Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Jackcrevol]

I am seriously leaning towards out now. He wasted a whole second half by not getting a backup QB ready.

he played Maurer, cant argue there.

Missouri beat Kensucky...I just dont understand this team. They have gotten worse. Is it a talent issue? Our recruiting was supposed to be decent.

Feels like we have been 2-3 years away for 15 years now.

And it shows no signs of getting better any time soon.

I’m upset at the defense, but a Georgia’s vaunted defense gave up 400 passing. I’ve also accepted the fact that we aren’t going to win consistently while Bama and Georgia are recruiting like this unless we hit on a generational QB.

Your last sentence is dead on. Convincing ourselves that every 3 star is a diamond in the rough is fools gold and downright stupidity. On average, we won’t get it done with these type recruits.

I wonder if we see any transfers this week?

 

[Aesius]

I always build up this program in my head then the program proves itself. We aren’t committed to football.

And we have Fulmer as AD. There’s no one else who cares. And even he can’t get things going. It’s over.

Yes, you can argue. Maurer or Bailey should have been in mid way through the third qtr.

The O-line looked better today.
Jaylin Hyatt is fast. Maybe throw it to him more?
The running backs don't break tackles.
The secondary is not good at catching the football when it hits them in the hands.
I'm not even going into the QB situation.

And....that's about it.

Pruitt lost the fan base today. He had every opportunity play HB and didn’t. You payed JG into the very end of a blow out loss. THAT is coaching malpractice. I’m leaning out on him. I have no confidence he’s the right guy for the first time.

 

[engineerVOL]

Coach Pruitt and this entire coaching staff is clueless.

I no longer believe he is “the guy.”

He’s a Bammer plant. I’m amazed he can’t coach defense. I’m not shocked he’s a terrible manager of the offense.

 

[31VFL]

Nope. It feels like the dip in recruiting is inevitable at this point.

 

[InVOLuntary]

What's the general feeling here? Pruitt still got support?

We as fans believe this program deserves great coaches then we hire guys for on the job training

 

[Devo182]

Really hard to keep cheering this team on. I mean, I will, but damn. It’s hard to keep finding reason to keep tuning in.

How about...every other game is winnable?

Shore up the defense and all remaining 5 opponents are very susceptible. We'll never see another offense like that. We have some things to lean on and can win any/all of the last 5 games. Long shot we closeout, but maybe we go 3-2 and still meet preseason expectation.

Amazing that COVID-19 was entirely localized in Knox County and only affected UT football

 

[rjd970]

F that. This is unacceptable. Somehow everyone else was just fine under the same circumstances. Including KY.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Fire him

Kiffin hung with Bama in year 1. We are year 3 under Pruitt and getting blown out

He did here and at Ole Miss. Pruitt just ain't the guy.

No support from me

 

[nashvol1]

Mizzou going to pass us by in the East.

Will beat us 2/3 years.

Knox County is attacking this thing stupidly because the health department has too much power

Sorry, not buying it.

KY beat us 34-7 at home. At what point do you accept we are what we are? Seriously?

 

[31VFL]

Too bad it somehow did not effect everyone else as much.
