Quit fighting it's stupid. Regardless of the outcome, I'm still mighty proud of our Volunteers. Keep your heads up, things will get better just give it time.

How can you blame depth for this game, they put up 21 in the 3rd quarter, if UT is gassed in the 3rd quarter then Wylie isn't doing his job, which is highly doubtful, continuing to cover Julio with one man is ridiculous after he torched you for 100 yards in one half, I don;t want a new regime, Dooley deserves 3 or 4 years at least, but getting housed at home so badly in the 3rd quarter again isn't acceptable

wylie's traing regiment will take a few months to take hold of the players and show any results. I just think there is something going on in the locker room. Players are angry and still dwelling on Kiffen, and Fulmer, and are not buying in to DD and staff. Maybe i'm wrong, and our coaches are as bad as the team on the field.

Choose your poison. Blitz and go man, or rush four and chase receivers in the pattern for eight seconds. It was obvious, when the legs of the front seven began to wear bama started to hit on numerous big plays. It's not the first time we have seen this pattern this year.

You don;'t have to bring the house every time you blitz develop a scheme to confuse the O line and keep a safety over top of Jones it's not like they were running a spread that we couldnt match up with
 
Exactly. I certainly understand the frustration by the fan base but calling for a new coaching staff and all the whining about taking a beating from a very solid alabama football team is not the answer at this point. A fourth coaching regime in three years would be utterly disastrous. You would lose another handful of commitments in the transition thus a third straight year of watered-down recruiting classes.

Do you honestly want to stick with Dooley and Wilcox for four more years? I don't, I've seen enough to know that this staff will never be successful. I would rather sacrifice another year and get a mature staff with a history of success. We have the money to attract successful coaches. The problem is we just don't have an AD that has any respect from the coaching fraternity. Regarding Dooley and his staff, I don't care if we only have high school talent, they should coached well enough to at least have 11 players on the field. This is the fifth straight game where Tennessee's defense has had too few or too many players on the field. I truly can't understand how anyone can defend or be supportive of this incompetent staff.
 
I was joking. Not sure if you are...but, I'd rather not do this over again. :hi:

If Dooley isn't the answer then in three years you'll have no choice, and won't have anything to show for the time between now and then. And right now, I don't see any signs he is the right guy, but I'm pretty sure he'll get at least 3 seasons.
 
Just curious, when will they stop airing Tennessee on ESPN? Hell they may not want us on there anymore.

You do realize the reason why Tennessee is on ESPN or any other major network right now is because of the "other" team they play.

It's definitely not because of UT's accomplishments.

I agree. It all comes back to Hamilton. I feel hed be hesitant to make another hire simply because if he did hed have to leave as well
 
I'm going to stick with Dooley and give him the fair shot that he deserves to turn this team around. Having said that, things like too many/not enough players on the field are surely hard to explain away...
 
Face it, VERY VERY small defence for the SEC. You willl be worn down and with zero or limited talents equals what happened tonight. For all of you that rip coaching, skills, size and talent matters.....No pressure of the QB front the front four. Granted their QB took hits when the extra bodies came, but with only 4 he picked our corners at will. I hope Tim Priest will ask Evans " Can this team bounce back next week for SC".... Yes and blah Blah Blah and Lattimore rushes for 200 yards next week.
