Welp...it's been great for the most part, about the only thing that involves being a Vol that I've enjoyed for the last ten years, but I think I'm going to just take a hike from following football for a while...just way too much bad news coming in waves, for way too long. It's just not any fun anymore, and I'm sick and tired of being disappointed, with no end in sight.
I've come to believe LWSvol has been right all along about the program, and all I do is get on everybodys nerves speaking my mind on what I believe to be the truth.
This years class is going to end up 12-20 and be a major disappointment, we are getting a crap OC, and Pruitt will be fired after four years IMO. I really hope that I am wrong about it all though.
Love you guys, have fun, and maybe I'll see a few of you in the M&M or Pub forum from time to time.

We need to develop.....4 and 5 stars.I feel ya but you've got to get over recruiting class rankings. There is more than a few teams that waxed our butts along with plenty others in our conference with a slew of two and three stars. We need to develop. Period. Also if we get Briles...life will be fun again I guarantee it.
See you around lunchtime. Actually, do hope you stay. A break may refresh you. All the best for you.Welp...it's been great for the most part, about the only thing that involves being a Vol that I've enjoyed for the last ten years, but I think I'm going to just take a hike from following football for a while...just way too much bad news coming in waves, for way too long.

I think a lot of people are missing the point that with an up tempo offense you can get to the line quickly and prevent the opponent from substituing, but you can let the play clock run down before snapping the ball. This gives you the best of both worlds: uptempo and ball control. I think this is the offense pruitt wants. Check out the chargers offense, very quick to the line but slow to snap the ball
Exactly, Peyton was a master at this in the NFL especially at Indy.I think a lot of people are missing the point that with an up tempo offense you can get to the line quickly and prevent the opponent from substituing, but you can let the play clock run down before snapping the ball.

Sorry for my stupidity, but wouldn't we kinda be shooting ourselves in the foot if we decide to swap schemes again. We recruited a certain type for a certain scheme last year and now changing again.JAV is back posting some on 247, he has some good insight into Briles offense and Pruitt's thinking, though I'd share a few of his posts from last night...
