Just because you fell on hard times doesn’t give you the right to act stupid. Would he do that to his employer if he worked for them. Same concept. Life lesson needed. Hopefully he goes somewhere and learns from his previous mistakes. But that cancer is not needed at UT.

Going back to Hattiesburg 100% isn’t going to help him. Maybe he’s just one of those people that can’t be helped 🤷🏻‍♂️

Oh you can bet that he is. As soon as they showered on Saturday they had mandatory position meetings to basically ridicule play and teach.

Some trust issues with the holdovers which I think is going to make for a long fall.

Love the the new avi.

Just wanted to give a shout out to the Georgia State qb on his ability to sell the fake. Nothing to do with our loss to them, just always admired that. Can't stand the QB that bothers doing the fake handoff but doesn't sell it.

That guy had my eyes, our team, and all the TV cameras following the running back almost every keeper. Everyone should do it that way.

Just noticed your avi. I did a triple take, at least.

These kids put sooo much time and energy into this program. It’s very naive for anyone to think they don’t care about winning because someone behind a desk hasn’t cleared the path to winning to our liking

I think they get on campus feeling that way. Absolutely.

I don't think they leave campus feeling that way. Especially over the last decade. It's not their fault, of course, but the give a damn is missing by the end, and honestly, why wouldn't it be? I bet if you were to somehow poll the team there would be a clear difference in mindset between the underclassmen and upperclassmen right now, and that needs to change. I think Pruitt can do it if he gets time.

But to deny the fact that there are players on the team right now that really don't give a damn is naive. I'm sorry, it is.

@SergeantVol can you please use your mod powers to tell everyone that they must change their avi to help break the curse?

You can use your best drill sergeant voice and say something like, "If you have not changed your avatar by now, you are WRONG!"

TIA

Let’s make this clear.

There are a few players on every roster, even Clemson and Bama, that lose the will to work for winning. They lose that drive for various reasons. Every team in the history of team sports has that happen.


Now if you are saying that all players are leaving the want to win once they have been in knoxville awhile Knoxville, that’s the dumbest thing I have ever heard of. Sure losing games becomes easier for any player the more they do it but that Doesn’t mean they all of a sudden don’t care.

The only way that Maurer or Shrout could be worse is if they were throwing tons of interceptions. If they'll take care of the ball, play one of them. JG is useless

Exactly!.throwing interceptions are part of the game,it happens a lot from freshman.i would have no issues with that at all as long as we are throwing down field to open up our running game,I’m tired of seeing the damn box loaded.Brian has also shown he isn’t scared to flush the pocket to extend plays something JG doesn’t do.Chandler and grey will open up the flood gates once our passing game opens up.unfortunately JG isn’t the QB able to do it.

I just don't believe that just because you are a fan who has stuck it out...that you have the right to say as you please. We all have opinions and can critique and offer solutions, but at some point being a "fanatic" can cross the line.

I am a Positive Paul anyway, and some people just think they can do anything they want. I may not invest my money into the program like I used to, but I also haven't invested the time that every other player on that team has.

I'm all in on putting Crouch at RB too. I bet he could actually block someone unlike the backs we have now. Not to mention he's the hammer we're lacking at that position.
