Progress, right?

It means that with JG getting his block knocked off and several other dirty hits we had on players we have no depth at all - plus we need better talent

Many time people forgets that we have new OC that ALL the Sec laugh at us saying he won’t be good. We will see he come in and do good job with players and it will be great for Pruitts and for the entire stage of Tennessee. I know this because I’ve been a fan for this and that is what we do.

It's come down to this:

... if we win our next one, we're in a bowl, if only a lesser one.

... if we can't beat Vandy to get our record above .500 ... we don't deserve to be in a bowl.

Well I guarantee you we won’t be above .500 when the regular season ends. I do believe we will bounce back and beat Vanderbilt to get to .500 though.

I actually agree with this. The whole "talent" excuse is invalid with Vandy. This game will be 100% on the coaches.

Coaches don’t play. These are all good coaches, they didn’t come here and forget everything. Talent wise our lines are at a deficit. Some of our linemen have no business playing in the SEC, but we have to roll with what we got until current deficits get recruited over.

Vandy has more talent at the skill positions. Shurmur at Qb, Vaughn at RB, Pinkney at TE and Lipscomb at WR are better than anybody we have at those spots. And I think it goes without saying that Vandy is better and tougher on both lines of scrimmage than Tennessee. So yes, talent is definitely an issue in this game. Pruitt will have to overcome a talent deficiency to win this game vs Vandy and I dong believe he can do it.

No progress this year. We've had several unbelievably poor performances that can be traced to poor coaching. If you don't believe me, then look at Pruitt's own father's comments.

We won a game against a west opponent for the first time since 2010. We won two conference games with a chance to win 3, compared to going winless last year. If you see no progress this year you're just looking for something to complain about. Either that or your blind

AGREED!! Vandy is freaking loaded with talent. No we match up well with them Boys. Knute Rockne, General NeyLand, Bear Bryant and Nick Saban working together coUldn't gEt this team a win next weekend.

I say iF this staff actually pulls a miracle Out we should just give them all lifetime coNtracTs at twice their current salary!

Exactly. Its getting so old seeing people blaming coaches for virtually everything. Its like they think the coaches coach and play. Its laughable.

Unfortunately, I did lose vision in my right eye in an accident. You're very kind to point that out.
