    Jerod Mayo as Belichick's successor?

    The Pats roster is one of the worst in the league. That offense is bad everywhere. The defense is good, but how much of that is the coach vs the players. They need a long rebuild. The next coach will be following a legend who left behind an absolute dumpster fire of squad. I would avoid that job...

    What Other Message Boards Are Saying (Kentucky Edition)

    No way are the Vols going to overlook UK. They will more than likely be in the playoff if they beat UK. They will be heavily favored in the rest of their regular season games except against Georgia. If they beat UK and at least keep it close against Georgia, a 1 loss SEC team with a great...

    Heupel will figure out the QB position

    I think a big part of the issue here is that we had an obvious problem here for the last bunch of years, We all watched the man responsible for solving the problem pretend like it didn’t exist. I don’t think JH’s past performance leads me to believe he’ll do the same thing. If our QB position...

    Tennessee in trouble per Dan Patrick

    This is so obviously a smokescreen, no P5 school is scared of the NCAA anymore. They're just looking for a way to off load our current staff without having to pay them. Arizona still employs Sean Miller after he was caught red handed paying recruits, that happened years ago now. The NCAA still...

    Tennessee Preseason Camp Primer: Defensive line

    Long time Steeler fan here. The Steelers have been in a 3-4 for decades now. It relies on creating pressure, the less people involved in that pressure the better. If you can find some outside lbs that can get to the passer it’s damned near impossible. A big sturdy nose tackle who can clog the...

    Debord to Indiana as OC

    This is my take. We had an offense that had some worts but had a historically high scoring output. We had a defense that was equally extraordinary but only in the bad sense. I know this has been talked to death in other threads but this doesn't seem like a good thing to me.

    ESPN: DeBord doesnt watch much opponents film?

    I think it's both the staffs and Josh's fault. I think everyone gets a piece of blame for his lack of improvement. It's possible that he just can't do it, no amount of coaching may help. It's also possible that he's not getting the right coaching. It's probably both. It's hard to find fault...

    ESPN: DeBord doesnt watch much opponents film?

    In my mind this coaching staffs failures can mostly be linked to one failure. The failure to get any real improvements in Josh Dobbs as a passer. His inability to consistently make anything but short throws has made offense impossible agaiginst competent defenses. It turns out that the SEC has...

    DG's Completely Unscientific Game-by-Game Preview

    Think we'll know a lot more about our opponents in a few weeks based on their QB play. A lot of them have some serious questions at that all important position. As we saw with Florida last year, a good QB makes all the difference.

    Will The LV's Make The NCAA's?

    The bad part is that this needs to get worse before getting better. There's no way Holly is getting fired with a bunch of years left on her contract. It would be hard to justify financially. The reality of that means they're going to have to either extend Holly or let the current contract play...

    Is this treated like a transfer? Can he theoretically play right away?

    Article: Football Concepts - Shoop Part 2 Quarters Coverage

    To me the term 'Base Coverage' implies that we'll be in that scheme during non-situational plays. I would think 1st and 10 and 2nd and long type of plays where a run and a pass are pretty much equally likely. In obvious passing downs, I would assume we'd be out of our base coverage and into a...
