I’m not advocating for him to get a job that’s not available, however he has won everywhere he has coached. Winning at Wake Forest with their academic standards. Supposedly Fulmer wouldn’t let him bring any offensive assistants with him and also handcuffed him by not letting him install his complete offense.

If Tennessee goes 4-8 or worse next year it’ll be a six year rebuild.
Do you think CJP would be fired after the 2021 Alabama game if Tennessee has one or two wins? 2021 i think could be historically bad in my opinion and i think the next head coach has to be given five years to right the ship.

I thought they’d pull the plug already. 2022 is the best recruiting class in the state from over the last decade. Next year should be an 8-4 year. I think we all know it won’t be. CJP is an under achiever. If they pull the plug early enough to salvage the recruiting class next year then the 2022 season could still be really promising. We need a coach that wins the games he’s supposed to and can win two to three a year he isn’t. That hire is literally coaching right down the road. It feels so hard to believe but the right coaching change could spring board UT right back up to the level or Georgia.

Without seeing the schedule, I'm guessing 5-7. Too many questions and inexperience at QB.
Here are 11 of the games on the 2021 Tennessee football schedule dates haven't been figured out.

Bowling Green
Pitt
South Alabama
@Alabama
@Florida
@kentucky
@Missouri
Georgia
Ole Miss
South Carolina
Vanderbilt

He has a great situation like Cutcliffe at Duke.
True, but...and I can’t believe I’m going to type this.... Lots of Duke fans are ready for some new blood In the program. I personally believe Cut has 1 more year and then he’ll retire. If things improve a lot next year, maybe that will change, but I have my doubts.

Bowling Green-Win
Pitt-Win
South Alabama-Win
@Alabama-Loss
@Florida-Loss
@kentucky-Probable Win
@Missouri-Probable win
Georgia-Loss
Ole Miss-coin toss
South Carolina-probable win
Vanderbilt-win

So basically Slingblade can go 7-5 next year with this team still being a train wreck and probably get an extension with our genius AD. We can further cement ourselves as a third tier team with our glorious AD at the helm.

So next year it is all JP recruits and transfers. 100% his people as starters, so.....either 8 wins or better or he will never have a decent program. Good news is Bailey and Salter, RB's, WRs and OL all have potential to be great if let loose. I think the talent is there....Chaney has been a good OC in the past.

The bad news is I have no idea how this season went off the rails. Up to the first half of the Georgia game this was a team that was top 5 in the SEC and second half of Georgia onward, was one of the 3 worst teams in the SEC.

I live like 30 mins from bowling green if we lose to them I will never hear the end of it! But we need a bigger hire. Tired of going out on that limb and taking a chance.

Biggest mystery I have encountered with a team. This is where Pruitt failed this season. No shake up, no fun, no leadership. It was repeatedly trying to stick a square peg in a round hole.
