Fond memories of going to the pageantry of UT's opening games in the 90s. It was beautiful.

Today, it is a complete s..t-show. I'm not sure UT will ever recover. We're into our 2nd decade of dreadful.

We're like Ole Miss in the 1980s:rolleyes:

Well stated.

What I saw yesterday was way too many fundamental problems all over the field. Only about three guys out of eleven seemed to either do their job, or even know what they were supposed to do.

Secondly, was the complete lack of physicality from the Orange and White. I recall Pruitt stating that under the new S&C program the bodies were changing. Maybe they're not changing the right bodies.

I realize everyone is upset and disappointed but one game does not make a season. If the Vols win the next 3 games, very few people will be talking about Georgia State. Yes we were soft and unmotivated but now the coaches know what they need to work on. I expect a different looking team next week. Fans will be backing off the ledge until the next loss.

Please tell me why you think this team beats Florida.

Saying it was just 1 game ignores the actual results on the field. We didn't loose to a mid-tier P5 school. We were blown out by possibly the worst G5 school.

No. There will be a LOT more losses than this one game. It is very likely that we go winless in conference again for the second time in three seasons. Let that sink in.

You say they win the next 3?? They might win ONE...for sure losing to FL unless Pruitt changes QB’s but we all know how stubborn he is...

One game just ended pruitt’s career as a head coach. Sure he won’t be fired anytime soon but any elite recruit is looking for another home right now. Pruitt needed to win the easy games and be competitive in the others. He needed to show progress. Tennessee ended the year losing to Missouri and Vandy, having no players drafted then starts the year losing to Ga State.

This isn’t a talent problem, hell its not even a scheme problem, it’s that this team shows no interest in playing for this staff. ‘96 Memphis loss was bad but this is the most pathetic effort I’ve seen out of any Vol team. Pruitt needs to play the young guys and players like Jennings and let whatever happens happen.

Here we go.
Stop!
These coaches are paid millions to know what to work on before getting beat by a 2-10 sunbelt team.

Tennessee will not win the next three games. One of those is Florida. Ya know, a team that won only four games a few years ago and yet has dominated Tennessee for nearly 3 decades. Tennessee couldn’t lineup right yesterday - as the head coach pointed out in his post game presser. They couldn’t lineup last year. Think about that. THEY DON’T KNOW WHERE TO STAND ON THE FIELD WHEN A PLAY OR FORMATION IS CALLED.

Actually it can, win this one, they could've been 3-0 before Florida. Going into that game with a lot of confidence. Now they are looking at best 2-1, with a very ugly loss hung on them or 1-2 with one Southern Con. school win at best. Either way, the trip to The Swamp will not be one with belief that, "this is the year".

It’s over here for Pruitt. He wasn’t the right guy to start with. He’s a guy that’s never been a head coach and that’s an absolutely die hard life long fan of our biggest rival. It’s be like the rainy promoting someone from the taliban when we need a new general. Please lord don’t let Pruitt hang around for 3 or 4 seasons from now. It’s over. Recognize it and let’s move on

It may be different next week I don't believe it will be but it could I guess, but no win this season will change the fact of what happened yesterday. Ga state is an absolutely horrible team and we got manhandled, it's unforgivable plain and simple no matter how this season or the pruitt experience ends will change that for me. This was once a proud university that I will always love no matter what because of my time there but seeing that yesterday honestly made me sick to my stomach.
