We literally just saw players moving in.

We didn't see every player moving in. We only have a handful of players that could transfer to another team and actually make an impact. If those guys aren't among the returning, then how good a job has actually been done?

If anything, he'll be more pissed at more people than before. People like that, in these situations, don't flourish and grow. They bunker down, entrench themselves, and become even worse.

Definitely worst case scenario...

I also heard Butch Jones dropped the humble guy act as soon as he was hired by Arkansas State and started treating people at Alabama like dirt .

They let him hang out for the NC game so he couldn't have been treating people too badly. What did he do, refuse to get someone's coffee?

You may not want to claim your daughter has an obsession for balls. Just saying, that's a loaded statement.

I disagree. Ansley had never been a DC before. Steele is a veteran DC. I don't think it's the same. I don't see Pruitt micromanaging Steele. Also, VQ has repeatedly said that Pruitt hasn't micromanaged Chaney, so I'm not sure the micromanaging reputation is legit. It may be, but I don't know.

As for the culture, Im not talking about addition by subtraction. I'm talking about these young players, these covid freshmen taking a bigger role, Bailey, Key, and some of these guys who didn't play much last year. Salter coming in also is bringing some juice. Then you have Hooker. That's new leadership on the team. Also, if you go back to 2019, the culture was in great shape. Maybe it was Jennings, Bituli and the boys, I don't know. But this is a team that didn't quit after the awful start and a team that had a chance to beat Bama. If JG doesn't go rogue they may have won the game. Even the OL was pushing Bama's DL down the field last year. I don't know where that went, but if he can get it back, he can turn things around. At least in some ways idk.

VQ is full of s***. AP will say anything for Pruitt. Pruitt 100% played JG over other coaches wishes and this offense is what Pruitt wants to run. This is directly from an offensive coach on our staff. Period. Tired of hearing any site saying it isn’t true.

I don't hate Pruitt, I just have zero confidence in him being able to turn this around. I'm not even angry at him anymore. For me, it's like the JG situation. When JG made mistakes, I was angry at him in the moment, but I was more angry at Pruitt for continuing to put him out there. I was angry at Pruitt during the season when we kept losing, but now that the season is over, I'm angry at Fulmer and Boyd and Plowman for continuing to put Pruitt out there. Pruitt is what he is. It's up to his superiors to recognize that and make a change for the better, but they're not going to do that. I can't be mad at Pruitt for their failure.

You mean Fortunately, don’t you?
I mean if you really want to figure out why we’ve sucked for 20 years, you might wanna look at that message that , blind support of anyone associated with UT get, no matter how many games we lose, is sending to those calling the shots.
Full stadium, Full support = they approve of what we’re doing

The most interesting thing about our football program is hoping our coach gets fired. I
Hope the stadium is allowed full capacity this fall and it still looks like covid.

Had a cat once. His name was Patches, but I called him.... Cat.. Cat was a wild cat. He lived in the woods around my house, terrorizing, torturing and killing all manner of small mammals. He was, however, good friends with the raccoons (Cat was not stupid). He came inside about once a day to say hello and share his dog sister's food.

He disappeared when he was about 13 yrs old, and we thought he was dead. Cat showed back up after months, looking absolutley stunning. He was brushed and beautiful like a brand new Cat. Only thing we could figure is someone Catnapped him and tried to "domesticate" him.. He must've lived very high on the hog for a time until he finally said "f*** this, I'm going back home where I can do what I want, when I want and eat all the dog food I want."

Cat lived to the ripe old age of 18, still out battling, hunting and having fun, until he met his maker at the hands of a car...

This is a true story and he was an awesome cat..
