Our fan base deserves this one NICE thing this year.
We haven’t had that many for a while.
And, with UGA, AUB, AND BAMA, on deck, we likely won’t have any for a while.

"Got the Florida Gators coming this next week. It's why a lot of these guys came to Tennessee to play in games like this. I know it's why I came here to coach." - Pruitt

Hoping these players can take on the attitude of their head coach sooner rather than later. Butch Jones looks at Florida and doo doo's his pants. Pruitt thinks he'll kick their tail.

That's why we lost in 2016. We fell behind 21-3 and he crapped himself and we never recovered.....oh.......wait.

JG’s probably been our most consistent player this season. Dude has been very good. If our OL could block better he’d be one of the top QBs in the SEC and maybe the country. He can spin it and doesn’t turn it over. Way better than last year. Proud of him.

The biggest improvement I see is him not taking stupid sacks like he did last year. He's definitely rounding into a quality SEC QB.

I think he would have done better in college. I say that because I think recruiting would be off the charts. Kids eat that ish up.

He would be the first coach to have a college roster with an average age of 38. He hates coaching kids. The first thing he did was make Oakland the oldest team in the league. And trade the best player on the team.

That's not really fair on Mac. He wouldn't meet them at the table is what I read.

My point was he would have recruited lights out. He's a great salesman.

He would probably recruit great QB’s which would lead to good offensive guys too. Idk about defense

Sounds like Byrd will be targeted next we.... Who am I kidding JG can't throw it to anyone but Callaway unless it's designed to someone else

Tired: “How did Butch Jones not get the ball to Callaway more after his performance against Georgia Tech?”

Wired: “Why does JG throw the ball to Callaway so much?”

They could have paid mack. They chose not to. And there is really no evidence that he's a good recruiter. Just because he was on TV doesn't mean he can actually recruit. A big part of recruiting is evaluating. There's a lot of evidence that Gruden is a bad evaluator of talent. A salesman who can't evaluate sounds like our last coach.
