Daily Gamecock: TN Overrated Again

There are definitely some threads we'll be wanting to revisit later in the year. This is one of them. :)
 
It's amazing that a fan of a team butch has beat 3 times in a row would put this out. I could understand an Alabama fan or Florida fan making this but USCjr. I mean the mighty Steve spurrier couldn't get them an sec championship. The years of uscjr being good are over. Welcome to the bottom with Missouri, Vandy and Kentucky.
 
SC was really over a barrel when they made that hire. Pretty much no one wanted the job. I don't know the specifics, but I can imagine they overpaid for Muschamp and had to eat some vicious riders on the contract.

If I remember they thought they had Fuente, Smart ,and Les Miles. Or that's what my Gamecock buddy will tell you
 
Scar is a disaster with a pathetic excuse for a coach. I wish fl wouldn't have run him out of town.
 
I remember a time when many Vol fans wanted to know "why doesn't Tennessee open it's wallet and get a quality coach like Will Muschamp?". Anybody else remember that?
 
Hard to disagree with this guy's opinion.. Especially as a gamecock. I encourage vol fans to pull the reins back a bit and temper expectations. This could end up a heartbreak season if things do not work out. Butch Jones has yet to beat Florida or Alabama and he is entering season 4. Butch Jones has much to prove, and has no means arrived to the level of a "successful" SEC head coach. Perhaps that reality will change after this season.

He may be correct that Butch hasn't prov anything, but he is flat out wrong that UT fails to live up to expectations every year.UT was picked 2nd behind UGA last season and finished 2nd. The year before they were picked no better than 4th in the East. It is amazing to me that even UGA fans are pushing that false narrative, I assume because they are afraid people will realize they are the perennial underachievers.

It is also silly of the writer to discount that a team that was heavily laden with sophomores and freshmen won't Improve from year to year. Not to mention getting an upgrade at DC. Nope. Sorry. Dumb article. And the "can't spell Citrus Bowl without UT" comment show the guy is a homer with an agenda. It is going to be fun watching SC suck again.

Solid post... all around.
 
Ask Florida fans how good a coach that Will Muschamp was .... Glad Tennessee did not wind up with him. Who wants to play for someone so volatile?
