Cliffs:
Game thoughts: Disappointed. Players played hard the whole game. He specifically mentioned Vickers having a great game and season.
How he handles speculation about Jones' job security: Jones and I gave a strong relationship, knew of him before I got here, we work hard to be supportive of each other. We see each other every Sunday, win or lose. We are all disappointed but you put that game behind you and look at the next game
How he handles the Twitter noise: I came back to UT because its a national program with a national following and passionate fans. We are happy when we win, disappointed when we lose. The noise and expectations come with the territory. Each day, regardless of the result, we have work to do. Thats what professional do.
On how he avoids knee-jerk reactions: Step back and take the big picture view. His dad was a surgeon. No problem you can't make worse by operating. Have to be careful. He believes supporting staff and players for the next game is most important.
On whether he will evaluate the program at the end of the year: We evaluate every day, we are all evaluated every day. Learned from Coach Snyder
lets win this play, are we gonna be better today than we were yesterday? Guarantano getting better, young players are promising. I know folks are frustrating with W-L. We must support our players
our seniors only have 3 games left. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Its a long process.
