Sick and tired of hiring guys we have to say "Let's give him a chance"!!!! We needed a proven guy like Patterson or Petersen etc, but right out of the gate they went cheap trying to hire Shiano!!! That's bad even without Sandusky issue!!! I hate this administration!!!!!!

Maybe were not as elite as you, I, or many of our fanbase thinks. It is what it is

Maybe you suffer from being beat down from so long.
We are top 10 in wins, you don't get there without doing something!!

We will not stay there with attitudes like yours btw

We even had the jump on FSU who's been just as bad as we are! I'm sure they'll just pick between Patterson or Peterson maybe even saban now.

Well Patterson and Peterson wasn't homeruns when they first started. They worked their way there.

Also with reports of neither being interested, that does show what the elite coaches think of this job right now.

This board was full of people saying that Mullen was no better than Jones, wouldn't give Morris the light of day, and are disgusted with hiring a multiple championship coordinator while Mississippi State hired Moorhead. Fact is, Tennessee is not a great job right now, and too many people wouldn't know a great coach if he ran you over.

My first choice would've been Mullen. Unfortunately Currie tried to sneak Schiano in on us and screwed everything up! Given where we were, Pruitt is a grand slam hire. Given the track record of DC's in the SEC, he has a great chance!

As for Petterson, Leach and those other west coast coaches... how many are in the CFP? How many were in their division championships??? 'Nuff said. An SEC team will eat a PAC team 9 out of 10 times. Why would we want a PAC coach?

Tennessee by pure LUCK just hit a home-run and doesn’t even realize it with Jeremy Pruitt. Favorite this tweet. twitter.com/brett_mc…

Sorry I’m not excited about a 1st time coach using Tennessee to “work his way up”...

See my thread about "How about this head coach"

9-2
6-6
6-6
7-5
6-6
9-2

Would you hire this Head coach from another school with this record on his resume his 1st 6 years?

LSU did.

:loco:






Nick Saban in case you are wondering.

Pruitt is a solid hire, especially in our position. If anyone can't see that then they are just blind to facts and want something to bi*** about

We gave Dooley a chance.

We gave Butch a chance.

Might as well keep the tradition going until we’re doing this again 3-4 years.
