Pruitt Is Not The Answer

[VolFreakJosh]

Never thought I’d dislike a coach more than Pruitt.

He’s shown us nothing to make us think he’s an SEC HC.

Getting blown out by a below average UK team and getting embarrassed by your main rivals three years in a row is not improvement.

There’s nothing to be excited about.

He never was but Tennessee passed on a guy with 140 wins and a great coaching tree for another failed Saban reject.

Who did we pass on?

 

[joevol33]

Starting to agree

 

[arkyvol]

Agreed, but another bargain basement coach doesn't thrill me.

 

[21VOL]

Amen. Never thought this was a good hire.
Time to hire someone new

 

[VolArmy74]

Who did we pass on?

Mike Leach.

The fact that Harrison Bailey only got 10 snaps in camp was all I needed to hear. He isn’t going to do anything here. Georgia State, BYU, blown out by Kentucky. Then he rolls out a 5th year senior who has proven time and time again that he can’t win. Unbelievable!

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

I definitely now feel more than ever that he's not taking us anywhere, but he will never match Butch and Dooley. Doesn't even come close.

Pruitt knows football, he's just not a head coach and does not know the first thing about how to manage a team....at least at this level.

 

[Doctrippin]

Pruitt is going to be around for at least another year. It would be a disaster to make another coaching change, and the program can't afford it anyway. If he beats Florida everybody will settle down.

 

[VolGirl81]

I think the most disappointing thing I see is, I thought we were getting a staff that would coach players up, improve upon the players abilities. We have fallen short on that fundamental concept with every hire

 

[VOLnMiami]

He's never been the answer!...Fulmer is terrible about hiring coaches...Remember the Clawfense?...Sanders...Coach Cut was the best coach on his staff for years and I am still steaming mad we didn't hire him when we had the chance after Kiffin left.

Probably 2 years if covid restrictions are still in place next season.

 

[GetEmVols]

Mike Leach.

Oh ok.

 

[hexnut]

I did it my way, only my way sucked big time.

Bailey is just behind where he needs to be. The spring shut down and then his QT for a few weeks and you have a kid who doesn't know the playbook that well yet. Part of that could be Weinke's fault, but I bet we see a change there for next year.

 

[Doctrippin]

Oh ok.

Leach's air raid has been exposed quick by SEC DC's. All you have to do is rush 3.

 

[DaUndergroundMan]

He talks like he's Saban. Raises his eyebrow like the Rock. Look like Beldar and Mr. Potato head got frisky and consummated.

Coaches like a Dooley and Butch orange dog, 6-3 opportunity is nowhere seminar.

 

[gtin723]

Don't forget that stupid on sides kick off, what a stupid call. If Pruitt wants to be aggressive then start a freshman and throw the ball down the field from the start, don't wait until you are down by 4 TD and in the 4th Q, just makes me sick to watch this mess. Play calling sucks too.

 

[KeyVol14]

I 100 percent agree. Undisciplined and unmotivated and the lack of a qb in year 3 is inexcusable.

 

[VolArmy74]

Oh ok.

4 games on the job is probably a tad early to judge a guy with a proven history of turning programs around.

Yep. Didn’t take long for the SEC to adjust.

 

[GoBigOrangeUT]

What’s hilarious is that Schiano came right out of the gate and beat Michigan State. They are an absolute **** program and he already has them playing up. I’m still waiting for Pruitt to get his team up and playing above their potential and it’s been three years.

I am not sure you have been paying full attention to what has been happening so i'll explain it to you in the calmest way I know how...Ahem....ITS ALREADY A FREAKING DISASTER!!!!!...We have been blown out 3 straight games and one of them was by Kentucky...KENTUCKY!!!!!...My god man how much worse can it get before someone realizes this school doesn't care about wins and losses but making that money.

Also too early to proclaim his excellence. I’m wait and see on him.
