Good News / Bad News

[TheColdVolTruth]

The good news is that Florida Atlantic is 5-6, so we haven't heard the usual suspects sending love letters to him (ala Sab with Jesse Scroggins) asking for him to come "home" to Knoxville.

The bad news is FAU would get bowl eligible with a win this week, and if UT beats Vandy, there could be a shot at some bottom feeder bowl pairing the two. We've already been smoked by teams with our last two head coaches on their respective staffs. We may just go three for three.

HORSE MANURE! Botch is an errand boy for Nick Satan and Drooley just does what Barry Odom tells him to do. Neither had a fart's worth of wind to do with winning those games.

It's not HORSE ****. I didn't say UT lost because of their contributions, but I did see both of them at Neyland representing two schools that smoked us. Sorry your comprehension sucks, though. Life must be tough getting triggered by statements you don't understand.

What FAU doesn't have that the other two do is an NFL top 10 pick at QB. So I would welcome the opportunity to play anyone in any bowl. Whoever we play in a no name bowl is going to be worse than 75% of the teams we played this year.

I was thinking about that last night. Both former coaches got to come back and rub our nose in the mess they both helped to create. Sucks.

Apples to oranges. Neither is the head coach. As far as playing FAU, I would be thrilled. That means we would have beaten Vandy to get bowl eligible. Even if UT goes to a bowl at 5-7, we need the extra practice.

Do we really need the extra practice, or just more time in the weight room?

Considering the way we tackle, you better get some practice or better coaches.

At 6-6 I would say UT is destined for Memphis or Nashville, after the Citrus bowl picks there is no predetermined order.

Both!!!!!

I thot the same thing last nite driving home. All 3 of the atrocious hires we've made since firing the HoFer, have now come into Neyland to literally participate in horrible acts of humiliation against us.

It will be just our luck to draw Joey Freshwater's squad in a bowl and get embarrassed once again.

If there ever was a program under a curse ...

Was it knocking out Rohan Davey?
Was it firing Phil?
Is it Sex Week?

... what on Earth?

Geniuses usually handle such things with ease.

Because at 12:34pm you chose to give it your undivided attention. That's why. :-D

 

[volfannbama]

Im desparate to start a thread. Anyone got an idea for a topic?

Why Not, Misery Loves Company and the Vols, let's do It
Wait, we have to beat Vandy first, so Not Happening

Frankly, coaches with character would be ashamed of poor performance and would not like seeing what they created, instead of acting like they had some effect on their new teams getting those wins. Of course our past administrators share a lot of the blame. Unfortunately, given huge buyouts for NON-performance, coaches don't care. In the future, I hope we include some type of significant buy-out penalty for overall records and SEC records below .500.
