as far as wins/losses go over hte past decade, there's a lot of programs that fall in that category.

Cat's post also stated we CAN'T compete with FSU. are you now saying we can't compete with LSU?

cause, we haven't competed w/anyone at the highest level of college football in a long time.

it's the notion that "we can't" that is just lazy. we can't compete with FSU, who hired a head coach with an overall losing record?

really?

or a program that whiffed on their first choice, twice in consecutive years, only to promote ed orgeron cause they were out of options, while they watch their first choices head to aTm and Texas a year later?

gimmie a break.

No no that’s not what I’m saying. I’m just saying in general they are about 10 jobs that are gonna be better destinations than TN no matter what is going on in football. I think FSU is one of those. FSU should be one of the easiest places to win in the country every year.

Look at Doug Matthews quotes and how a championship is a hold up, possibly a buyout, etc. Rush's team state title is tonight @ 8PM.

Maybe an announcement to come after?

That wasn't Catbone's point though. His point is we suck and our AD/coach doesn't want to win. I believe they chose to pass on Briles because they had reasonable concerns. FSU 'winning' in a game we chose not to play doesn't make them better.

Longer this goes, I really am thinking it’s an NFL guy. Pruitt may have had him longer than any of us know and all of these “interviews” were just that: interviews to find out more. However, no better what to learn how to stop the Spread/RPO offenses than going against one everyday in practice.

ok, then how did they not attract something better than sub .500 willie taggart?
how does LSU not land Jimbo Fisher or Tom Herman, in EITHER year they were looking, and have to settle for Ed Orgeron?
Chip Kelly told Florida "no thanks", do we then say UCLA is a beter job than FLorida?

just because you're a "destination" schoole doesn't mean that every decision you make = better than what we did at Tennessee.

I might double down on the **** show humor that would ensue on here before I can do that.

I do think it is Propst at this point. That way anyone else feels like a upgrade.

It’s not like he didn’t know what they were doing, but Mizzou ran RPOs as well as anybody we faced this year and it gave us trouble.

It wouldn’t be surprising to me at all if Pruitt was picking the minds of guys like Freeze, Briles, or Yurcich for things that give them trouble with RPOs.

Right..but half-hearted effort will get anybody killed against even mediocre offenses like Vandy, much less a skilled efficient offense like Mizzou's
