....But especially those who have been bashing Dooley,Bray,Sal,Chaney or any other Vol Player or coach.

That's just a nice way of me saying Z. Rogers sucks because he does.

He makes two bad plays for every positive one.

Zach is killing us. Not even the ref saw him as a threat to catch a deep ball.

Zach Rodgers = Deer in the headlights

I can do better. ZR sucks.

Looking forward to the day when slow white kids named Austin or Zach are no longer dropping passes in orange.

Because he plays like he looks, soft. He drops most passes.

Expecting anything different than dropped passes from Zach Rogers is a coaching error. That is all.

As good as Z Rogers is at knocking balls down wonder if he could play CB?

Sorry, Z. Rogers is too busy dropping his next pass to care what you all think.

dooley PLEASE put arnett in!!!! at least he doesnt drop everything thrown his way.

This!! ZRogers is terrible!!

Why is Zach Rogers even playing ?

Why do we keep throwing to him? He's sucks!!!!!!!!!

Has Zach Rogers held on to a ball all season?

He is one of the worst receivers I've ever seen Tennessee put on the field.

NO ONE Knows the future! And sometimes it's amazing what a difference a year can make! For most its SO to JR for others it JR to SR. While not trying to make excuse's for any coaches or players as there's clearly some issues all around. These post came from 2 threads last Oct. There where many more threads bashing ZR all yr. If alot of these VOLnation posters had there way ZR would have never seen the field again. And look what he's done. Last weeks toe tapping TD was unbelievable!

The Point.... We as Vols fans lots of times overreact to things we don't really know about. I was one in the camp last year that wished anyone besides ZR would play Wr. This year he's proved us all wrong. Any of our players or coaches could make that step next season. Imagine if Bray improves his ability to read defenses and lead a team as much as Rogers has improved his ability to catch the ball. The sky would be the limit

Could Dooley and Chaney make that step. Some have said there's no progress , But I don't recall any 4th quarters the first two seasons where we were driving to win or tie against the best. This year we've had a chance to win every game except buck fama. Since the UGA game we've rushed better than we have in a long while, and each week the offense. looks more and more like our good old days. With rushing and passing. then the short passing last week. More short passes and TE and we're there. Again not making excuses here( Cause I say if we can get Gruden DO IT) But it's possible this is chaney's first season using the whole play book or doing whatever he thinks is best. Not being limited by a FR or SO O line,Wr,Rb,and QB, And still learning what's best to do in SEC.

And it's possible for a new head coach to make some questionable (dumba$$ed) calls. Or his players to make some bad mistakes for a few years and then succeed. says............ Les miles and LSU

I'm not saying I think all this will happen. But I'm saying any of it could.AS ZACH ROGERS PROVED THIS YR And we as fans don't really know!

So be carefull who your bashing today. Cause tomorrow they may make you look like a fool.

Hell... Maybe next year Palardy can pull a Zach Rogers:):loco:....GBO,VFL

Hey OP....

Your post makes way to much sense. Just like thread #2.. obviously nothing matters to that kind of a fan unless its a W...

Sadly for most VOL fans W's and L's are all that matters.

Never-mind these are 18-23 year old young men.

Never-Mind that the development of these young men is truly what matters most.

Never-mind that these young men are future leaders.

To a lot of VN trolls ... None of this Matters... ONLY W's matter.

Anything less and the kid or the coach is subject to massive amounts of TRASHING... Just like ZR last year...

If the ONLY reason you are a VOL fan is for W's then you are in the wrong sports arena..

Go be an NFL fan.

College athletics is about so much more than W's and L's...

I never understood why people bagged on ZR. He was solid imo. I think it was trendy to not like Rogers and now those poeple look like tards. Funny if you ask me.

That's a nice fantasy land you're living in there.

BTW, your post reminds me of a political ad that shamelessly plays the "for the sake of the children" card.

I understand what you are saying and it is more than just W and L's. However, it is not football from even 25 years ago. It is a big money business. I like being able to see so many great games on TV. However, I miss the days of what used to be. The W and L's now drive the machine that will create or not create the dough.

I hate we have went down this path where even for alot of players, it has nothing to do with getting your degree for free while playing a great game. We hear the "hey, it is who can best prepare me for THE LEAGUE", kind of stuff.

Therefore, if you don't get the players who can play, (we all know great players can make bad coaches look good), and it is hard to do without winning, putting people in the NFL, and selling the brand of your program. You get L's. This causes an issue since it is now a business.

Vince Dooley almost got fired at Georgia before he started winning. It took several years for him. No coach would be given that kind of time now. He later become a legend coach for UGA. I am not saying CDD is just like his dad, and we should give him time. It is just a perfect example of how the landscape of college football has changed. Coaches do not get that time anymore because MONEY is at stake. Coaches get paid way more than they used to because it is a business and production (money) which comes from W's is expected.

The days of a few decades ago are gone. You have to win and do it now and keep on winning. It used to be easier for top teams who could hoard the talent because of no scolly limits.

The issue I have with CDD is that I don't see him controlling and managing this team. Despite today's news the team has been free of real trouble outside of two instances. But the lack of on field discipline and players knowing when to be on the field for punting, FG or whatever units boarders on absurb. Game adjustments have been good at half but where is the game prep to start out which is good coaching. This makes me think he can not produce as expected now at the level to make the product produce the MONEY that is big time college football business.

This is why he has to go. I don't see him capable of getting us there as he learns on the job unless he gets seven years. This day and age you just don't get that much time.

Sorry, but you're full of crap. If that were the case then people would watch teams like Vanderbilt.

Oh wait, they don't, everyone watches Oregon and Alabama because guess what? They win. College athletics is only about two things, winning and money. The former helps gather the other.

He knows this. Some on here know the facts,see the facts but are so miserable in life they would argue and deny the fact that W's are very important to these kids and fans.

News flash ..... Most players in college athletics do not go pro in the NFL... Gasp...shock....awe... So guess what.

It's about the degree.

Full of crap, what a joke.

Apparently you don't get it.

Yes wins are important but ultimately for a College Student it's about the degree and developing the young men.

Sheesh.....you folks make it too easy.
