For all of our bashing of the coaches, guys got to make plays. Debo has called a good game and oline has executed. Players gotta make plays to win.

So shotgun formation 4 times on the goal line is good play calling? You're out of your mind.

Players can't catch the ball. Can't defend the pass.

Choke job by the players. They have been in position to score or make big plays and haven't done it.

Dobbs isn't necessarily helping the case either.

Oh, well...

No. Blame the guy who BUILT and DEVELOPED what's on the field. If he's coaching with inherited players then MAYBE you can make that argument. But it is HIS team and HIS alone. It is HIS offensive system.

Most importantly, it is HIM that is tight as a bow string which has translated DIRECTLY to the players.

You can't blame the coach for dropped passes, personal fouls, and poor effort no matter how badly you want to blame him.

This is dead on correct and the sooner the AD figures that out and bring in an SEC staff, the better off we'll be.

That doesn't excuse our defense giving 200 yards in a half to a Purdue washout.

And from experience as a coach at the high school level, effort can be blamed on the coaches. Come on, now.

I guess I'm watching some alternative universe game. What I'm seeing is poor execution due to piss poor coaching. I think CBJ could be an excellent coach but only after he realizes his strengths and weaknesses and addresses those weaknesses by making the proper adjustments. I'm talking game time and staff. I truly believe he will be the head coach for the foreseeable future, I just hope he makes the needed adjustments to the OC, Oline and WR coaching positions and show that he and his friendships are not above the University.

The offense is too predictable. Even Verne, "the toad" called the play when Dobbs went under center. That's embarrassing.

I don't understand why people can't grasp this. There's a reason he didn't hire a Mike Sanford, Lincoln Riley, or Doug Meachem. He wanted one of his guys that wouldn't screw with his offense.

Catch. The. Ball.

Maybe blame the pee wee coaches in Georgia, Ohio, and middle Tennessee thay didnt teach kids to look the ball in.

Simple catches and its 21-17 our ball.

Op,just stop. If you have that many on the field not doing their job, then the problem is obvious.

After 4 years and seeing players change, all the failures are the same: dropped passes, inaccurate passes and inadequate online play. The only common factor is the coaches still on staff for the last 4 years.

Coaches prepare the team physically, mentally, and with an effective gameplan. They are the true CEO of the team...the buck stops there.

Why blame the young men who sweat and bleed for UT, rather than the overpaid incompetents that those young men rely on for leadership and instruction?
