Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

More power to Crouch and any and all players dedicated to change. More power to them. Got to start where we are at. It has happened. It's part of the beauty of the game.

If a coach is not living up to expectations you make a change. It’s simple to me. Butch failed because he was egomaniacal. He was not and is not a bad football coach (comparatively speaking). He’s a bad person.

I like Jeremy Pruitt and think he’s a defensive genius. He’s built a fantastic staff on paper. But this thing ain’t working so far. If it continues down this trajectory he will be fired. The only debate is when is too soon.

My wording “cheap” is kind of a snide comment about 1) people worried about money that isn’t theirs and 2) the baseline fear on everyone’s mind: that will fire Pruitt and hire someone worse and worse because we won’t spend any dough. I say those coaches are worth exploring even if they are cheap.

At his best, Pruitt is replacement level.

Against UGA I want to see sound fundamemtal football. If they win by 30 because they are that much better ok. But,no turnovers, know your assignments, execute and see what happens

We surprisingly pretty much did that last year outside of 1 fumble by Banks. They did just simply run us over eventually, but not until the 4th quarter.

At my HOA board meeting serving cold hard truth.

"Detroit" Hayden call in say who that @, betch? and do you want a fight?

Perfect mindset. Many of our fans could learn a lot from Q Crouch’s mindset.

Love his attitude. What a breath of fresh air.

That they're pointless and stupid?

Who's son in law is in the sun shade business? I love being in control of my yard. If I want to let the honeysuckle take over the yard, park in the street, and use my front porch for covered storage, it's my dang business.

No kidding. I dread moving but I think the next round of property tax increases in Nashville may drive me out.

Could never live off the grid. Down to move somewhere smaller but I need target, Whole Foods, etc

We’re getting our ass kicked but I like our coach. I like the growth in seeing from the freshman. I like the team to get better as the season goes on. Just hate that Jennings has to suffer through this. He doesn’t deserve it.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

When we move, the thrill my neighbors will get from seeing the guy with the shabby old house at end of the cul-de-sac sitting on several overgrown acres will be quickly replaced with horror when the bulldozers roll in to make way for 20 new houses on quarter acre lots.

Anyone else hear Barton Simmons on ESPN U radio a little while ago? They asked him about Tennessee, and to my surprise he was relatively upbeat, said obviously we're not seeing the results on the field that we would like, but he was confident that with our staff we would be able to continue to recruit well and get this turned around.

He was asked specifically about our current transfers leaving the program and he alluded to Butch Jones classes being recruits that were more interested in being recruited than they were playing football.

He went on the say that the 2019 class were football players first and foremost. Seemed to think the blueprint for that class and future classes is correct and will help right the ship.

I thought it was interesting to say the least.

i think its pretty obvious this class is a good one. staff has done a helluva job finding under radar players

Jackwads are doing that in Knoxville too. It's annoying to see 4 houses in 100 ft of road
