Pruitt failed this test.

[CA_Vol]

This was a big test for Pruitt and his staff. A test they have failed miserably. These are two evenly matched teams from a talent perspective and we are taking a beating in every aspect of the game. Vandy players were well prepared and are stepping up making big time plays. Our team looks uninterested, undisciplined, and outmatched.

We clearly have a locker room full of losers, but this type of performance - against a team with lesser talent - is simply unacceptable. And it makes his sales pitch to the types of recruits we need much more difficult because this is a game we should never get blown out in.

UGA and UF are rolling and we are going backwards. Im not sure how the Pruitt-era will ultimately fare, but today was an opportunity to prove something. Instead, we proved we couldn’t even compete with a team comprised of equal or lesser talent.

I cant believe 2 weeks ago CBS (maybe it was ESPN) was asking if Pruitt was coach of the year...
This team is wildly inconsistent. Its incredible.

 

[Doberman]

Pathetic on every front.

Players and coaches.

Piss poor.

Vandy is a team full of 2 and 3 star players absolutely boatracing out guys. It’s beyond pathetic.

I wish I still had a metal trash can !!!! Damn I miss that thing right now.

Pruitt is in way over his head. I was really hoping the guy had it. It's painfully obvious that he is not a head coach. Not sure how this team could not be up for this game.

 

[james_govols]

The biggest issue is the lack of intensity. Team doesn't even seem to care.

 

[Boogievol]

Tennessee is the more talented team by far and getting stomped. We are in for two more years of embarrassing beatdowns under Jeremy "bama" Pruitt.

Neither does Pruitt, frankly.

 

[UrbanCryer]

Agreed

I’m not there yet, but this game has been disgraceful.

Piss poor.

I'm willing to overlook all the other embarrassing losses of the season but this is my "Strike 1" for Pruitt. It's inexcusable.

I don't think we are as talented as Vanderbilt. Sad to say, but it is true. We have a few stars sprinkled in, but then we also have some gaping weak spots...

 

[Boston_Vol]

I'm just glad this season is over

No, no they certainly are not

Apathy is settling in and that is a reality we have never faced as a fanbase.

Thanks to Fulmer, Deja Vu, 1920’s.

 

[dduncan4163]

Yup there are no excuses for this turd. This one falls squarely on Pruitt's shoulders

 

[tennesseepride84]

Not only is UGA, FL, and bama is in there head, we can now official vandy to the list and I never thought i would live long enough to even think these words.

And Im not sure you can blame that aspect on Pruitt. He actually had them believing and it even turned into 2 big wins. This team is full of losers (maybe after winning they realized they werent supposed to be decent?) and they simply dont have any real heart. I think Pruitt knows this team doesnt care so hes just ready to recruit over these guys.

 

[kemotoe]

We just need to endure the next 2 years and then get our next great coach

 

[FranklinVol-615]

Some people need to lose their job after this game and season.

 

[m1al]

I'm going to put this on players more than coaches. Coaches can only do so much when it comes to firing players up. Throw in NO senior leadership and to many players that know their UT 'careers' are at an end, are glad and don't give a f***..

Can't remember when I've seen such sorry effort. Blame it on the coaches if it makes you feel better but it just doesn't work that way.

 

[onevol74]

What are the odds that Pruitt skips the post game show?

Same here. Huge Strike 1. A Butch Jonesesque loss.
