Sorry but I don't think anyone still left around here is a "banwagoner".

Maybe you haven't noticed but this program has a record of 41-46 since 2007. Its not like weve just had a bad season or two. The banwagoners are loooong gone. Only gluttons for punishment remain.

31 years buddy. I know plenty. If youre telling me that our team today isn't progressing towards something we can be proud of again, then you Sir are blind. Last year we got destroyed by Oklahoma. I don't believe we were destroyed yesterday. I believe we tried to hold on instead of attacking.

Now maybe the sunshine pumpers will open their eyes and see that Butch is a great recruiter, but a MAC level coach along with his staff. This morning everyone on TV is talking about them and how they do not know how to win. Ripping the bandaid off hurts, but it needs to be done. Debord is lost in the 70's with 2015 talent. If our DC puts Jumper in another play over Kirkland or anyone else, he should be fired. Its hard to process, but this could be the turning point for a lot of folks. Our mediocre staff was completely exposed last night in a game on national television for what they are. Coaches who know how to win and handle the pressure would have stayed on the gas peddle and never let off.

Oh and I forgot to mention the biblically epic losing streaks we have to our main rivals. There have been plenty of opportunities for people to turncoat. Only the lifers remain.

Your obviously just one of the sheep.

I've been going to games since 1980. I've been through the good and the bad.

I'll never accept a coach who doesn't play to win. Who can't make in game changes that put his team in positions to succeed.

Im pretty sure everyone knows the definition of insanity and what we did in tue second half was insane.

I'll keep buying my season tickets and I understand firing Butch this year would be idiocy. Let him win his 7 to 8 games per year for the 2 to 3 years. Let him stock the cupboard for the next coach who won't coach not to lose.

Tell me the last coach you fully supported bub?

Johnny? - nah he was ran out
Phil? - nope every said he quit too
Lane? - you might have. He didn't like u tho
Derek? - nope

Cmon man. No school has a coach that doesn't lose a few along the way. Try to put your pitchfork up for now

Great like I said. No one left here is a bandwagoner.

Spin it however you want, it was an embarrassing loss. This type of loss has become far too familiar.

We lost, it's over. I have never seen so many damn ******* in my life. Support your team when they're winning and losing or get the **** over yourselves. It's embarrassing as hell to see all you whining ass *****es. Sure it hurts to lose a game and it sucks, but it's time to keep moving. Everyone acts like we were going to be a national title contender. There's a huge percentage around here that needs they're jaws wired shut.

You must be new here.

The good news is there isn't a team left on the schedule that UT can't beat. The Bama game has the least % of us winning, but none of the East teams are great.

Truth.

And the lifers last night had bated breath, for we had
seen this kind of dance before.

Text that I sent in the third quarter:

This football game has evolved into a chess match that's wreaking havoc on my nerves. We need to get up 3 scores

This is a battle of which offensive line is worse. And which punter is better.

Agreed. No Tennessee team in its history, since 1891, has blown a 17 point lead at home in a loss. Never. Until Butch.

Bold assertion that I don't believe. I was in the stadium myself when a 16 point lead was blown to UCLA with 5:00 to go in the late 70s. I am pretty sure there was worse at some point in the last 100 years.

WTF, OP? Really? After the third similar meltdown by our HBC in three seasons, rational concern and criticism are warranted. I'm sorry.

I can tolerate losing to a higher ranked team, but the way we lost shows a lack of top tier coaching ability.
