Negativity from fans and media makes a difference

They can label it any way they want, but fan support is what bring in the $$$$$, and having fans boo and not come to the game is a big signal. And don't become self-righteous, this is why CBJ has a job, sure he winning more game, but lets look at the cost...UT has invested (tax payers) a lot of money in him and the other coaches to keep the fans happy and bring "winning football" yes UT is 3-0, but let's step back and look at that........if this was such a big deal, why are fans here and the general public so upset.......hmmm, let's see........we gave them raises, we paid more for a Defensive Coach, and CBJ loyalty..........which by the way is a real thing with him, his DC left him after one of the best years, he was not fired, he left..........why? I think Why is a great question that CBJ is not willing to answer, because he would have to admit that mid-major coaches have out coached him, but did not out recruit him...........there you go.....its Coach Jones and Deborg.....being outcoached by smaller schools, but just having enough talent to beat these teams at the end of the day........I've said it, he has been out coached 2 out of 3 times...............flame away........but this is how I see it.

They've had their collective rears kissed, and egos stroked since the beginning of 2016.

It hasn't mattered one bit, obviously.

Not sure why 3 weeks of criticism would make them wilt like delicate flowers.

They've gone soft. Physically and mentally.

That's a bad combo.

This makes no sense whatsoever. Fade you and I have done this before and nothing has changed over the years. You still are a disgruntled individual and I'm still a happy go lucky guy. You can twist it and spin it but I'll never believe you have a good intention in your body.

Remember years ago when you came out all like my kids can read this and I need to change?

Yeah, you didn't change

Do you want to debate my post or just take shots at me?

Let me explain to you how business works and yes, UT football is a business. See we had a horrible coach named Dooley for 3 years. He was eventually fired. Do you know why he was fired? Most think it is because he wasn't winning, but that isn't true. He was fired because fans stopped buying tickets. But let's pretend fans stayed positive in 2012 and sold out every home game and purchased all the season tickets for 2013, even with the team going 5-7, because they wanted to be positive to support the team. If that happened then Dooley is still the coach in 2013. As fans we vote with our money and that is all the athletic dept listens to. If we don't beat UF and go 3-1 over the next 4 weeks then I won't renew my season tickets. Why spend $300+ dollars on every home weekend to watch trash football?

So since UT football is a business maybe we need to up the salary cap on our players? Maybe that would help?

The face value on My tickets for this week's game is $95- double of my NFL tickets. You have the ba!!s to charge me that ridiculous price and put that on the field. I will act anyway I want. You cant have everything. If you screw people over and put out a crap product on the field then you are going to hear it!

I'm normally very positive and I'm happy to be 3-0, but there's nothing wrong with fan frustration at this point. I don't know if there's something going on internally, Butch really didn't want to show his cards til this week (which would be pretty dumb since we went to OT with App State), or the gameplan just sucks. There are way too many talented kids on this team to be letting smaller schools hang with us.

It was criticism not a shot, sorry if I hurt your feelings. Maybe you should grow thicker skin and hey it's not my fault for what I said. It's your fault for reading it and then forming an opinion based on what I said.

Wow that is so much easier than taking responsibility!

Here's what I think. Someone needs to get to this team right now. Today, and tell them to tune out. Don't listen to the noise. Don't listen to the internet, don't listen to the SEC channel, don't listen to the radio. get rid of the noise immediately. You have one goal and one goal only, because these guys are on the edge of something great and this negativity could push them off a cliff if they listen to it. These horses need blinders.

Please tell me you made a typo with the 3-1 over the next 4 games would cause you to drop your season tickets. If we did do that we would have beaten 2 ranked teams on the road and #1 Alabama to be 6-1.

:crazy: Ga and Fla should not be ranked at all!

But honestly, to the person I quoted, regardless of the product in the field the prices are getting out of hand.

The thing is why be negative when that hurts the team? Be positive get behind the team and help fire them and the coaches up and then there's a good chance we see them playing better and winning by bigger margins. But no most people wants to put them down in the dirt then Bitc! When they play bad!! Cheer up folks and get back to the positives, remember were 3-0 and until we lose we could go all the way!! GBO!!
