In essence, not really. Those 50,000 people are booing at thier own discression.

The only difference is that "negative" words are not used by 50,000 in unison.

50,000 people booing is not an accident or a knee jerk reaction. It is a mob, and that's what we don't need.

Yeah guys, they stuck it out with Dubose and now are in the top 10.

Because we all know if fans hadn't expected more then Dubose would have definitely smashed Clemson and Arky.

Sad thing is Dubose had a more recent SEC Championship than Fulmer, was a Bama alumni and still got fired.

??????? Uh, again, there is a diffence between a "negative word" vs 50000 people booing as the team leaves the field. Sorry you don't see the difference.

Oh, I see, it has to be a multitude of people performing negatives acts. Yes, I see clearly now. One, two, ten, or a hundred people cannot influence others in a negative way. One, two, ten, or a hundred people cannot drive away a 5 star recruit by their actions. It has to be by only 50000 boo birds, confined, inside, not outside of Neyland Stadium. Your wisdom is unequaled!

Fact is, our team was pitiful today! The boo birds were not the problem!

But they have the choice not to boo. That is up to them. You're basicaly trying to say that someone is forcing the fans to boo, and that simply isn't true.

I'm pretty sure I can name a few people that are just about forcing them to boo if not leave the stands in bulk.

No, I'm saying that only a classless person would join other classless people in booing 18-22 yr old players of the team they "supposedly" support.

Sure, boo the opposing team. Scream at their offense when they're on the field. But booing your own players? Are you an idiot? You think that is productive?

The fact that Coach Cut went to be a head coach at a 1-A program makes this totally irrelevent.

You're not being honest if you say that we hired Cut thinking he was going to stay. Hell, he was looking for a HC position will we were pursuing him

i'm the last person to be one of the teams i support, but today was the worst i think i've seen a vols football team play in my 23 years of existence on this earth. yea lets not boo them cause the real world is easy. if you can't handle being criticized you might as well not be playing football or working and living on your own cause there's a lot of things that happen in the real world than getting booed on the football field.

If their coaches aren't doing a good job letting them know when they mess up, maybe what's left of people that actually care to spend a lot of money and waste a perfectly good Saturday will.

Again, we're not booing the players, we're booing the coaches and the playcalling.

You keep rehashing the same points over and over again, which we've given you sound, concise answers, and all you wanna do is sit there, have your Kool-Aid, and be an ignorant fool.

I continue to think the failure of the coaching is NOT in the playcalling. Our offense definitely had the matchups and capability, but player error thwarted them. Again, not the play that was called.

Can I ask what do you intend to do about this booing problem. What? Bring back the Soviet Secret Police to make booing fans "go away for a while"

You're right. Booing is good for the team. Keeps them sharp, helps motivate them.

Just sad that we lived up to the sterotypes....the entire county saw a bunch of rednecks painted orange, yelling at their own players who they knew didn't stand a chance in winning in the first place.

Brillant. Absolutely Brilliant
