Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[KPT_VFL]

Fanbase is done with Pruitt. His tenure here is effectively done at this time. Lose to Ga State and look like a high school team against Florida in year 2.

Agree. It’s over. We’ve been through enough. Please God just somebody end our pain.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

The vols are making me feel better and better about working Saturdays.

 

[SLICKYINC]

Imho, No longer matters if Pruitt has any chance of ever being a decent coach, being hitched to JG will be the end here.

But watching our defense still look to the sidelines with confusion is not a good look at all.

Literally gonna lose his job because he won’t bench him. The fan base and recruits could deal with losing and being competitive with BM and JT but not JG. Everyone has seen enough of him.

I’m trying really hard to not just be negative.





It’s not working

I’m all for letting JJ play QB. HOW MUCH WORSE CAN IT GET

 

[VolGee4]

Mullen and Grantham again proven the better playcallers and developers. Chaney doesnt seem to understand our strengths and is putting JG in a box he doesnt fit. Hasnt developed our QBs whatsoever. Chaney needs immense talent to appear successful and we dont have it right now.

Holy moly. Chaney clearly schemed his TE to be wide open by 25 yards, and our QB missed him. Chaney got JJ open on a route at the goal line and it ended up with an INT.

Chaney helped start Peterman, put Brees in the league, and coached up a true freshman Fromm. It ain’t him.

1.5m and I have yet to hear a single play heralded as a great call. He always was a solid, but top-35 or 40 playcaller. Solid, but never genius or innovative. He lived off others' systems for a decade, then got sucked into the run heavy doldrum. Now hes lost any ingenuity he had learned while at Purdue. Even worse he no longer "plays to his players' strengths". It just seemed that way at UGA because anyone can call a run play 65% of the time with their stable of backs lol.

Meanwhile Mullen developed a guy that hasnt started in 7 years to throw for 300 yards. He took a 21 PPG offense and in his first year scored 35 PPG.

The gap in COACHING between us and UF was very present today. Not recruited talent, not time in the system. Pure coaches vs recruiters.

That’s Kirby’s offense just as well as it is on D.Chaney just had play makers.

Maurer should have been playing all year

 

[SaguaroVols]

Spread against UGA... I'm thinking 21-24 point underdog if not more.

It’s JG. The team knows it but they won’t just throw him under the bus. They look different with BM playing.

What happened with his interception today? I saw he was 4 for 11

 

[volfaninpa]

To actually regress in year 2 is something few teams can do. UT is in a Kentucky/Vanderbilt cycle of bad hires and teams. This is now completely a basketball school.

I’d take Georgia with those points right now. Bet the house

 

[tdbigo]

I'm getting it all out and thank you @Freak for this site. But we are ****ED AGAIN. JG is horrible....horrible. Florida is not a good team and we make them look soooooo good. ATL VOL your ****ing pockets ain't deep enough. I love you brother but you can't fix dumb ass coaches. The BEST fanbase in America gets ****ed yet again!

 

[RikidyBones]

Ball hit the WR in the hands, popped up and intercepted

 

[Volsdeep4]

Chaney is abandoning the run far to much.

That’s what you do when you play from behind

One day we may hire some coaches that have done more with less and proven it.

I’m not sure what you have watched. Chaney has gotten DWA open multiple times- against GSU when we needed it and wide freaking open on a key series today.

He’s has called multiple plays where WRs are open without a throw. I don’t care if people want to complain about a “screenshot.” I’m watching games and using my eyes.

I agree about the defense and don’t understand it. We were much more aggressive last year. But right now, we have a serious problem at QB.

 

[Dooby15]

Man, just nothing to look forward for to for Tennessee football.

Pretty sure it was deflected. I was in and out on this game. So damn boring. So damn predictable.


This is as bad as it gets

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Butch & Pruitt both willing to sink on the JG ship.
Why?

Granted, the team hurt themselves a lot, I can’t just toss the defense under the bus. It’s hard to be that young & inexperienced without great depth and be expected to be on the field the entire game. Even after generating turnovers.

 

[901LookAlive]

That’s what you do when you play from behind

You don't give up on the run after halftime

 

[volfanCLT]

Man, just nothing to look forward for to for Tennessee football.

Coaching searches are the most fun we have round these parts anymore

 

[chargervol]

Literally gonna lose his job because he won’t bench him. The fan base and recruits could deal with losing and being competitive with BM and JT but not JG. Everyone has seen enough of him.

And him being a team leader this year has probably inflicted a lot of damage.
When your leader almost single handedly destroys every opportunity for points, what happens? Can't gameplan around him...receivers don't have a clue what to expect..RBs have to be tired of getting the **** knocked out of them because defenses can stack the box.

JG seriously has evidence on Pruitts recent cheating scandal..it’s obvious.JG is just waiting to give @David Ubben the “Ok!” Once he’s benched again to report the news leak.then Jg’s dad will come out on Twitter and defend just how good of a QB his son is and that it ain’t JG.

Conspiracy theory time. Butch paid for JG?
