After reading more, I've figured out what our problem is. We don't have actual boosters. We have rich guys who like to give opinions without giving money. We need to cut them off completely --just freeze them out-- since they're are utterly useless and put an advert out for real boosters. I hear small poor schools like Ole Miss can give us pointers on how to find real ones.

Boosters give a lot of money. Millions and you want to cut them off. It doesn’t all go to football.

Right - fans misunderstand the relationship.

No one booster ever comes in and writes a check to fire x coach or hire y coach.

Boosters provide steady yearly donations. Some of that money is used for coaching salary, but most of it is facility management.

If Butch wasn’t a total loser he could’ve had us at the consistent 9 win, every 3-5 years win the East level. His ‘system’ works better than Jeremy’s. The moment was simply too big for him, and his insecurities led to extreme incompetency.

Making Larry Scott OC and JG cost Butch his job. It seems JG is going to get another coach fired too. Have to find a QB in college. We have one but for some reason our coaching staff won’t give him reps or play him.

Thought bethrothing his goddaughter to Dormady was his capital offense? 🤔

If they really don't have the money (which lol I don't believe for a second) just beg Peyton for a loan. I'm sure he would help out his old stomping grounds if he felt confident in a return on his investment. This program is as good as dead if they let this Freeze opportunity slip them by. I just want to know that active conversations are happening about Freeze right now. Please.

It's a matter of priorities and goals, and letting that drive decision making.

Cause I agree. Money would not be the hold up if it was a priority.

I love your passion guys and it's exciting to think about CHF, but let's get real. The athletic department is in a deep financial hole, and just re-up'd Pruitt's contract. It isn't happening unless Pruitt left us first (a. why would he leave 12 mill on the table, b. where would he go next for similar pay?). I just don't want to see you guys get crushed with disappointment.

This same thought process has kept us in the basement of the SEC. I hear you and I agree, this inept university has shown no signs of confidence it actually wants to win. This would be a sign they want to win. When we are wining, 10-20 million dollars of buyouts and a new contract are peanuts to what will be rolling in. If we stay this course, they will lose 10x the turnover costs and will have a very hard time selling everyone on the next up and comer for the 5th time.

Scared money don't make money.

Will be classic tennessee, to not jump on freeze.

Talk to him , under the table. Ask him if he would be willing to coach here.. if he says yes, Pruitt should be gone... stars rarely align for coaches like this, and we better not miss our opportunity

As the saying goes on Wall Street, you don’t have to make it back the same way you lost it. Who cares if this stock drove us into the ground. It’s time to sell, reposition to coach freeze, and watch the wins start rolling in.

If fahred, Pruitt will get a $1.5 million salary to return as Coordinator either in NFL or at one of bigger schools. Big changes will happen at end of this year, book it. Iyam, due to state of everything he's earned another year. If things return to somewhat normal in 2021, and we dont ink a top ten or we have similar undisciplined, regressive football with absolute refusal to scheme and play highly players, then he's done. Absolutely.

What in the world is it that has made both coaches locked in on JG??? Is there a booster involved with JG, that had/has blackmailing info on both coaches that forces their hands to have to play him no matter what?? Maybe this is the nidus that has tipped both coaches over the edge to where they say “screw it...I’m out”.

And to add to this, we even played him with 7 screws in his hand last year! Now, I will admit that JG is tough as nails! Many QBs would have never tried to play with the shape his hand was in.

Don’t get me started!...I’m one of the few who thought “IF” given the opportunity Keller Chryst was and would have been far better than JG but we will never know.the situation is kinda similar to this one where we are being told “yea he’s getting reps” and come to find out he’s lying just to pacify the fan base and he’s getting away with it...it’s ********.instead of these fans playing the buddy buddy BS on volcalls,someone actually needs to question Pruitt and call him out On his own BS lies!
