JG shouldn’t play anymore
Not pruitts fault for the upperclassmen we have that all suck, a lotta people said that when they were recruited and now we blame Pruitt???

But we should Fire Pruitt bc firing coaches has continued to work well for Tennessee. Some of you guys are just ****ing drama queens..... Glad we can’t give a guy a chance to weed out players and change the ****** culture that has been here for over 15 years now. This job was a problem and that’s why no one would touch it.

When JJ, Calloway, DTaylor, Bituli, Trey..etc are on NFL rosters will you still say they suck?

Good! Leave! It’s attitudes like this that are dividing this team. If you aren’t sure whether you want to wear the orange and run through the T, then you are part of the problem and don’t deserve the privilege of wearing the orange and running through the T one more day!! HIT THE ROAD!!!

Crazy talk. When you have a 4th year guy who’s supposed to be the man you don’t spend endless amounts of time trying to force a freshman to be ready to take over other than in mop up and emergency situations.

If we were sitting at 3-1 4-0 because we had a competent QB, we wouldn’t be having this conversation.

This is the better theory IMO

Saddest thing I heard from a friend yesterday and it hurt

He said to me “a generation of fans are being lost. Our kids will never care about Tennessee football like we do”

Given the current outlook of the program, that may be good for their mental health.

Hank, your the most negative ******* I’ve seen on here in awhile. I really wish you would go cheer for another damn team sometimes, maybe Washington state would welcome your fan card. Leach blew a nice 32 point lead to UCLA yesterday but I forgot he’s won so many championships that he’s a legend and would dominate the sec. the guy can’t even win the pac 12

I think it was clear Calloway should have stopped the route at the 1st down marker. The safety was over the top and clearly wasn’t going to be open continuing to run down the field

I swear its like you're not even watching the same game. The CB was playing the underneath zone in a Cover 2. He half ass disguised Cover 4 by playing soft at the line. Callaway maybe could've bodied him out of the way, sure, but how about as a QB you look to see your WR is there before throwing the football?

189 - 89

ONE HUNDRED POINTS.

This is the combined score of our last 5 games. Missouri, Vanderbilt, Georgia State, BYU, and Florida

It's pretty clear to me now. Butch Jones, Derek Dooley, and Lane Kiffin would not be 0-5 with the resources Pruitt has. We are not improving. Players are about to start lining up to transfer. Recruiting is dead. He simply has to go.

You can’t ignore the INT without counting it as a TD. It clearly was an easy TD

I'm not going to grade him as having a good quarter, even considering JJ should have caught that ball. Mediocre is what he deserves for his best quarter of the game.

For sure. If they don’t want to be here then you let them go. Don’t hold on to guys who aren’t committed.

However, I don’t think people realize what will happen if the guys rumored to leave really follow through with it. A ton of depth is lost - some for beyond this season.

MSU, USC, UK and Vandy all of sudden go from possibilities to near certain losses. If you want Pruitt to survive this, you want these guys to hang around until the end of the season.

I agree if they re bought into this program it's better they stay and hopefully find some wins late.

If not them staying or leaving is just not gonna matter all that much.

About to be a massive purge I think.

Same as last year and there was not much. Hopefully Pruitt has the team and these predictions are wrong. Some almost seem to want them, but they do no good. Hurts depth, hurts morale, and hurts image and recruiting.

Sorry if you’ve answered this but do you see a scenario where Pruitt is fired this year?

I honestly don't. I think if all the noise about upper classmen not buying in and getting on board with CJP and the younger guys wanting to run through a wall for him is true, then CFP knows it. He knows the issues and understands it will take patience. I don't think he will keep him just because he hired him. He loves UT more than that IMO.

Thank you
Hank thinks our senior and junior classes are legendary, just like mike leach who’s coaching himself into the hall of fame
