Let me keep hope that Fulmer loves this university more than his personal feelings

i think a man who has given what he has, cares. he also realizes that without the two wins at alabubba, freeze was very pedestrian... and had to cheat to get there

Before this season i would wear UT gear every Saturday. Ive not wore any UT gear in 3 weeks and it feels good.
No more of those conversations at the stores with other fans. Quite honestly I feel like I'm seeing less UT gear while I'm out in town.

That’s because we’re a laughingstock

I still don’t get the Sark love. He was average at Washington and is close to a 50% head coaching record overall. I think Bama assistants look so much better playing with five stars. Also, Saban being the GOAT.

I believe we have to allow coaches to grow and change from one place to the other. It’s nice if someone just keeps winning over and over and over but sometimes coaches have to be humbled either through adversity or trial and error. (Carrol, Saban at Miami, bellichich (sp) in Cleveland, etc... if you can visibly see how they’ve changed their coaching philosophy or gotten help for personal problems or something then you can take a shot on them. I’d much rather have a coach that’s been through some crap than one who hasn’t. That’s why I’d take Kiffin back in a heartbeat. He’s not the same coach now as he was when he left us.

Glad he finally did something in garbage time.... the times Bailey was sacked he had like .01 secs before they got to him. Allowing blitzes straight up the middle is absolutely in excusable I don’t care who is having to play at Center.....

And, the thing is, you know Grantham is going to dial up a ton of blitzes and it looks like we were totally unprepared for them.

Talked QB’s. Both should play next game. Liked what they watched from HB, surprised JT has not had more chances. Compared his arm strength to Bray.
Talked Receivers. Surprised Velus has not been targeted more. Surprised young guys did not get into rotation especially in 4th and it will effect their mind set heading into offseason.
DB’s too many breakdowns but it’s “always the perfect play call”... No pass rush. Immaculate pocket for Trask last night. Missed Kivon. Doesn’t always get there but gets there enough.
Should be Vandy by double digits.
Better chance against A&M with less big time playmakers but they can run the ball.
Florida has no chance against Bama with no run game....

So for us newer guys on the board, when Butch was fired, were there rumblings beforehand? Or did it just happen?

Lots of screaming, quite a bit of smoke, but it was John Currie, so he was waiting until the end of the season so he could get Greg Schiano.

I know the game sucked, but how was the overall experience for you? When you get back from OSUT, try to catch a game this Fall, when the atmosphere will be like no place anywhere else (unless Pruitt is still our coach, LOL)

It was great. I think it was a good time to go, not being so crowded and all. Walking to the seats and seeing the field for the first time with the players warming up was surreal.

I was disappointed that no one was singing Rocky Top at any point during the game.

Next year I’ll get to hopefully experience the full atmosphere and I’ll know what to do and where to go.

HB is a freshman . The game has not slowed down for him. He does have a weird release. Didn't stare down receivers and actually went to his 4th option for a nice gain.

Shrout has a big arm. Probably the only QB on the team that can make that 40 yd throw for a 5yd gain (A play I would argue has the most potential for a pick six . Throw it out.).

Neither were helped by the play calling of "THE HIGHEST PAID OC". Run run pass.

Both were upgrades over JG. Both looked better under pressure and both scrambled rather than throw a pick.

Both would be miles ahead if they would have had opportunities in practice and games.

Screw Pruitt. His staff is incompetent (Jay Graham and Tee Martin excluded).


Fire him today so he can go be a coordinator. He is unfit to be a head coach. Both in demeanor and X's & O's.
