I don’t think I’ll cheer for the Vols anymore if they hire a guy that was just fired for not winning enough games. That’s just me tho.

Gus is known as an offensive genius much like Pruitt is a defensive genius.

Just for info, AUB ppg ranks last 6 seasons:

2020: 83rd
2019: 36th
2018: 61st
2017: 18th
2016: 53rd
2015: 63rd

Eh, each school brings different challenges, environments, and they play different schedules. When people ask why we would hire someone that didn't win enough at another school, you then revert back to someone like Rick Barnes. The other school felt they were stale, and maybe they made a poor choice to fire them in the long run. Barnes was perfect for UT basketball. I understand that UT basketball and football are different, but right now, we need stability and get football back on track before we talk championships. Just because a school fires a coach doesn't mean he is a bad fit somewhere else.
 
We lost to Georgia State last year coming off of a normal off season.

And finished with a six game win streak to include a solid bowl win over IN. I don’t deny JP has had some red flags, but I’ve also seen some things I really like. Enough that if it were me, I’d give him another year. But you all go ahead and clamor for retread Gus or emotionless Tee.
 
Freeze camp out there playing UT fans like a fiddle. The dude is not an option for any big time administration. He knows he is not getting pursued. So he continues to get his message out thru media connections that he is turning down all these other jobs waiting on UT 🤣🤣🤣 He is not nearly as great of a coach as UT fans want to think he is and is still toxic at the admin level. Every other major college knows it but our fanbase. His camp is playing the UT fanbase better than Mike Gundy's agent plays the UT admin.
 
Freeze isn’t getting offers from open schools. This “waiting for TN to open” is crap and you guys are falling for it. If Auburn won’t touch freeze, TN sure won’t. Let’s stop the freeze talk.
He’s already a VFL. I saw him at Alumni Hall picking out his new big orange tie and pullover

Sports-reference has 'em like this
2020: 86th
2019: 28th
2018: 48th
2017: 27th
2016: 49th
2015: 75th
2014: 27th
2013: 12th

Only 2 seasons in his tenure as HC at Auburn did they finish outside the top 50, and despite being 86th this season they still averaged 25.7ppg even facing an all SEC schedule. We've not done that since 2016 with Butch's last 9 win season.

Your numbers are even worse, let’s just use those
 
Pruitt was showing a lot of promise to close out last year before going off the rails this year. Chalk it up to CV and let’s see what happens next year with a normal offseason.

Dooley cared about his hair and pants, Butch was all about watches and nice suits, Pruitt just loves football. I want him to succeed here.
are we still blaming Covid for his terrible coaching this year?
