Coaching search...AD promises the world. We hire an up and coming "rising star". It is beaten into us the new coach has a good pedigree or coached under a great coach. Great recruiter, players love him. He wants to be here and that's what is important.

Then the wins don't come, recruiting busts, player issues abound, and the dumpster fire reignites.

Then, we do it all over again.

If this team plays (and practices) as hard as it did against UGA there’s no doubt in my mind we can still make a bowl. So speak for yourself.

No doubt? Really? Seems as of now even when they fight and show effort they still lose by 26.

What r you talking about???
Wins? Worst season ever last year and you expected how many wins by now??
Recruiting bust?? I must of missed something?
Player issues exists on every team, and are more so when a new coach is coaching the old coaches players

Nobody is forcing you to listen.


Too many dang negavols around here. Yall sound like a bunch of entitled millennials. And tall aren't even putting in the work. Easy to bitch and moan from from your recliner.

The will to win means nothing without the will to prepare.

Hopefully our Vol players and coaches have the will to prepare and are doing so. If so, the wins will come, just not over night.

Go Vols!!!

Not a millennial, a bit too old. Also entitled? Really? How long have you been a fan? Do you have any conscious memory of a relevant Tennessee football program? I do.
Overnight? Where have you been the last decade?

Blame Helton, not Pruitt. Play calling still WIP. Helton is OJT. If this is still a problem come next year, then we'll talk.

Nah, don't need any translations regarding gibberish. Answer the question, how do you know he will not be committed to Tennessee ? Do you have inside information ?

My grandfather bought me my 1st tennessee hat when I was 4. Started following football closely in the early 90s, so yes I remember when we were relevant. The last decade has been difficult to stomach at times, but who am I to whine about it? Just got to trust that with a new AD and new coaching staff, they got it right this time.

I literally have zero influence or impact on any of those games. Do I think we win any of them? No

I didn’t say you or any fans have an influence on any game.

I think we can win all of those games if we keep improving and playing hard for 60 minutes. Leaving it all on the field can cover up a lot of mistakes and I think this team does that in each of the remaining games.

This team has only shown the fight and effort for a few minutes of game time. Obviously most of us, including myself, liked what we saw during that time. But for me, im gonna need to see a consistent effort before I think its enough to win some sec games.

I completely disagree with the idea of doubting our player’s efforts Individuals get beat by other individuals that are better even when 100% effort is given, so to dismiss their effort due to getting beat on individual assignments or teams getting beat by other teams, is an insult to the players.

I respectfully request you to cease and desist from insulting the players that have chosen to wear the Orange and bring the fight for the Vols.

It’s a free country, thank you for your service, keep on keeping on.

My 5 year old son played his 1st soccer game in a U6 league Tuesday. Before the game he wondered if he would be good enough because some of the older kids on his own team were better than he was. It was fun to watch him hustle the entire time he was on the pitch(Ain’t that what they call the Futbol grassy area.). He scored a goal and his team won(He is undefeated in organized sport. 1-0.).

I did explain the age difference and how they had a whole year to get better and to think how much better he would be when he was 6. RESULT!

In another post you said we think alike but just express it differently. Maybe 10%? The other 90%, not even close.

I.said we think alike, on that post.
Glad to here about the soccer game. My boy plays soccer as well and ive grown to like it pretty well. I took him to see the USMNT and it was pretty cool to see how skilled those guys are.

I take player effort from 1. What I see on the field, 2. What they coaches are saying and that is that alot of players are not "buying in, not. Giving there all" etc. Requesting me to cease and desist, doesn't accomplish anything. You should telk Ainge and others, who actually have a voice in knoxville, because they say the same thing, heck CJP said it. They are far more important than I. As.far as the effort, its got nothing to do with the w/l and individual battles. Ill know when I see it and I havent seen much. I get that agreeing with me isnt the popular thing to do and thats cool, but I'll say this....the vibe around the program is much more positive than it was after the florida / ev, utep game...the difference? Effort...everyone saw it and didnt see it in previous games..

I can’t tell if you are basing your opinion off of the play on the field, the talking heads or coach speak.

Keep on keeping on.
