i think it's very telling that one of the main themes this week in discussing this game is that we have to "show a pulse". "play with passion/want to" etc....basically where is our give a ish setting right now?

i think i've heard that more than anything else in regards to this game.

beat vandy and act like you give a _____ against FL. that's where we are.

Buddy couldn't catch the Rona this year. He had good hands on his high school tapes. Wonder what happened..

On Twitter he’s regularly tweeting about some sort of investment thing or whatever. I wonder if his focus just isn’t on football? 🤷‍♂️





I really really hope he’s just opting out and has plans to return. Kid definitely has talent.

Is there any way to see how many snaps or even games some of our freshman have played in?

Mostly curious about Wideman. Only reception I know he has is from HB late vs Kentucky. But I remember him in the game a number of other weeks - just was never looked at. Kinda curious the snap count of some kids like him and Eason and others.

If I were a betting man, which I’m not, I’d be willing to say he’s not even looking in Hugh’s direction. I’ve read too much about the disdain they have for one another.

Fulmer is way too smart. I’m betting he’s already talked to several candidates and has a plan. He’s not cool with what he’s seeing right now, no way

It’s been discussed since KY. Got more steam the last 2 weeks. Doubt has spread to the higher ups.

Things could get interesting real quick. He’s got people in his corner but also has people doubting the direction of the program

What a disaster this football program is. Every time you turn around it’s another depressing story. Maybe I’m wrong but it seems like players have checked out. Any positive news for this program would be welcome at this point.

Let this sink in. Let’s say Pruitt goes 1-2 the rest of this season. Pruitt would basically have to go 8-4 in 2021 and then 9-3 in 2022 to get to 34 wins that would equal Butch Jones win total at UT. Is it doable? Maybe. Who thinks that’s going to happen?

Not really apples to apples considering this is a 10 game all SEC season. Not saying JP is a great coach, but it’s a fact when comparing seasons. Butch went 0-8 in SEC his last year and still got 4 wins.

A lot of these kids are getting sucked into a Forex pyramid scheme. I’ve seen it around the country.

Yep, been saying it.

Watch what happens when the big boys sitting in the boxes on Saturday see Florida hang 50 on us in Neyland and our shiny new QB gets knocked around.

I was telling RiotVol, he's used to catching HB's "lame ducks" and not JG's rocket fueled bullets.

Most of the people who have gotten to the position of influential decision makers at the University probably didn’t get there by making irrational, knee-jerk, heat of the moment decisions.

In the famous words of Fred Thompson in Hunt for Red October....”The Russians don’t take a dump without a plan.”

i don't think anyone is advocating for a knee jerk reactionary decision.

i think it's more along the lines of nobody, er, a lot of folks, have zero faith that whatever plan they have, probably isn't worth the dump......the track record there is less than glowing.

and that's one of my favorite movies, and it's a great line......
