I don't disagree. It made Butch Jones tolerable for 2 additional yearsThe difference between looking like an average coach to a good coach is an elite QB. The only thing keeping people from singing Pruitt’s praises about us being 3-1 and competitive with everyone is that we do not have a QB.
Hopefully Maurer changes that
The Tennessee and LSU jobs are very similar. Both places have the ability to elevate a coach to make him look a little better than he might be. Facilities are top shelf, only major football school in the state, strong brand names. Administrative malpractice that we haven't been able to get a guy who can win 8-10 every year. Hopefully Jeremy can get us there.he is also one of the best DL coaches in the country.

People don’t like it when we say it, but if we had anybody else at QB we would be 3-1 with a competitive loss to Fl. That doesn’t mean there aren’t other issues, there clearly are. But nobody would be saying Pruitt isn’t the guy and that we should fire him.I don't disagree. It made Butch Jones tolerable for 2 additional years
I'm hoping Harrison Bailey is to ut QB as Jamal Lewis was to ut RB. And UGA lives to regret not pushing for him too...People don’t like it when we say it, but if we had anybody else at QB we would be 3-1 with a competitive loss to Fl.

Dobbs saved the interns job. When he left it was clear there was no real recruiting or development. Pruitt doesn’t have that luxury. He has to develop what we have without a QB. We’re waiting on Bailey and hoping he’s good. If he is we’ll be competitive with him as long as Pruitt keeps recruiting like he did in the 2019 class.
These guys didn’t come to Ut and forget how to coach. And as I said last night, nobody thought any coach on our staff was garbage before they got here. They are all high quality and highly respected coaches. That’s undeniable.
