How Bad Is It in Knoxville?

In 2005 I thought we hit the bottom.
Then, in 2008 I thought we hit the bottom.
Then, in 2010 I thought we hit the bottom.
Then, in 2012 I thought we hit the bottom.

Now its 2017... if this isn't the bottom then I don't plan to be hanging around here any more to really see it. Too painful.

Just apathy. I was at a Boy Scout camping event all weekend and didn't know who won or lost until I got home last night. Most have checked out. Came in to work today and none of my employees have even mentioned the game or football in general.

I think most are just waiting on the season to be over.

Well maybe perhaps if some of these folks would just go camping with the Boy Scouts, eat some Triple Chocolate Cherry Fudge Dutch Oven Cake, a lovely ribeye & some amazing pasta & bread, they might just be happy enough to ignore what's going on with Rocky Top and See the world from the REAL ROCKY TOP (the one in the Smokey Mountains).

HAHA. yes Brian i was on that Trip with you. We ATE like KINGS didn't we?

How is it in Knoxville? From an out of state alum back for homecoming: stayed DT, full fans dressed in Orange. Friday ,Ate in Market Square surrounded by fans in orange (on a rainy early evening). Walked to game surrounded by fans in orange . Stadium maybe 65 to 75% full for a HC 7:30 kick. When I was in school HC was earlier to accomodate band parties at 8 pm for students. All in all, not bad for a season gone south.

Butch should have been fired on the spot after losing two to the Black Knights.

What is this football you speak of?

It's a game where you have a ball carrier that tries to get in a chalked box called an end zone. You have players that block for him and sometimes a player will throw it to another player. It's really complicated and we haven't quite mastered it yet.

It's actually at 11 right now buddy. Never thought I would see the day that Tennessee vols would be 11 pt dogs to Missouri. Never been a worse time to be a vols fan. At this point true fans should be hoping we lose out to ensure we don't have another second of Butch Jones .

Either Curry is a really crappy AD, or Sexton is one hell of a negotiator.

And don’t give yourself an exit strategy. And when you allow your terrible coach to build a staff so toxic you can’t even name an interim coach without being terrified of everything falling apart completely.

Wonder why he is going off on a trainer

The real reason was that year at USC he failed to communicate he had pulled a player and USC broke an 80 yd TD run because we had 10 men on the field. It nearly cost us the game.


But the responses of some of y'all . . . .:eek:lol:

Yeah really. Saban does it, doubles down on it and everyone laughs.

CBJ gives plenty of reasons to criticize, no need to make stuff up.
