What is the over/under on how many times you are going to attack posters who aren't trolls like you?

I'll call anyone out on some bull hockey. Saying Dabo is overrated after what he's accomplished over the last 7 or 8 years is bull hockey.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Logic, reading comprehension and non-trollishness.

No not really. He was pretty much crapping on Clemson because they had 8 consecutive 3 star commitments, while at the same time he craps on people here who take a wait and see approach when a 3 star commits to Tennessee.

 

[chavisut]

They are fair weather fans. They don’t hold them more accountable. They are just front runners and the admin knows it.

Disagree.

UF fans have high expectations and they don't seem to put their coaches on a pedestal until earned.

lol that dude sure does love him some other coaches and programs doesn't he? He'll spend all day telling you how great Urban and Dabo are with such admiration for their greatness. And you better NOT SAYING SOMETHING EVEN SLIGHTLY NEGATIVE ABOUT HIS HEROES!!!

All I said was I think it's odd that Clemson has taken so many 3 stars (8 in a row). I would think a program that's had so much success lately would be landing bigger fish. That's literally what I said.

As if landing those 3 stars kind of isn't a good thing, so you'll throw a little jab Dabo's direction. Then you proceeded to say he was overrated. That's when I had to come in and set it straight.

I think it’s safe to assume that we have a pretty opinionated fan base with high expectations as well. We stopped a coach from even being hired here. Nothing like that has ever happened in college sports in my lifetime. I would highly doubt Florida fans would have had the same impact on a Schiano hiring. They would have accepted it. The problem is our administration just doesn’t care at all about the fan base. The administration at UF is much more concerned about the success of their football program and listens to their fans. Tennessee admin. is more concerned about the good ole boy system and who can scratch who’s back to get ahead in the long run. They want a company man as football coach who they can call at anytime to have influence over.

I'm going to break my rule and respond to you directly.

I didn't take a jab at Dabo, it was a factual observation. Sorry that hurt your little feelings. But guess what, this is a Tennessee message board, taking jabs at the competition is allowed and expected. And I know many Clemson fans, I have a few in my family. They're not happy with some of these pickups lately.

Dabo, Urban, Saban and all of your heroes can ESAD for all I care. And so can you.

 

[LaagerVol]

Last year just sucked in general. Everyone deserves An equal share of the blame imo. Coaches aren’t more at fault than the players or vice versa.

Coaches deserve more blame imo

Ouch. Appreciate the kind words. I bet your kin enjoyed all those championships though.

Freak says the new software not only blocks people you ignore but also posts that quote them. I can't wait.

"All those" = 1 under Dabo.

 

[volfanCLT]

"All those" = 1 under Dabo.

4 conference titles as well

Did say he was overrated. Chief disagreed. Discussion ensued.

 

[volfanCLT]

You don’t even have Chief blocked though

You responded directly to a post of his that no one quoted 🤔

 

[Chief Vol 13]

"All those" = 1 under Dabo.

To go along with 4 conference titles. Those are a big deal too. At least they are where I come from.

 

[Ron Swanson]

He is overrated. But he's still very good. He's not on the level of Saban or Urban but many like to say that he is. He's next tier at best. And with his success lately it's odd taking so many 3 stars where their best offer was his own. Not sure how that's a jab TBH.

He's had the luxury of being the best recruiter in a lesser conference. And only having to get his team to play their best a couple times a year. He'd be average at UT, UF or LSU.

Personally, I hope he goes to Bama when Saban retires. That program will take a step back and those fans will lose it when he goes 9-3 on the regular with an 8-4 sprinkled in. He'll get fired after 5 seasons.

Off topic question here...
If any of y'all happened to be using your personal vehicle for benefit of company work, hauling/transporting something, and doing so caused your vehicle to break, would your company pay for the repair?

I was using my diesel to haul a trailer loaded with company equipment bc my company vehicle is too small, and my turbo grenaded. Will be about a $5k repair cost.

Just curious as to some thoughts and experience if anyone has any...

Maybe they should help, but idk about paying the whole bill. The turbo didn’t likely grenade because you were hauling company equipment.

[chavisut]

Anybody saying he's as good as Saban is overrating him. Outside of that, not so much. He should be 2-5 on any list.

What's ironic is he hammers our staff for any recruit that is not a four or five star but he excuses Dabo Swindler when he takes 100 of them.
