Pruitt really trying to ride this train until the end huh?

This week doesn’t tell us what Pruitt is going to do at QB going forward. The Arkansas game tells us what Pruitt is going to do going forward. Today is a “get to the bye” kinda day.

(I’m quoting you, but not criticizing you. Just have seen a lot frustrated because of the probability of JG starting today.)

Even the bama fan on SEC nation saying we shouldn’t start JG, my goodness

My brother-in-law said the same. He said, "All I know is he ain't making it to halftime. That stuff last week was ridiculous. Pruitt has a good team he just needs a QB and I don't know why he plays that guy."

Pruitts press conference this week told us what he's gonna do. He not ready to shelf JG. As long as he doesn't completely implode today he's the starter. And him imploding doesn't completely mean he won't get trotted out there again.

It doesn't change the fact that the entire team hears their own fans booing as they walk out for series 1...the opposing team hears it too...nice boost for them. What does that do to the team's psyche before even a single play? And on national TV, recruits and everyone sees us booing our team (many won't know if the players or staff is being booed...either way, not a good look to anyone).

All so fans can "get out" their anger. It is how a child would act. Cutting off their nose to spite their face. Do they have no other ways to vent?

You are bringing the heat today. The only responses you're getting is "I can do what I want," while crossing their arms and stomping their feet. Lol, they know that the points they are making are weak and lame.

I had a feeling that’d come up haha. Seriously btw tho I have to thank you for bringing me down to earth the other day about being argumentative. I’d been allowing too much negativity to steer me back into my anger on here & I was seriously lashing out. What you said the other day helped me refocus on here. We’ve got some great people on here but also some douche nozzles as well but that’s what makes this place what it is.

Haha yeah there are a few asshats for sure! But I don’t believe there are an astronomical amount of trolls, just legitimately frustrated UT fans. I noticed a change in your demeanor since about the time the season started. You were running hot! Glad I could help in someway. Feel free to go after @Big Gucci Sosa all you want though! He seems to be the new Catboner King of Negativity!

As if that takes away the fact they are human beings.

I wish more fans could get closer to big time athletes and understand what they go thru. Especially high profile ones

I agree if we are talking about DII, DIII, etc. If universities demand large donations from fans, pay head coaches $4 million plus, pay coordinators $1.5 million means the days of fans being expected to sit there and watch stupid coaching decisions over and over are long gone. They have professionalized SEC football so the fans are going to react accordingly and have every right to do so. Continuing to trot JG out on the field means CJP is too ignorant to recognize he is playing the wrong quarterback, too stubborn to admit his qb plan is not working or a competent qb isn’t on campus. All scenarios lead back to a failure by CJP. The fans dedicated enough to go to games this season are smart enough to see the failures in how the qb position has been handled are going to let their feelings be heard.

The best way to do that is keep your money. Booing the kids accomplishes nothing.

He can say whatever during the press conference.
Multiple media types (VQ guys for instance) have said HB was getting more reps. They have said we should expect multiple QBs. Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but that is a change of direction from fall camp and the first 4 weeks. It indicates Pruitt may be working toward a different direction. I will say, I think by Arkansas JG goes back to the bullpen, AND we see him in multiple games just like the 2nd half of last season.

Bama being Bama, I’m all for taking our lumps with JG today if it can be done without totally losing the locker room and fanbase. Then ride or die with HB getting all the snaps with 2 weeks to prepare for Arkansas. Kinda makes me sick to say that because it seems a lot like conceding today, but it might be for the best in the long run.

Didn’t think I’d say this, but I’m glad to see Big 10 football. Mainly because Nebraska drove right down the field on OSU, but also because this game is already better than any ACC game so far this season.

I didn’t realize it until this season, but ACC football is completely uninteresting to me.
