Beasley & Clowney both being **** FA pickups too.

Simmons has been a solid Casey replacement, no one was able to replace Orakpo though.

Landry sucks. Simmons has been hurt not having Casey imo. Need to figure out right tackle as well. Kelly is not the answer and who knows if Lewan will be the same when he come back

Got a discussion question for all. Now I am not calling anyone out but there has been some who have said in our conversations about Napier and Chadwell that they are good coaches but not ready for the SEC. So here is my question, who is ever ready to coach in the SEC? If Auburn thinks a coach from Boise State is good enough to coach in the SEC why wouldn't Napier? What makes a Coach ready? What is the standard or what does he have to accomplish to be SEC ready? Take Napier, he accomplished at LA what has never been done. Again, just a conversation topic here cause I know how things have been heated up in here LOL Now give me some good stuff.

In the last few years I have come to believe it is just a total roll of the dice. Absolutely no one is a sure thing, all that can be done is to do the best due diligence you can, go after the guy you want, give him all the resources and support you can...and then just hope for the best.

Silver lining if Pruitt stays (there aren’t many):

Seems like Freeze is staying at Liberty which means he’ll likely be coming off another 8-10 win season when our search begins next year. Another year of him proving himself for those that need to see that.

And will be seriously butt hurt we didn’t hire him so he goes to Kentucky and beats the hell out of us every year

They shouldn’t have gave RT 25-30 million or whatever absurd amount it was. The team is built around Henry, to make that style work you have to have good defense. It blew up the defensive side of the ball to do it.

Just like UT with Pruitt, given some ridiculous extension when he wasn’t going anywhere. If some other team was willing to pay that, should have let him walk.

I'm shocked. Went into this game down 28.8 points. I had Adams vs Henry. Down 0.9 points. I have Josh Allen tomorrow vs the Bills D for the finale

Yes. Look at how Volnation salivated over Chip Kelly and Scott Frost last time. Everyone thought Fuente would be a homerun at VT. Conversely everyone chuckled when UNC hired Mack Brown and AZ St hired Herm Edwards. You just don't know.

Nah...... they actually got RT on a really good deal...... the league is a passing league now....Henry is amazing but without a QB like RT the titans wouldn’t be going anywhere
