Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Just watched BJ Olijuri get a sack on the SC Qb. If he was playing here he probably would not see the field.

 

[Devo182]

Wowww Indiana beats PSU with Michael Penix Jr on 2-pt OT scramble

And BJO gets a sack for LSU

 

[Rishvol]

We had the lead over GA at halftime. I can't believe where we are right now

That's why it's stupid to fahr Pruitt right now. We know what this team is capable of and we know how much better they will be when their confidence gets back. Unfortunately having 2 at the helm is not helping their confidence

 

[BruinVol]

#1 is an awful football player. His time at WR should be over and he better have been our kickoff returner for the last time

 

[Fun coupon VOL]

Defensively yes. Offensively the line did well, but at receiver and running back yes.

I agree the O-line except for cade played great. Everyone can say what they want about our running backs but they are soft.

This is what I was looking for.

27 is a bad ILB. I don’t care how thin we are LB he needs to move back to the outside. Whoever we put there can’t be worse

It’s crazy to me that after 20 years there are still some in this board that can’t see the writing on the wall.

Over the last 20 years, I’ve realized that there is more to life than spending the energy to bitch about our coach. I was in school when we won the title in 98. I don’t have influence over that decision. I watch almost all the games and enjoy those that I get.

 

[Orange Studs]

I've seen enough. He sucks

Everybody sucks to you. LOL What's new?

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

Oh look Micheal Penix is a stud

No he isnt. Look at his stats

 

[snowvols]

As frustrating as it is, it's too early to be "out" or whatever. Pruitt's second class are only sophomores. I'm frustrated, but not ready to be that negative.

Player development does seem to be a bit of a problem though. No one seems to be getting better.

You see someone like Crouch that Clemson really wanted and how poor he is here. Clemson never really misses on players so why can't they develop him. It's all over the field.

Yeah, I mean I'm frustrated with the defense, but I'm not surprised they put up a lot of points. They put up a ton against GA defense also.

The most concerning things to me are:

1. The attachment to JG
2. The continual movement of players to different positions where they either aren't as good, or they don't play.
3. The lack of creativity in offensive play calling

He refuses to tackle anybody. He’s the exact opposite of what you want at LB.

 

[engineerVOL]

Alright. Who we firing? Somebody’s gotta go.

I think Clemson would have played him at RB which is where he should be, imo.

I get enjoying games. But you enjoyed watching this ****show tonight?

Weinke is worthless

 

[Weezer]

I see everyone is in overreaction mode tonight. Pruitt may very well not be the answer, but losing to arguably the best team in the nation isn't the end of the world. 100% agree that it's time to move on from JG, but doubtful it happens. We're not going to fire Pruitt, and even if we did, we wouldn't hire any of the names people are screaming for. People need to stop being idiots. Screaming for his head isn't going to accomplish ****. You're not going to get your way. Right now, I'm just hoping Pruitt figures out how to attack the rest of the season.

 

[Smokeytom]

I don’t even want to go watch this team in Fayetteville in 2 weeks. I’m that down on them. Maybe in a week I’ll change my mind. But this is just too embarrassing. It ****ing sucks to be a UT fan these days. It’s tiring.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

And last week and the week before that

 

[mr.checkerboards]

So this quote kinda goes back to something I've been thinking. I see Pruitt as a guy who is big on seniority. I honestly feel like Pruitt would rather take his lumps with the upper classman in game and build depth that way then put in his freshman to get game experience. I don't know which is right or wrong but ive had that thought a few different times about him.

 

[drvenner]

Disappointed in the outcome. Understand some of the frustrations on here. Need to take the next two weeks and take a hard look at the Offensive philosophy and address the DL coaching issue. Find out if Coach Chaney is willing to adapt to modern football. Some fundamentals at the Safety position. Praying for Jaylen Waddle. Don't wish that on anyone. Praising God for another week of College Football. GO VOLS!

Thanks, Coach. You're one of the more reasonable posters on here.

Where the pumpers at?

I don’t know if I qualify...but I like being called out. So PRESENT! 🖐

Agree, they go down way easily. I mean how many times did Harris get 3 or 4 yards after he was hit behind the line.

ME! Count me as one!!
