Then they have failed. If you can't do that in three years you aren't successfully living up to your responsibilities and expectations. Time to move on and get someone that can deliver.

I have liked you as a poster especially non football stuff but I hope you are ok because you seem to post the most negative takes. When you have a year you only have 4 recruits on the roster who would be juniors and you lose half of your starters on your side of the ball, what the heck are you suppose to do. This D was looking great till the end of the year. Moving on to get someone who can deliver is what we have been doing the last 15 years. I will wait till we have two more full classes from these guys before judging really where we are at. DC's are still not happy being on the other side of CJH's offense so those that can deliver for sure are not looking to come here to tarnish the reputation. It is CJH's show to run until the AD sees a reason to change and 8-4 this year with what this staff walked into is not it. That is on both sides of the ball.

Agreed, but in three years you've failed to get and or field the players needed to run the defense you want to run. That's a problem.

They have really had the 22 class and 23 class and the one coming in has not even signed yet. Not to mention we still are not allowed to have a full roster. 11 juniors on the roster last year and 30 not so great seniors who they did not recruit for the most part. Our average player rating in this class is the highest it has been in over 10 years but you guys keep spouting how bad it is. If you expected us to have a top 5 class, you were always going to be disappointed.

Legion of the Miserables as Coach Majors used to say. Can’t reason with them and can’t please them.

No, but should we address deficiencies or keep doing the same thing and hope it fixes itself?

Again, like one guy said, have two 5 stars a great OL class and the highest average rating per player in years, how is that the same. Dang, are you ok outside of football? We just won more games in the last three years and SEC games as well than in forever but keep feeling crappy about it.

Steve Sarkisian with an absolutely inexplicable decision there. 4th and 5 with 2 timeouts left trying to draw OSU offsides and you DON’T use a timeout??? You just take the delay of game, make the field goal 5 yards longer, and miss….

Blatant missed call on delay of game by defense there too. The refs gave them 22 seconds to sub a defensive player.

But ya inexplicable not to take a timeout

I don't know what is going on behind closed doors. I can only show up on GameDay and scream my head off. If they aren't fixing things then eventually a change will be made but I don't think it should even be entertained as conversation for at 2 or 3 more years. We have been and continue to be hamstrung by Jurmee's shenanigans.

As ive stated ad nauseaum, I recall on a personal level. Sitting in those seats, with no kids freezing my ass off, watching us not compete, with Vanderbilt. Let that sink in. We didnt even have a chance to beat Bama. And then we did!

We wouldve beaten Florida in the swamp had we any competent receivers. We need upgrades there and in DL and secondary.

For the first time in years I feel confident in laying for myself. and or taking my children to watch football. what its all about.

Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway says Haslams offered bribes to inflate Pilot truck stops earnings

Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway says the billionaire Haslam family tried to bribe at least 15 executives at the Pilot truck stop chain with millions of dollars to get them to inflate the company’s profits this year because that would force Berkshire to pay more for the Haslams’ remaining 20%...

Coach should’ve known how to deal with fans discontented with mediocrity as that was why he was finally booted. He knew all about mediocrity at UT.

You would put Florida State in the playoffs. Awesome, I would not.

I’m just saying that those are the 4 best *teams in the country IMO. And no, regular season and conference ‘ships do not matter as much as you hope it would with the way things are going. I think Oregon is really good.

*teams that aren’t caught up in an elaborate sign-stealing scandal.

Alabama -vs- Oregon
Georgia -vs- Washington

Alabama getting in over Texas would be inexcusable. A 1 loss non conference champ getting in over a 13-0 P5 team would also be inexcusable, Regardless if their QB is hurt

Let’s just let the committee pick 4 teams in the preseason to play for the national title since what happens on the field doesn’t matter

I thought that has been tried for last 20+ years, Didn’t it work then?

It absolutely did. It worked in destroying our program but some of these posters think every recruit wants to come to UT, there is no competition, and it must be something coaches are doing to not bring them here.
Why would you come to a dumpster fire every 3-4 years if only to throw gasoline on it? No recruit wants to come play for 2-3 different coaches or multiple position coaches. It's a recipe for mediocrity
