Anyone blaming Bailey for those 2 picks last night....please delete account.

1st pick - pass was in his chest but the defensive player got their way early and committed PI....but of course it wasn't called.

2nd pick - after Pruitts horrible time and game management .....and horrible play calling....what did you expect Bailey to do....he was trying to get a TD. It was actually a pretty good throw and the defensive made good play on the ball.

They’ll be on his stats without context. Both JG and Maurer have similar int’s with stories. It’s what he does after...does he get better with opportunities? Does he get opportunities? I liked how he moved down the field and was surprised by his nimbleness in the pocket, going into the game cold. Would have been impressed with a score. A FG would have been a boost on that first drive but...

We aren’t hiring Hugh Freeze or Urban Meyer or anybody else everybody wants. How do we not understand this yet?

I agree. As much as I wish it would be Freeze that isn't going to happen. We will settle for the Dollar General Store Coach where you get the outdated coach for rock bottom prices from po dunk U

Pruitt is exactly correct on Bailey. He kept throwing the check down which is exactly what Arkansas wanted.

it’s Comical how we have posters saying he looked poised when he was in fact playing dumb football. Now i am not saying his mistakes somehow mean he can’t be good but those decisions were far from poised. They were mistakes

you seriously amaze dude!...you do realize you’re criticizing a “true freshman” for throwing to his check down when the RB was the only player open..they had zero linebackers in the box.Arkansas was in prevent defense..how did you not see that?

Why don’t you criticize Pruitt for putting a true freshman in a situation down two scores in the 4th quarter with 4 minutes left basically forcing him to make something happen?...HB should have never been put in that situation.

JG is the only good game manager we have because he gets all first team reps.nobody else will blossom under command if they don’t get the reps.HB is getting S**t on not being given the chance to prove himself,sitting behind a lame duck of a QB who only has 900 yards total for the season through 6 games but those are Heisman numbers to you😂😂

Loved how he actually felt pressure and moved around the pocket. He doesn’t need to break off 12 yard scrambles. Just feel pressure and move around the pocket

What should be done eventually, must be done immediately.

We’ve all been down this road too many times unfortunately. Pruitt isn’t the guy and we all know it. Keeping him another year is just putting you that much further behind.

I am so tired of losing and being an embarrassing program. I just want to win. Freeze is the most realistic proven winner out there that would come here.

I don’t trust our admin to make a move or go for the guy because of his past though. It really sucks because we’re stuck in a perpetual cycle of suck. Wouldn’t it be nice to have an admin who cares about winning and makes decisive actions to win? Like Auburn or Florida.

Freeze will be beating our brains in at a conference foe sooner than later.

One negative and BM did it to, so it may just be what they're taught, but I would like to see our QB's throw it away when they get outside and not risk taking a hit on the sideline.

We absolutely cannot let Auburn or South Carolina grab Freeze before us.

I get what you’re saying but you realize firing Pruitt would also sink the recruiting class, right?

Winning three games will do that too. We have to stop caring so much about one recruiting class and care more about coaching. UT will always get recruits and we get the best when winning.

Asked if we have had one position group improve this year? Said it appears we have 5 coaches coaching no one and 4 coaches coaching one position. Very critical of the lack of offensive imagination (complimented Arky). “What you see on film/tape is how you are coaching” was the criticism of the coaching staff.
Basically confirms our discontent.

This team is so under coached and unmotivated "aight" I don't see them getting to three wins. We have all seen enough football to realize he isn't going to work. I wish someone over on the hill would rip the bandaid and get it over with. I hate to say it but its the truth.
