With a decent quarterback we are probably 7-3 this year maybe 8-2. The Georgia game was not out of question at all. We become one dimensional with JG and then way too many 3 and outs. No defense can withstand that.
This post is exactly right! You look at most ANY team having success or quick success (like Arkansas ) it starts with a good QB.
With so many great offensive players today, it is getting harder and harder for a defense to stop a great QB with good receivers.
Tenn has some good receivers, might need a little more at Tight End, but in general has fairly good players.
A great QB makes all the difference in the world. JG has never been and never will be a good or great QB.
Even without turnovers, I can see some of the receivers get frustrated with many of JG's passes.
You then add in all the fumbles and pick six plays, it just demoralizes the players. I think it is hard for
ANY player to give their most under these conditions. Now, add in a super stubborn head coach and guess what,
you have the state of current Tennessee football team! I understand we as fans don't see as much as the coaches see in practice,
but certainly we do see the games. I don't give a f... how well JG does in practice, because i can see him on Saturdays.
Now, we all love the heart of JG and I really feel bad for him. But it is time to move on! Pruitt of course is set on being the BOSS!
No one especially no fans are going to force his hand at starting a new QB. This latest firing the line coach makes me realize Pruitt is an ass.
I just hope we see Bailey going forward. Time to start working on next year's team because the season is already a huge failure.
