Fulmer needs to give Pruitt these two things

[Vfl2407]

The money to go hire the best oline coach in the country
A bagman to get us the best oline in the country

Set up a booth to get your 30 day free trial to be an Offensive Lineman at the University of Tennessee.

the scheme is not difficult. game tape shows that these guys get lost at the 2nd level. they are not focusing on their block. they are focusing on everything going on. cant execute 1 job when concentrating on 2

Are any of The o-line not a Jones recruitment? Wasn’t sure if we had any freshman starting.

And a space suite just in case he needs to exit the planet?

We need a larger population of Tongans in Knoxville. There is a high school in the DFW area, where I live, with a large Tongan population and they routinely have one of the largest and most productive OLs in the area. The guys are absolutely huge and have an awesome pre-game ritual.

It's more about getting the right players.

We need five Trey Smith's.

It can be a Bohemian woman from Serbia for all I care. If they can block, they can block.

 

[RockyMountVol]

We can have tryouts like Florida did with their kicker like 3 years ago...

After we go 3- 9 maybe next year we can get to 5 wins then after that we should be back to 9 wins

I would love to see some tape of the oline play... I get caught up in watching to see if JG lives to play another down, so I miss the intricate details. One oline play did catch my eye.. Trey Smith made initial contact in his block and the rusher rolled off and went after the QB... Smith just stood there looking around like the play was over... did seem odd to me.

Back in the day, there were huge guys playing in East Tennessee High Schools, but the pregame ritual has more to do with eating beans and chewing Red Man for dessert.

I have rewatched the games and the Pruitt show some. Its not always the O-Line. Sometimes its the back or the tight end but its almost always at least one guy who misses. I don't think JG is all that great at recognizing when the blitz is coming or where its coming from.

Here's what I don't understand; everyone KNOWS that we don't have a strong O-line, yet I saw play after play go right up the middle and get stuffed. Were the coaches just trying to get the ball out of JG's hands before he got hammered again?

Jerome Carvin and Jahmir Johnson were brought in under Pruitt’s first recruiting class. They’ve seen time/started at guard for us this year several times.

...and a nice, swift kick in the ass.

Trinity is a awesome program.

 

[biggestvols]

I have no doubt he has both. First, I think we have the highest paid assistants in the SEC and the second, I’m sure that’s being handled. The thing is, every good football school has their bagmen.

The whole team sucks !!!!! Thats why not one real coach would
take the job. We are still the laughing stock of the SEC !!!

well hell, he would then have to know which guy is gonna mess up on the play beforehand. ive never seen a qb who could do that
