Fire Pruitt [merged]

[sona]

I'm collecting Vol Cards after the game.

You’re going to need a bigger boat.

Line was 36....

......36

 

[Billy Ratliff]

Below would be my first 3 calls in order...With a laser focus on Urban Meyer. With a great pitch he just might listen. If Saban could do it Meyer could-win a Natl Championship with two different SEC teams.
-Urban Meyer (ret)
-Chris Petersen (WA)
-Gary Paterson (TCU)

So two scumbags, one of whom would never come here, and possibly the best actual coach in the game (who also will not come here)?

 

[VolsFan-TX]

Last year he was criticized for being too fiery when he kicked the chalkboard.

jg slides short of the sticks on our third possession (when we had the momentum). We end up punting and they take it right down our throats.
Jg misses a wide open Palmer for a td at the end of the first half
Ga state had 2 4th and short plays in the first half and go for it (and convert) both times.
We had 4th and short twice in the first half also and punt it both times (the crowd booed the second time because we’d seen them convert in the same situation twice.
Pruitt doesn’t have the passion or communication skills to be a great head coach. We’ve now seen jg for 3 seasons do the same thing. Always check down (never taking ***** down the field), not have good football iq or awareness often throwing shot of the sticks on important possessions, and with an absolute terrible pocket awareness/clock

I disagree -- saw JG and a lot of other players taking them all over the field.

 

[Billy Ratliff]

I don't think Fulmer needs to feel safe,

So you’re in the brain cell group. Cool.

 

[Tennesseefan2019]

They ****ing got beat by Ga state

BYU will kick our arses if this low level of play continues next week

 

[lifeisdeep]

It seemed to me whenever I watched practice videos that there was not a whole lot of urgency or intensity. I thought perhaps I was just missing something, and that the team was actually possibly being well-coached and learning how to play...

 

[vols 30]

He's not fiery enough. His demeanor is way too laid back and the team/coaches have taken on his personality. There was no sense of urgency the whole game. He's not head coaching material.

Definetly doesn't know how to prepare a team.

 

[Nationdom]

This team, for whatever reason does not respect Pruitt or there is some kind of rift between them because this just doesnt make sense. There is no excuse for this, Vandy and Missouri. The players are playing slow with no passion and no urgency

 

[Sara Clark]

Well I accidentally voted yes. When I get home, on the computer, I'll see if there is a way to change vote to NO.

 

[OrangeTsar]

Did Pruitt just say on the post game "The sun will come up tomorrow".? Just Great....we hired "Coach Annie"

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

This team, for whatever reason does not respect Pruitt or there is some kind of rift between them because this just doesnt make sense. There is no excuse for this, Vandy and Missouri. The players are playing slow with no passion and no urgency

Maybe he can play paintball with them again.

 

[diehardvolsfan]

Anything worse then 6-6 this year Pruitt needs to go!!! This loss might have sealed his fate he probably knows it...what a BUST of an opener...smdh....

 

[Cartervol]

Whatever message he has isn't getting through. That was the most embarrassing loss in forever. Team laid a egg.

 

[landscapingvol]

Beat two top 15 teams in year one. Our best players are mostly Fr.

There is no excuse for today or the last four games. Every team plays young players, including GSU

 

[maotai]

Team not buying in and his game day decisions concern me more than his demeanor.

 

[UCVOL]

Last year he was criticized for being too fiery when he kicked the chalkboard.

That was all for show.

 

[2GeeZ4VolZ]

Tee Martin could not be worse. Let’s do this Tee! We need all UT folks. Go get Kippy, Steele, et al. Done with these carpet baggers with no blood relation. If you bleed this color you die before you lose to Ga St. Tell me I’m wrong. Please, enlighten us all.

 

[barryjim]

I don’t care how they respond. A win over freakin BYU does not replace a loss vs GA ST. Also there ain’t no way this team can win 7 or 8 games, heck they will be lucky to win 5.

i predict they won two!

 

[hUTch2002]

i am so starved for a winning football team that i want to back the brinks truck up to urban meyer's front yard.

Hell no!!!!

 

[maotai]

Whatever message he has isn't getting through. That was the most embarrassing loss in forever. Team laid a egg.

Every time I read an article about how the toughness and/or strength and conditioning has improved I thought about how we hear this in year two with every new coach and it has not meant crap each time. And once again everyone fell for it.

 

[Jaws]

He beat a good Auburn team last year and Kentucky’s best team ever. So he has flashed an ability to field a decent team.

But good grief, today was simply unbelievable.

 

[Billy Ratliff]

BYU will kick our arses if this low level of play continues next week

I think we will match up ok with BYU but still could easily lose. GSU had a Sr mobile qb, two Sr (I think) RBs, and their linemen were not undersized. Our terrible OL has a chance vs BYU. And the BYU QB is such a run threat, also isn’t he a Fr?

 

[TNVOLNAVY]

only if he says something like “we’re working like heck”. I remember how that one turned out.
