I hire staff all of the time. If I interview someone for a job that I have already filled, I am either an idiot, incompetent or a jerk. I don't believe that CJP is any of these things. We don't have anyone after a month of searching, while every other vacancy at every other school has been filled for weeks. I'm not asking for insider information, but a little info from the athletic department would be nice, (they run it like it's the NSA). Don't ask me for money and then tell me that things aren't my freaking business.

I wasn't aiming my anger at you. I'm just a little frustrated with this whole process.

Did you see Pruitts postgame after Vandy? He's a total jerk. Doesn't make him a bad coach....but his condescending attitude...shaking his head...as if reporter is idiot for daring to ask how we could annihilated by friggin Vandy.

If someone had cared to interview me after the Vandy game I'd came off as a superior jerk. When you see your team play like they could care less, then I'm ready for some new blood too. It was an embarrassment.

I've not made a statement regarding whether Pruitt is or is not going about his OC search in an effective manner. You on the other hand have postulated with certainty, that because Pruitt has been relatively successful as a defensive play caller at other schools, that he must assuredly be successful at evaluating and hiring an offensive coordinator as a head coach at UT.

I've reviewed every post I've made in this thread. Please show me where I EVER have made the conclusion you state above in the bold and underlined text.

You first question to me was to ask how I perceived that CJP has mad hiring skills.... I've tried very hard to be civil in continually replying to each of your follow-up statements and questions.

I've repeatedly asserted with unapologetic confidence that CJP has been VETTED by at least 3 NC coaches prior to being named the HC of our beloved VOLS. You really should take a few minutes to look up the word VETTED to see exactly what it means and what synonyms for the word exist to increase your comprehensive skills.

Ultimately--he has been affirmed and approved by his COACHING PEERS as QUALIFIED to be a HC in the SEC.

One of a lengthy list of qualifications for being a HC at any NCAA program is the ability to hire all coaching staff personnel.

Sir, there is a DIFFERENCE in being QUALIFIED and being SUCCESSFUL. I've never stated anywhere that CJP's qualifications AUTOMATICALLY guarantee that his next hire will be SUCCESSFUL.

IN FACT--I've stated that we won't have any true evidence to evaluate how successful his hire is until we've played some SEC games next season.

I've also QUESTIONED the intelligence of all those people on this board for griping about the time CJP is putting in to making his decision. It appears--if rumors are true--that CJP has NOT been granted AUTONOMY (you better go look that word up, too) in making this hire.

I'm done with this conversation. Good day, sir.

When I asked you to clarify how you could gauge the effectiveness of Pruitt's OC search/hiring methods, you responded by touting his success as a defensive coordinator, his history of working under successful head coaches, and your own ignorance of the methodology used in a college football coordinator search. None of which are related to head coaching ability, or even general hiring skills.

Given that his first choice of OC left at the end of a single season after getting UT from 124th in total offense to 121st, and he himself acts as his own DC, you'd have to redefine the word "success" in the English language for it to apply to Pruitt's coordinator hiring skills at the moment.

He may prove successful over time, but there's nothing about his resume or his first or second attempts at staff-hiring that indicates "success" at the moment.

If you don't consider kicking white chalk boards and screaming at other coaches sideline antics then that you man. I'm Entitled to my opinion, it's backed up by the fact he can't hire a coach. The fact you blindly defend a God that you don't even know especially after his very rude antics that have been described by others is very fascinating to me. Are you in love with him? To seriously sit there in defend a man you don't even know especially in the face of other people talking about how rude he is is mind boggling. Can you grasps that?

You Sir, are extremely soft and fragile. Also, your opinion is soft as well.

Do we start panicking if no OC by NSD??? Makes me wonder what the true plan going forward is...

If we hire the oc before signing day we’re not going to be any good next year. If we don’t hire the oc before signing day we’re not going to be any good next year. Why would we panic about this coach at all? The hire will be made before nsd regardless. The only people freaking out about this non issue are the fans. Nobody else

Hell half the fan base on this forum will say the OC hire was terrible no matter who we hire. People hated Debord when he was setting offensive records. I also remember people wanting Chaney gone, now they are talking about how they want him back. This board is like a woman with PMS.

Our fans are going to whine like hell no matter who we get. Our fan base Thinks whatever players put on the power T are sec caliber and if they don’t produce it’s the coaches fault. In around 2-3 years Pruitt will have his players and not the bums we have now. Last year they blamed everything on coaches and not the students pretending to be sec football players while wearing UT uniforms every Saturday. This year will be the same. Whoever the oc is, like Pruitt, let’s give them a legit chance before we turn into Tennessee and start the fire the coaches cycle we love every year.

All this fussin' and fumin'. It's gonna be Enos.

Nick has not given him the OC job.

Pruitt goes to guys he knows and trusts, that's why we have had to wait cause Pruitt honored his request and told him he would.

The rest is all a smoke screen generated by us and those like us.

Well I'm sure if anyone knows about being soft it would be you. And probably the misses as well. How's that for hot take? Be careful little lady, I'm sure there's more than just verbally you don't stack up to me.

Well looky there, a bunch of national championships and Super Bowl champions. I think they've earned their stripes, only one who has and is Tommy turberville and where's he at? Oh and Brian Kelly, hes doing real well too. This whole thing makes my point, people will respond to it when you are a winner, not when you're some 2nd class citizen riding the coat tails. Good job

Congratulations!! 4 days into the new year and you may have just locked up the dumbest post of the year and really showing to be a crybaby. Obviously you've never played sports because you don't think people should yell or scream at anyone. That's the problem nowadays everybody gets their feelings hurt if everyone doesn't give in to their childish ways and tell them what they want to hear. Can't hire a coach?? How the hell do you know that??? He hasn't found the one he wants yet, sorry that doesn't fit your timeline, go back to video games while the adults talk. Go ahead and flame back I'm looking forward to it!!

Look around, has anyone else taken 6 weeks in hiring a coach? Hasn't found what he liked? Maybe he hasn't found one that's like him. Has that ever occurred to you? It would be different if I was the only person on here making this argument, I'm not. So basically everyone who has my opinion is dumb and ever one that agrees with you, is smart? I bet you voted for Hillary Clinton didn't you?

Tell me their guy, how did the team respond to the coaching the last 2 games of the year? Boy they sure look good didn't they? Played their ass off for that coach didn't they? They lost to vandy and Missouri again. Read that last sentence real slowly, lost to vandy and Missouri again. But I'm sure that's the kids and not the coaching.

You don't get it. He called the SAME plays as last year with all his 5 star Bama players...(exhale)

I seriously question if he can actually call a defense and not just babysit 5
stars everywhere he goes. His Bammer mentality is not encouraging.
