonder if it is Antone. Might be why he resigned, because he knew why was happening was wrong.

Concussion Gate

It’s real.

Let me start off by saying- from what I've seen- hard to condemn Butch too much for this. Additional info may come out.

That said, This is the type of unintended consequence for taking half measures- i.e. not going ahead and letting Butch go. Nobody wants or wanted to deal with this. Decisive action may have prevented it from blowing up.
 
Ok anonymous one you must speak the truth!

I don't know anything about specific facts, news, or claim to be some anonymous source that yall get off to. It's pretty easy to gauge the general feel of a team towards their coach and his actions though. You do this thing called asking the players you go to school with. try it.
 
Also, his family had a meeting with the coaches/AD. This is not something that is going to be brushed away lightly as some would think.

I’m guessing this meeting that occurred yday is when Butch and Currie had the loud public argument.

The question is whether Kendrick made someone aware of this situation as it was unfolding or, based upon his behavior, should a member of the coaching staff that interacts with him when he is on the sidelines, should have known something was up. Him getting blown up on the field or missing an assignment, by itself, is not evidence of a concussion.

Can't believe I'm chiming in on this lol. My take is pure speculation like everyone else, but, it's hard for me to believe Wells didn't know something was up. I could possibly believe Butch didn't know, but that's speculative too because he MAY have known.
 
Wonder if it is Antone. Might be why he resigned, because he knew why was happening was wrong.

Also could be because he is tired of all the friggin rumors that never stop, sees the writing on the wall and just decided the time was right to exit stage left.

I am grown man I don't go to school but please pray tell who have you talked to to get all this damning info that us laymen aren't privy to?
