Wonder if the health of Allen’s mom has anything to do with it? Came blame him if so.

That could be it.

 

[Dudley Smith]

I think the coaches were disappointed by what Allen gave them this year.

I expected more from him as well but he was adjusting to the SEC from JuCo so I thought there would be a good chance he’d show improvement. They’d know better than I.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Wow Jordan Allen in the transfer portal and Latrell williams

Another JUCO bust. Coach was riding him hard in spring and everyone thought it was because they saw greatness in him. I suspected it was desperation because they knew he wasn’t going to get it done.

Good luck out there

This doesn’t seem random:

 

[Catbone]

Actually surprised Purdue is looking this bad

 

[HankHill]

May want to check the Baltimore Ravens as they have gone to power run with Jackson at QB. It has keyed their recent run (plus their defense)

Their offense sucks.... they have the best defense in the league.

Thanks for showing up random slow unathletic Big 10 team

Please please please stop relying on juco guys.

4-2-4 guys that were elite hs talents are the only ones that we should ever consider

That is the ideal situation, but we needed/need immediate help and have to take a few flyers. Some work, some don't.

Just saw a guy dressed head to toe in UT gear cheering like crazy for that Auburn TD.

You sir just lost your Vol Card

Pappoe?

I think the coaches were disappointed by what Allen gave them this year.

They gave him some reps at ILB during the Charlotte game I believe. If he couldn't get on the field at JACK/SAM late in the season post Kongbo injury that's a telling sign.

Purdue's quarterback Bloughs.

 

[drvenner]

Ain’t not big deal and it’s a rather painless ordeal. I did feel like I just got kicked in the nuts for a couple of days but it wasn’t too bad.

So, basically, just another day in the life of a Tennessee football fan. Got it!!

I believe that's what Bruin means by 4-2-4. Guys who started out at a 4 year school.

Moore’s a bad dude though.

 

[landscapingvol]

Crap

No worries Pruitt is in no hurry and it’s not really that important

 

[landscapingvol]

The fact is Pruitt is right.

If you don't have players who OC is is overrated. The problem is the OC elevates every roster if they are good. Helton didn't do that this year and that is why we didn't go bowling.

Jimmies and Joes can win us 8-9 games but we better get a damn good OC or elite recruiting won't do better than we did under the last staff.

Well we still don’t have the players yet so we can just hire anyone and it won’t really matter because we don’t have the players. Amirite?

 

[volatil]

Lmao Purdue defense

 

[Volator]

Their offense sucks.... they have the best defense in the league.

12th in the league (overall) and #2 rushing is not sucking. Especially considering the QB transition but don’t let facts get in your way

Exactly



Not fond of 4-2-4 guys that went to small 4 year schools either. The recruit we lost to USC late was that. Didn't want him because of that

 

[UTProf]

I hope Pruitt's OC can disguise and misdirect as well as Pruitt's OC search.

This here, boys and girls, is what we call wit.

A rather depressing stat:



2018 NCAA OFFENSIVE LINE STATS | Football Outsiders

Until the problems with our OL are rectified, we'll not see improvement in the win column.

OL has been 90 percent of our problem since Dooley's guys graduated/left. Both Dooley and Jones knew what would be coming too but what kills me is that Butch had time to remedy the situation and didn't. Why did he keep recruiting so many undersized projects at OL when we needed a bunch more Trey Smiths? Dobbs fooled everyone into believing progress was being made because he was just that good.
