False.

Pruitt took the worst Tennessee team in history and in year 1:

-Improved the win total, while implementing a new system

-Improved the conference win total by 2 games

-Beat 2 Top 25 teams

-Improved in basically every statistic

-Did all this against a MUCH tougher schedule than the 4-8 team

That’s a good job of coaching, no matter how you spin it.

This is a solid take.

Florida St was pedestrian on D, UGA was atrocious and UT defense was a porous dumpster fire

Florida st and uga were good teams. Yeah, he helped their defense, just like he helped ours slightly this season, as ive acknowledged. That doest necessarily translate into head coaching success. Not sure why that it such as unreasonable opinion...fact is neither side know which way it will go and we won't for 2-3 seasons..

So butch didnt have highly.rated recruiting classes? Lol, yea ok

Yea by signing 32 kids, try looking at star rating instead of what number he finished. Pruitt has already topped Butch’s best class before potentially adding two to three more top 50 recruits to it.

We out gained ETSU by 220 yards and won by 56 points. QB threw 13 passes and completed 8.
We out gained UTEP by 378 yards won by 24 and shutout UTEP. QB threw 16 passes and completed 12.

Neither team was good. Neither team had a chance to win the game. We didn't need to throw a forward pass to win either game.

Yet a competent team would have hung 70 on both in 3 quarters. Especially ETSU.

Clemson has 5 stars at every position too.

Pruitt.did not do a good coaching job this year. Maybe it improves next year, maybe it doesnt but noone here is stopping him from doing his job.

Wrong about Clemson having 5 stars everywhere too...
Wrong about Pruit doing a good job this year!
Freshman all American DB and another just as good, and improved players elsewhere say you lie!
He is doing his job, lazy Butch Jones players that didn’t care about winning and would rather lose than go bowling make it look like he wasn’t at times.
Was he perfect and mistake free? No , but Saban proved last night none are

You prove you are. You seem pretty content with the last decade of football and a 5-7 season this year.

Your approach shoulda fixed it by now. Not dooming every step isn’t acceptance...it’s an open mind. “Yeah but”’ing every possible positive development seems to work for you. It’s the heat of the arguments makes you appear invested in our ultimate failure.

In the recruiting forum someone put together a great piece of information on just this.
Team performance in relation to recruiting.
Alabama 5 year 5 star total 27?
Clemson 5 year 5 star total. 7?
May be off 1-2 but proves you’re wrong

I see you glossed over the star ratings comment. Doesn’t fit the narrative?

I didnt see a star rating, but you don't have to prove to me that coaching matters, ive been saying it.for a while now. Weirdly, I get laughed at for saying a coach is responsible for the overall performance of their team.

Okay, I.dont follow recruiting at all. But to say that clemson doesnt have elite talent is wrong as well.
