I’ve just got to say I have no interest in hiring Hugh Freeze because he will sell us down the road to save his own ass as soon as the NCAA comes calling.

I have no appetite for his hypocrisy even if the wins come with him.

I want a F’n mercenary who will win and not care who he offends. Having the nicest guy in the room hasn’t worked out. I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired of games like last night.

Hire Freeze. Recruit lights out. Score points. Beat Bama. Have fun.

Crompton saying Maurers granddad passed and he found out on Saturday. I’m sure his head was not right to play at all. Should have been Bailey. Another knock on Pruitt.

I dont get him tweeting at Tony Ballard though. All he tweeted was the offense is trash and Maurer is attacking him. Ballard didn't say anything about any players performance as far as I know.

If there was ever a time in history to hire a great offensive mind and not worry so much about defense... It's now.

If you want to see what the best defense money can buy coupled with a game managing offense can do, you can. It's called Georgia. They just got easily boat raced by the two best offenses in the league.

College football has evolved for sure. It’s driven by offense in today’s game. The best offense
beats the best defense. Offense now wins championships. LSU last season is a prime example.

I mean although the defense allowed 2 big plays they played well. Just for our offense to crap it all away because we allowed Brian Maurer to get 3+ series after playing like garbage in all of those series.

You go to HB right there and we probably win that game.

This team has talent. The Oline could be GREAT, the Dline shows flashes and the Offense has playmakers......but.

No player progression and if there is it’s a 1/4 of what it should be. No creative play calling, very very vanilla so it’s not hard to scheme defensively against us.

Absolutely no fire, rah rah or any emotions on the sideline. Not one player stepping up emotionally

Now, from what I know about UT football and most of y’all do as well....., Pruitt has another year minimum. They’ll chalk this year up to Covid and a few changes may be made during the off season but in my opinion, CP will be back at least one more year.

It’s hard watching the Vols, and has been hard for 10+ years now and that’s just unacceptable. I don’t know how you fix it, it’s like we are in quick sand and just get deeper and deeper. At some point you gotta go all in and spend big BUCKS on a PROVEN Coach. I’m talking about a TXam type of offer to a PROVE. head coach and give him complete control.

Just my opinion.

Why can’t we do it this offseason? Budget? PF? Administration?

Just for fair balance:

Checked D Brooks Twitter. He’s “liked” a few FL tweets in the last day or so. Jeremiah Williams tweeted him “it’s not too late 🐊” and he liked it.

Could mean diddly squat. Just sharing bc I was bored and looked.

Eh wouldn't surprise me. I expect that class to fall apart and that will be the end.

We have got to do this now. JP isn't going to work he's just not. Unless the athletic department is just broke ass busted, please make it stop. UT fans have been through enough....... The students don't even go to the games...they don't care anymore and damn that is sad.

One more thing about Hugh Freeze at the moment...While he didn't get to coach them at Ole Miss (except for maybe their Freshman years), you don't think that the coach who brought in both DK Metcalf and AJ Brown couldn't appeal to high level receiver prospects?

I won’t be worried about recruiting with Freeze. He’s good at that and UT is not difficult to recruit. You just have to be willing to put in more work and travel. What Freeze can do is coach and that’s something we have lacked for over a decade with Dooley, Butch, and now Pruitt. What this program has missed is a talent developer and a game planner.
