Clay Travis actually had a great idea.

[FORDMAN]

Ahh perfect, then Pruitt is as stupid as I thought he was. So let me get this straight.

Rookie HC
Rookie OC
And a DC who was a DC for one year at South Freaking Alabama.

Nice. Real dominate staff there. Keep riding that jock boys.

Are you as dumb as you appear to be? I suppose you would rather take someone’s rejects, because an established coach at a top program would not leave for the same position. THINK BEFORE YOU POST!

 

[Red Forman]

BTW you mispelled "booster".

I didn't know buying a beer koozie and a ball cap at Walmart made someone a "booster".

Hey we had a rookie OC this year and that worked pretty we...never mind.

 

[Tnmitch]

That would be cool

 

[vol445]

Doubt it would happen. Pruitt said he wanted coaches who wanted to be here period

 

[14VolFan88]

Kevin Steele would come home to be DC. No doubt. Established coaches leave places every year and make lateral moves.

 

[14VolFan88]

Everyone is a rookie at some point. What do you want?
Do you have any faith at all...

No, I believe faith is for the stupid and weak. I will let JP and his assistants be judged by their own merits, but this bandwagon crap is ridiculous. I was raised with the values that trust and respect is earned and not given, I guess people in East Tennessee have forgotten that. Same ball washing that Butch got.

 

[wtorange]

Coach Freeze is an OC whiz...no denying that...just don't believe he would fit in here...not with everything Ole Miss had to go through and Coach's Freeze's complicity/non-complicity...also believe he caught quite a break from the NCAA...definitely think he'll get another chance somewhere...just not here...and

GO VOLS!

Coach Pruitt and some of the guys he brought in like to go as close to the line as possible and not get into to trouble although Rocker has had some past issues. We don't need another guy to cause the NCAA to look at us. I expect us to get back into the big boy game of recruiting and that means taking some chances.

 

[BGKYVol]

Example: Butch Jones

Butch Jones never approached the type of success that WKU had during Helton's tenure at the school.
Winning 7-8 games is not the same as winning 10+.
And I don't believe Cincy was ever in the top 5 in the nation in offense and in particular passing offense.

Apples to Oranges

Trust is earned. Treating people with respect should be mandatory until they give you a reason not to respect them.
Disparaging someone's ability without cause or facts I hope is not a trait of people from East Tennessee. I know that my wife and in-laws (Oak Ridge) do not share that trait.

 

[NoogaHog]

This thread title is an oxymoron of sorts.
Clay loves free speech and boobs. He hasn't time for great ideas.

Did I say he was going to suck? No. Did I say there is absolutely zero chance he will ever win here? No. I said he has to earn my support. I said I will judge him by his own merits. So far his hires are unimpressive.

 

[EweTVol]

Make the Schiano fuss then hire the hooker guy... sounds legit

 

[tango]

laughable...

so.... clay travis wants to gripe about Schiano being the guy who allegedly told the guy who told McQueary about Sandusky... and how Tennessee doesn't need that kind of stigma attached to the program..

but he's totally cool with Hugh Freeze who uses his school-provided cell phone to arrange for some half and half with hookers?

SMFH.

NOBODY from the media would even begin to throw a 15 yd penalty flag for Hypocrisy on that one, Clay.

Jesus....

 

[jjnealfl]

In breaking news, we all are holding our breath waiting for your support. I'm sure it will be worth the wait. Keep speaking your mind, the silence is deafening.

I'd say there is a bit of a difference between what Schiano did and Freeze.

Then the CJP ball washing club and quit with the "get on board" crap.

 

[photovol]

I'm not on board. All this talk of a dominate staff and it's a bunch of freaking rookies. Unreal. He's a glorified HS coach.

Tennessee looked like a glorified high school program last year, so maybe it's a match made in heaven

 

[jjnealfl]

Sorry, but you are tilting your hand, sunshine. You are long on opinions and, I'm willing to bet, very, very short on support. "Get on Board," Really, invest and express, otherwise, please feel free to jump off the train. I live in Florida and I'll bet I get to more games than you do every year. Courage with no commas, no fortitude and a keyboard, what a dangerous combination. Figure it out genius.

Then the CJP ball washing club and quit with the "get on board" crap.

 

[STL0611]

You're the stupid one if you want our top 3 coaching positions filled by rookies. ( Sherrer might as well be a rookie. South f'ing Alabama) And you think that's gonna work. Holy Christ you're an insane person. BTW you mispelled "booster".

Btw, you misspelled misspelled.

 

[Voldon18]

Anyone who can support Freeze for OC and blast Ty Helton officially knows nada about football. Period.

Freeze = fraud
Helton = up and coming star

Coach Pruitt is putting together an amazing collection of teachers, recruiters and coaches eager to gain experience and success together.

All great coaches from Neyland to Saban had to be handed the keys to the kingdom at some point, a'ight.

 

[The Vin Man]

Wanna quit while you're behind?:crazy:

I think 14volfan88 likes the behind.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I'd say there is a bit of a difference between what Schiano did and Freeze.

Wth is half and half?

 

[Burger]

Most fans are in the ball washing club or honeymoon phase when a new hire is made. It existed with Jones, Dooley, and Kiffin. I'm in the wait and see club.

 

[TNnative]

How do we know freeze can coach offense. F that. He was hc not oc. How was their run game? Pruitt wants a balanced offense. Ole miss not balanced.

Get on board brother. Also, never listen to travis. He’s an asshat that panders to his teen to early twenties audience. Read about his kid having head lice and he kicking and screaming bc an airline told him he couldn’t fly story. Selfish. Also, disrespectful to women. Somebody will accuse travis of sexual harassment soon.

Well I wish they would hurry the Hell up.
