I've said it for weeks, I want to see a full game without Jarrett Guarantano. I'm positive the offense will look better, the defense will play harder, and we'll see some fire out of Pruitt again. If I'm wrong and we still look hopeless then JP needs to be gone this year. Tomorrow is the most important game of his head coaching career, we'll see if he really wants to be at UT or not.

I want to see them do this:
Maxim 7: "Carry the fight to Florida and keep it there for 60 minutes".

We've not finished games because you know who makes mistakes every game.

Hire Cut, bring in Jason Witten as "OC". Let Witten learn under Cut and Fulmer. I'm fairly confident Witten wants to be the HC here in the future. Let him be under Cut for a few years then hand him the reigns.

If Wit could be a solid HC, that would be our best case scenario. VFL with HUGE name recognition. Would prefer a scenario like this to just handing him the head job with no coaching experience.

What’s this fascination with fast tracking Witten? They did it with MNF and some even attempted to promote him for HC. If he goes the coaching route, he needs to start at the bottom and work his way up...tried and true method.

It’s working well for Wisconsin hiring school alums. He would be the perfect hire for what we are dealing with right now.

We'd be extremely fortunate if Fulmer ended up being to Tennessee was Alvarez has been to Wisconsin as an AD. Wisconsin ran through coaches like mad there for a while and it's like it didn't matter.

The freshman HAS played. In his first 3 passing attempts, he hit three different players, then scored a TD.

I dont care if he scores rest of the year. Just having on field presence and knowing when to throw ball away, not just ducking and taking a sack. All in.

We have potential to beat the gators
Run the ball straight up between the tackles like we did against aubby
Anyone else but JG was QB we win against aubby, UK, and arky
We won’t beat Florida I don’t think but we can keep it from being a beat down
Don’t ever give up on the Vols regardless of who’s the coach
I’m pissed but **** it, I still bleed orange

That is why you bring him in under Cut. Let him learn. I live in Dallas and can guarantee if Wit wants to be on the Cowboys staff next year, Jerry will make it happen. From things I've heard in the Dallas media, Wit is interested in coaching after he is done playing.

NFL teams have about a hundred jobs around the field...no limits like in college.

The Freshman has needed to start and play the whole game, not come in when the game was decided.

We're winning tomorrow because of the freshman.

HB fixing to save Pruitt

Hammy was cheap. Hart was cheap. Cheek was cheap. That's why some say UT is cheap, even now, when every single decision maker is different, top-down. This admin has given the program and coaches everything requested, but fans still say UT admin is "stupid," "cheap" and "incompetent." Randy Boyd is far from stupid, he certainly isn't cheap and no one who knows him or has worked with him calls him incompetent.

I'm guessing its some sort of power struggle/lack of control within the boosters or program is the reason we can't hook a good HC? Or it could have been the cluster F of a situation that lead to Fulmer taking over and ending up settling for Pruitt? I believe that last search really hurt us.

If ut isn't afraid to throw money , then its either problems within the program, or UT might just be a less desirable job than we think and we need to get used to it, or until saban retires.

It was in limited time and defense and what not, but the fact he completed 3 passes to Warren and 3 to Fant...you know the TE’s? Basically doubled their season output in a quarter! Hit open guys in the middle of the field. Was this some wacky offensive package Chaney unleashed? Was DWA really a bust or would have hitting him in the hands IN STRIDE been a wise strategy?

The UT-Vandy game is all but cancelled. Sankey has moved it twice and doesn't even have it permanently on the schedule.

Which is honestly horse crap because the excuse was “it’s to get everyone 10 games” I still think we dodged Vandy on purpose.
