gut check

Football is a helluva drug

That's what they get for hiring a first year HC that wasn't here in the system already. He will either learn on the job or be fired eventually.

 

[RollinVol]

Wow, OP you’re drunk

Can you blame them after watching that game and another year

 

[Boston Vol]

Obviously the university can afford to cut a check for $11.8 million.

 

[rockytop989]

You don’t even know who #22 is. And you want to fire the coach. Smh. Surprised you even know who the coach is.

 

[Lloyd_Christmas]

Such a stupid thread. He took over a crap team and finished the season with a crap team but managed two top 25 upsets. Despite the extremely pitiful finish to the season, you don't have enough of a body of work to decide if he's going to be the guy or not. This recruiting class is critical as is the offseason of S&C. Year two will tell you what he's got. If they don't make a big jump in performance, then I won't expect him to work out either...but you can't make that determination based on this season.

Mind your own business and get out.

Anything happening in the SEC is my business.

I'm just here so I don't get fined

Our team cannot even do the basics well like "tackle". We cannot tackle a pillow.
I saw # 22 get blown back 7 yards tonight by one Vandy player.
Exactly what are these players taught in practice. Nothing.
Fire Pruitt now and we will be ahead. Don`t wait 2 or 3 more years.
The team and coaches are like a big pile of vomit.

You are ridiculous, this team could not tackle before Pruitt. He needs time, I am pissed off too.

 

[JCHateSteve]

I said it in another thread. It's going to be awful around here until at least signing day.

 

[UTK]

That's as dumb as the OP

Why? What’s acceptable improvement from this horrendous season? Just curious.

 

[goooooovols]

Can anyone deny our tackling is at or worse than it was at the beginning of the year, have we seen improved play at any position for that matter?
I know over reacting is not a great look but the forum is to express and discuss Tennessee football at the posters discretion and via his or her thoughts on the current state of our vols.... I’m sure a large majority of fans are not thrilled with the terrible finish we showed, a few million a year says our coach should answer for that without half-assed, blank-faced comments.

No its not. You need to just shut your mouth and mind your own business.

 

[EZE]

He gets at least one more. If he retains Helton and starts JG next year I’ll question his coaching ability more.

Pruitt is a much better football coach than Butch, but I fear that Pruitt is in much further over his head with this job than Butch ever was.

It's been awful around here for a long time

 

[BlackCreekVol]

Should we consider shutting down the football program at TN?.

Hahahahaha....but seriously, maybe

 

[vol-un-tear]

Really? I figured this was coming

After this it’s a legit point. After 11 games and they his effort?

I agree with everything you posted except for firing Pruitt. It is premature and you know a university is not going to fire Pruitt after one year especially with the buyout clause. There is no value in making statements to fire Pruitt after one year. We did improve record wise by 1 game even though I'm not sure this team could beat last year's team.

Agreed. Pruitt needs to hang to that class for dear life.

 

[Smokeydog1998]

Offseason is gonna be AWESOME!

For who !!! The Basketball team !!

 

[Freak]

Pruitt isn't getting fired after year one so it's a pointless discussion to have.

 

[C-south]

Maybe. It’s time to make career saving decisions for sure.

 

[volfanjustin]

Offseason is gonna be AWESOME!

With this fanbase, in about 3 months there will be people here talking about this team going 10-2 next season

 

[LittleCat]

No. Just no.

 

[gr82batnvol]

Omg...stop!
