That was a dang good answer coach šŸ‘ I have gotten mad just like everybody else, but I still believe Pruitt has it in him to be great, and I want to give him the time he needs. As long as he keeps them playing hard and steadily improving, I will stay behind him...just no more zombie ball coach. No more quitting.

I agree. Thing is we don't even need him to be great. I want him to but we just need him to right the ship IMO

YouTube?

So watching this one YouTube video. I donā€™t see how you continue to play Warren Burrell. The kid cannot tackle, get off a block, and plays like 20 yds off his receiver and still gets beat. There has to be another DB who can play where he is.

A few guys from the 2017 class considering the portal per VQ

Lots of non factors in that class so it could be a number of different guys. All of Botchā€™s whiffs in that class are a prime reason our roster is in the shape itā€™s in. You wonā€™t see those kind of deficiencies moving forward as Pruitt actually evaluates in person and not off of Rivals.com

Pretty sure there's a reason JG has been on the field; maybe you don't want them to roll out the other QBs because JG is the best chance to win?

Real question: How did JG go from being a decent QB last year to a major reason for going 0-2 to start the season?

(I know: new QB coach, new OC, new system... but he's making freshman mistakes. I don't understand.)

Probably not. He's the best we have until BT gets his crap situated.

Rewatching the game... it is unbelievable how many wide open receivers JG missed and how late he was on his throws. Itā€™s crazy.

Yeah....I have seen several idiots complain that WRs were not getting separation, and that Cheney didn't call a good passing game...They are either stupid, crazy or blind...If JG did not suck giant elephant nuts, if he was just marginally better...we could have hung 40+ on them. There were receivers running open all over the place. This offense is never going to do any better till he is gone.

Hell...if we are going to lose, might as well lose with kids who have upward mobility. I supported JG because you have to believe a guy can marginally improve, and I thought his OL was causing him a lot of his problems..nope...he is just a horrid horrid QB...

@HankHill...you were right all along about him...I'm man enough to say it....but don't get cocky, you still say a lot of stupid stuff.

This makes absolutely no sense to me. If you are truly a fan, how can you just decide to check out? I can understand you're upset, stop spending your money, going to games, etc. But if you're a fan you can't just decide to not be; it's a part of who you are. My blood runs orange, I guess that's not true of all fans.

Ditto...still wearing my hat around here, and these idiot bandwagon Kentucky Bama fans keep talking trash at me šŸ¤® They make it soooo easy to put them back in their pathetic place.

Win or lose, I am a Tennessee Volunteer forever.

The whole point was Iā€™m not calling a class thatā€™s starting 0-2 with a loss to GA stage at home better than one that had a lot of instant impact guys that went on to have nfl careers.

Is it too early? of course. This class could very well turn out better. But which new comer can you look at and say wow that dude is instantly a difference maker. Maybe Henry T? Thatā€™s who Iā€™m highest on.

Crouch will be a beast. Just watching him and his size and speed on the field. Heā€™s good.

Since Saturdayā€™s outcome Iā€™ve been doing a lot of meditating (drinking and crying). During which Iā€™ve finally accepted this is probably a 5 year rebuild. I donā€™t think I or anyone else really grasped how depleted of talent we were after cbj. Iā€™m going to take this years outcome with a large grain of salt. We have to be patient with this staff and they at all costs have to keep this recruiting class together or else we may never break this cycle.

Vols now 100% CB on 247 and 100% on Rivals futurecast for Jaden Springer. Three 5 stars plus great shot at PJ Hall. 4 star Victor Bailey and 4 star Uros Plavsic transfers. Holy Sh-t
