I FREAKING LOVE IT

That last interview with Pruitt. What about JG throwing for that much. Nice job interviewer. Call that great coach out.

 

[VolGirl1126]

That was cute!

Yeah what a goober CJP is. It's fine to talk about the negative but dadgum you should point out the positive too. Glad he got called out on national TV by the interviewer.

“Cmon coach, your kids played their asses of for you!”

Cole Cubelic, ftw.

 

[Orange defense]

Maybe I misunderstood but I think coach was implying this game should not have been close.

Liked when JG hugged him and yelled we are going to a bowl game.

To me it's a sign of a coach that wants perfection and will settle for nothing less and is never satisfied. After the past decade on the Hill........ And especially coach cliche, I'm absolutely ok with a reporter having to point it out. At least it's not being force fed down our throats and the coach (Butch) gloating about it tryin to make himself look good!!! But that's just my 2 cent's.

 

[TNHopeful505]

I love that coach has that never done attitude. But you KNOW we will hear some awesome celebration stories later from this. There is dancing going on right now.

But the reality is you cannot let the emotions of what's happening trump the fact that you performed less than you were capable of. The performance tonight got the job done. But it wouldnt have against many other teams. Pruitt wants to get to the level of execution that it doesnt matter what the other team does. We are going to do what we do better.

Hes right

 

[KoachKrab127]

I see nothing wrong with a coach thinking about and discussing what his team needs to do to improve.

Kicking game sucked... Neyland is shaking his head. But the upside, the Vols once again did not mail it in.

They definitely tried to lose it. Credit Mizzou for the blocks and fumble, but it felt like UT should have been up by 2 scores throughout.

Winning coaches seek perfection... not just wins. He's right. UT made more than enough mistakes to lose this game.

I like Pruitt’s demand for excellence but also like the interviewers response

 

[Knox-a-rue]

It was great when JG hugged him.
It was great when Cubelic (?) said the Vols played well.
It was great when CJP said we will never be good enough to keep aiming higher. (And we aren't close yet.)

GBO!
Celebrate tonight.
On to Candy.
Then we go bowling.

 

[1Big_Orange_Fan]

No, impossible. More likely that he was just checking to see if he had food stuck in his teeth.

Agreed. Not many coaches, if any, would be pleased with a 24-20 win when UT dominated the game, except for the scoreboard. I loved how he put Cole back in his place and went through what he thought without missing a beat. A dropped TD, 2 blocked FGs, and a TO when they were driving and had momentum. An offsides late in the game when they got a sack also camt happen against better teams. That said, ill let him worry about fixing them issues and ill enjoy the win and going bowling.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

How bout we covered the spread too! Sloppy ads game, but we found a way to win! We have a ways to go, but future looks bright.
