Can we take vitellos salary and use that to get some real football coaches

 

[GhostVol]

Team reflects the coach.

On that side of the ball

I don't have a problem with Heupel's offense, I just want a defense that can stop someone once in while

 

[ScreamingEagleVol]

Mcelroy is such a cuck... he worships the bama c0@k. He makes me sick.... as does our defense

You should probably hop off of AD Danny White and Heupels and get a reality check

 

[orangerush]

D has given up 21 points and got a turnover. I think this game is more on the offense. They have 13 points.

Back out the 12 they gave away and our offense net 1 point.

 

[njvols]

We just can’t make the mistakes we’ve made and expect to win. Not a horrible effort but not ready to win. Have to make plays….bad passes, dropped passes, not getting to qb, etc etc

 

[BJWeeks]

What's aggravating is bama is not that good. Our offense can't catch and just make stupid decisions

 

[Other_Guy]

Another thing I wonder, why they call those screens and lateral throws to wr behind the line of scrimmage? Never have I seen it do any positive.

Right now Heupel doesnt trust banged up Joey over the middle.

 

[PalmettoStateVol]

Bama has touchdown drives of 91 and 99 yards. That’s inexcusable at this level. If Heupel doesn’t get this sh*t cleaned up, he’ll never win anything of consequence here. This offseason will show if he had the guts to do what needs to.

You've already seen Heupel's peak. Last year was the best you can expect from him. He'll never win an SEC Championship here. He may be good enough to sneak into the 12 team playoff once every 3 or 4 years, but that's about it. He's good, but not great.

Drop, drop drop

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Danny I hope your watching and planning your next move

He’s not. Rumor is that he diverted some baseball NIL to the lady Vols basketball program. Meanwhile collecting “talent fees” from the fans. You can’t take away from a championship program and top tier coach to give to an unproven coach. He is protecting his hire imo. As long as we fill the seats, I don’t think he cares. Just my opinion.

 

[EastTNVol6240]

congrats on being pretenders. we would get raked over the coals in the CFP

Again…..

 

[PerryCountyVol]

Heupel is fine, he just needs to upgrade the defensive staff like we all have been saying for the past 3 yrs

 

[ptcarter]

Networks really need to keep alumni homers from being announcers. I have posted this before and hear "he really calls the game equally". Maybe, but you know deep down, McElroy was almost wetting his pants on that pick 6. Maybe he's good at hiding it, but still...

 

[VOLifornia]

Josh may need to run tackle drills all week next week and teach them how to wrap up.

What’s this “wrap up” you speak of???

 

[GVF]

This ain’t last years Deboer. He’s got his OC back now that he had with Penix that tried a year in the NFL last year.

 

[posivol]

wow big drops

 

[Go47]

Heup was the right coach at the right time. Nothing more, nothing less.

Correct.

Can we get a better one? Nope!

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

These coaches and players are paid entirely too much for this level of performance.

 

[KeyVol14]

Catch the damn ball!!!

 

[tnvols72]

had the RB wide open with nobody around him

 

[GhostVol]

Can we take vitellos salary and use that to get some real football coaches

Can we get Vitello's attitude on defense?

 

[Jimmyandjoes]

They aren’t wrapping up.

They are not. To many throwing shoulders all year.
They aren't coached that way, to leave their get, stop driving legs.
Dropped passes and missed recommend are on players. Not coaches

 

[Volswin98]

Can’t tackle or catch

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

How do y'all Banks lovers like that 99 yd touchdown drive????

Don’t forget to pair it with the 91 yard.

 

[jcvol87]

I said 9-3 or 8-4. But I didn't mean it

Same but looking more like 7-5
