I think it's really foolish to talk pro style vs spread these days.
Imo it's fast pace throw it all over the yard vs huddle up spread it out and be balanced.

Imo all Pruitt wants is someone that doesn't want to play up tempo

Regardless of semantics, football has and will continue to change to where up tempo teams will have inherent advantages in the game. The “impose your will,” harder-hitting teams won’t be the most successful, they will just be the most penalized.

How many of the playoff teams are uptempo?

So...Hank, McGee, InVol and others have convinced me Pruitt is a stupid dumbass that doesn't know how to run a program. He will hire some zombie for an OC that we will hate, and he will ultimately fail in an epic way, there is no hope for a brighter tomorrow, the players were great, and did their darnedest, but Pruitt being a stupid no-nothing ruined the season...ya'll happy?


The nightmare continues...
 
So wait.... All I heard this past off season was "we've got a full back, cowboy collars, and blocking tight ends".....


Now we don't like the type of offense CJP envisions? Over react much? Some of ya'll have bigger problems than UT football if this is the case.

Lol

Yep spot on

Shoop having a bad year here then having success elsewhere doesn't detract from the fact that our OL rarely knew who too block most plays.

I'm not just talking about a man getting beat by a better man because of weak S&C and 260lbs guards. I'm talking about the confusion many plays, when the numbers were in our favor (5v4).

Not suggesting he sucks or he won't get it fixed. Am suggesting he shouldn't be in line for a promotion until he DOES get it fixed.
Nope he forgot how to coach Ol this year..that's just the truth right?

“But it’s all on the players that don’t give a crap and just want to goof off and dance and didn’t want to go to a bowl game or have 15 extra practices!!!!!!!!!!”
Players bear zero responsibility. Coaches only to blame. You must motivate me to get me to perform. No need for self motivation. It’s not my fault. Give me a trophy uncle Hankie poo.

Fans were dumb for wanting that imo

There’s no elite teams that do that anymore. Uga is the closest and only thing to it

I didn't care to begin with, but you can have all those elements in a primarily spread based offense.
 
This vitriol toward Helton has taken focus off the defense, which gave up 88 points to Mizzou and Vandy. We lost those games by 58 points. The Vols didn't do well on offense or defense. And defense had the experienced players-- four SR starters on the DL and three of our best JRs in Bituli, DTaylor and Warrior. Big picture-- there's plenty of blame to go around.

The more I see the sicker I get. What a trash program. Tired of it all.
 
Interesting talk at USC. Helton met with Kingsbury today in LA. Also sounds like he will take a shot at Aranda as D.C. But they said the word is Aranda could go to Oklahoma as he is not happy being under coach O

He is back in his domain in that area and I do not think he is real keen here or fit in like Huggins does. His son I think has graduated or will this yr and not married. No Grier now and being the only sport here in wv, he catches a lot of hell because of this because of games like Friday against Oklahoma . His d coordinator has got to go that 3/3/5 is getting caught up by offenses (except ours lol). He is intense dude but kind of a weirdo too.

His son is a senior this year and I believe going to Bowling green on scholly next year.
All of this is 💯 on the money too.
 
I would be on board with Jake Spavital but he may be off limits. My west Virginia buddies are saying Holgerson is in play at Texas Tech especially if Brent Venables says no and Spavital would be their #1 option.


I am not sure why he would leave WVU to go another team in the conference that would be a step down at this point. Plus with Herman and Jimbo recruiting will not be easy.

Plenty of players in Texas to go around. Even playing second fifdle to all those schools there's more prospects than in West Virginia
