Doug Matthews on Midday 180

"Poleing" the fan base must get tiring and I'm surprised so many living on the buckle of the Bible Belt are into that these days. Maybe starting up a new poll will reverse fortune for the Vols the rest of the season and I encourage you to do that.
You would be in a minority there, I think.
My poleing the last few years here chapped a lot of hides.
You’ve got to know when it’s time to take your pole and go home.
Butt, it really is funny that I did so right before arguably our most embarrassing loss in Vol history (GSU).

I hope so, but not counting on it. On any given day any team can be beat, I tell you what would really make Pruitt look really bad, is start jg, and get down by 21to 0, then put in maurer and we get beat by 7.
I dont think that scenario will ever play out. 45 to 0 is what I'm thinking if JG is involved in any way.
 
Boosters dont make contributions to the athletic dept?

Were you living in some strange world where you thought a person just cut a check to a coach?


No I know boosters make contributions to the athletic department. But there is a reason UT is sending monthly checks to an intern in Tuscaloosa until 2021. Look all I am saying is if a person thinks the boosters are going to fund an entire buy out of 12 million (including staff) it’s just not going to happen based on history. I am not saying anyone is right or wrong for wanting the coach out.
 
Ahh apparently I read your message wrong. It sounded like you were saying the boosters would refuse to contribute to a buyout of Pruitt. I see now you are saying that buyouts are not paid by boosters. My bad. One more reason to hire you when the time comes.

No problem Sir! It’s a tough time to be a Vol and everyone is on edge.

Referencing The Bible Belt for why people shouldn’t do polling? Wow...that’s a new one. Talk about a REACH
 
Tennessee can't afford to give coaches a 5 or 6 year deal then fire them after 2 years. Get real. Butch is still getting paid until 2021 i believe. Pruitt is NOT going anywhere. He was brought here to change and rebuild Tennessee football. We all knew it was going to take a couple years before we seen results on the field. First off we have to get rid of most of what Butch Jones brought to Tennessee. ( i.e. changing the culture )


When will this ridiculous notion end. CBJ left plebty enough talent to beat GS and not get humiliated by Vandy

Hey there "true fan" who saw the glory days of the 90s, hope your day is going well and that maybe you've watched some football and learned a few things since we last spoke.

Well, sir...I know at least enough to know that the rebuilding task facing CJP is worse than the one facing Majors back at the end of the 70s.

Do I get any points for knowing at least that much???
