How does this get fixed I know there is alot of threads but UT football means to much to me. Do we get rid of Pruitt and go try to hire a top guy cuz I don't think they will come

They will have to purge the entire roster and staff. Bring in a coach from a lower level that knows how to coach. Then, get in a hyperbolic chamber and hibernate for five years because it is going to be tough road.

Nope it’s not done for good....but we are going to have to finally swing for the fences on a hire like Bama did with Saban. Leach, or Miles would have been homeruns that at the very least wouldn’t have embarrassed us like this.

That’s because we have never invested in a proven coach that can rebuild a program and has a record of doing so. CBJ has never rebuilt a program, Dooley was supremely unqualified, and Pruitt has never been a head coach at the college level. Therefore, we are in a perpetual rebuild

How do we turn it around? Ask guys like Majors and Saban who both engineered huge SEC rebuilds. You’ve got to be feared and respected by your players by being tough enough to get in their grills and hold them accountable for their performance and mistakes. If you accept mediocrity you’ll get it.

Pruitt apparently is a players coach. If that’s true he either changes his approach and gets tough or he’s done here. Dead man walking if he doesn’t get it

Michigan bounced back from the loss to Appy, to some degree at least. But it will require an admin willing to do whatever it takes to get s proven winner to rebuild the program. At present I can't imagine Tennessee doing that. Something will have to change drastically for the Vols to dig out of this hole.
