Pruitt vs. The Whiteboard

[martyvols]

I'm just curious, what are your thoughts on CJP kicking the whiteboard? I know, with the horrible showing this is minimal, but I got into a discussion earlier where someone else said, "I liked his passion and the team needs it." However, I believe as the leader of the team he has to show more restraint. Had any of the players done that there would have been a sit down meeting with coaches about representing themselves in a more worthy manner. I know this is trivial in the big picture but I was just curious if I am in the minority. By the way, this is not a bash CJP post, I believe in the long run he will eventually return us to a much better place than we are now.

He needs to focus his frustrations at being a better coach and not allowing his emotions to get the better of him.

My thoughts are "who gives a ****?". Doesn't bother me a single bit.

In practice It wouldn't me neither. On national TV during primetime he looks like an idiot doing it.

 

[theFallGuy]

seriously? we looked like shyt, he should be throwing chairs like Bobby Knight as far as I'm concerned

As long as he throws them at himself and his coaches.

Doesn’t bother me in the least. Football brings out the fire in coaches and players...

Players slam helmets, water bottles...coaches slam clip boards and visors...

Passion is part of the game..

 

[Plecoptera]

I have no problem with kicking the whiteboard. Honestly, I wouldn't have reacted any better if I was in his shoes (probably worse).

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Our fans are soft just like Butch’s players.

Who gives a sh*t about him kicking a white board?

Weak a** argument.

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

As long as he throws them at himself and his coaches.

Agreed.

 

[MEDVOL]

No problem with it. At least he wants to win and he shows it.

He’s not used to losing,same insanity is effecting half the country as well..

True snowflake question.

Then he needs to do something about it.

Bless your heart.
Maybe he should run up draw a heart on the board, then go to each "player"( I use the term loosely) give them a hug and tell them how good they are doing...

if our fans can't handle a coach kicking a white board they might want to follow a softer sport like water polo

Maybe there's a soccer magazine hidden under his bed...

 

[G8rh8r]

He was frustrated. He kicked a board. Who cares? If he stood by without saying a word, we would all be complaining that he had no fire.

 

[FLVOL69]

Aight

 

[Pacer92]

You can’t polish a turd...

Hey! It's not like he can pull his hair out instead.

Until fans stand behind tough coaching some in the program will find a sect of the base who will listen to the soft players. This team needs a kick in the ass. A team is only as strong as it’s weakest link and we have multiple weak links. They can get on the bus or hit the road as far as Im concerned. I honestly cant find a single player that I root for on this team other than Banks. They need to decide their days of sucking are over!

 

[vavolfan6]

I LOVED IT!!!!! If the players were missing assignments and not following instruction, then they needed to wake up. We don't know what the conversation was, what exactly set Pruitt off, or any of the inside details. But, part of coaching is firing off on players when it is necessary, and considering we looked abysmal from the first snap he was probably justified in being upset.

I don't see what is wrong? These players need fire, passion, and to be accountable when they aren't playing up to par. The last coaching staff just let it be. This one is trying desperately to get them to play tough and then the fans are upset....? don't get it.

 

[shocka2430]

I just hope next time he puts his foot through it or snaps it over his head. At least somebody out there had some fire in their belly.

He is..... it’s called recruiting
