This is how you address the fans. Other players from last week who halfway went after the fans should take notes.

Crowd was AMAZING last night after arguably the worst loss in program history.

Ty played his arse off, so did Gray and the o-line for the most part. Bumphus and Toot are studs. Crouch quietly had one hellavu game as well. So did Shamburger and Theo Jackson.

Last night confirmed that Alontae has no chance in hell holding off Art Green or any other decent corner we may sign. And will need to move to free safety as soon as possible please. Nigel Warrior, you've been a big let down. Aubrey Solomon, see Nigel. Burrell at this point is looking like he was scouted and offered to play corner by Butch Jones. Kid has yet to successfully defend a pass that came his way. JG you have made me never want a soft, nothern guy ever again at any position in Knoxville. I'm so over JG and it's a shame because I really wanted him to do well.

The youth movement is in full effect and we may as well start at QB. JG is done

Why is DA not in the press box with JC? Seems we’ve had trouble on D the last two games. Do we think of DA was in the box he would be able to see the field better?

I felt like we were lucky to score 16 points in regulation and I’m pretty sure BYU is bad. Like 4-5 wins bad.

This might be the worst UT team ever. Worried we get absolutely smashed against any real team. Guess we’ll see soon.

So much for the development of 16 returning starters or whatever it was.

The FF is a disaster but by Friday next week it will be rah rah go Tenn again, just like this week.

We lost to GSU. In embarrassing fashion. Anybody thinking tonight or the rest of the season was going to be anything other than the same is delusional.

Do yard work, spend time with the family, do whatever...we should all have known after last week.....well hell....after the last decade, this was going to be **** show. It is what it is.

I legit don’t care anymore. At all.

See ya. The thing is...it wasn’t like the Georgia State game. We played with effort and saw what an OL can do. Just need a QB, and Bailey is coming.

byu vs tennessee - Google Search

Look at the stats for the game. Defense was not that bad . The offensive line didn't give up a sack and rushed for over 200 yds. It is glaring what the problem is . The two touchdowns were in spite of the throw. No confidence in the redzone because you are really one dimensional with a constipated QB.

I first went to Neyland at age 4 with my dad. Little did I know that would be the start of an incredible fandom.

The highlight of being a recruited athlete was an unofficial visit to Tennessee. In sports there is always that first love and for me it is Tennessee football, but it’s so much more then that. To this day Dad and I talk Tennessee football at least a couple times a week. The lows are hard, but it’s still given me so much. Sure I have spent plenty of money on it and want results, but I also see something in these young guys. I saw more of what I wanted out of Pruitt last night.

I’m gonna keep showing up, cause what’s the other option? Walking away or not caring simply isn’t one for me after 32 years.

Man I can’t wait till we get this right again.

We need to force turnovers. Need Bryce and Bituli back.

Bryce is not coming back. Bituli was pushed around all last year, I do not understand why people believe he is an asset to our Lb group. To To O has made more plays in two games than Bituli made in 2018.

Our Offensive line played fine and if we are suppose to believe our WRs are good it looks really bad for JG.

On Defense have we not been able to force a turnover against two mediocre/bad opponents?

I don't blame the coaches on this one. Am a little frustrated with the trouble we are having getting players in right position, but I think I bring a lot of this as a fan on myself. I convinced myself we were going to be so much better but in reality we still don't have the horses nor winning mentality yet. JG has had 4 years to improve and has been in so many of Peyton's QB camps but can't make reads still and by the time he see's an open WR its to late. This staff has won at other universities and I have to remind myself again this morning after another disappointing loss that we need more talent and need to clean house on Jones's players and mental attitudes. I hope one of the backup QB's shows out in practice and gets a change cause it can't be any worse than what we got now. GBO !
