I’ll let him work and see what he can do, of course. I stayed in on Butch way too damn long when it was clear from year 1 that he was a bad coach.

Right now Heupel has a few positives to pull but his team is undisciplined, he started the wrong QB, didn’t challenge in the Pitt game among a few other questionable coaching decisions. Not saying he’s crap but I am saying it doesn’t look great early.

Butch was not clear in year 1. That was his best coaching job. Beat a top 11 team and should have beaten UGA. Masterful offensive game plan. Terrible roster.

It was probably clear in year 3 that it wasn't working.

Pub subs are one of the greatest things about the state of Florida lol, chicken tender sub tossed in buffalo sauce loaded and toasted is fire. Publix deli is usually 10 people deep around lunch time everywhere you go in south Florida.

Also, the landscape in college football has changed so much. It gives us additional data points to measure competency. We don't necessarily need to wait until year 2 or 3 results on the field. If Hype is the guy you'll continue to see success in flipping this roster through the Portal and recruit guys that fit his system.

My early thought was this team may be the deepest in terms of depth, and the next two or three years may be worse than this one. However, they success they've had in the portal already, and the relationships they're building give me hope that the roster reconstruction may go at an expedited pace. I'm still willing to wait until year 4 before casting final judgement on CJH, but I for one am impressed with what they've been able to accomplish in a very short period of time.

As an aside, if Butch would've had the portal, do those 8 wins teams turn into 10 win teams, and he still walking the sideline in Neyland?

Wouldn’t have negated his bad S&C moves or incompetent coaching hires…that’s what sunk him.

On this note he is doing better than all of our LBs….

Everyone outside of Jeremy Banks sucks. I just looked up all of their stats and they are awful.

Juwan Mitchell only has 1 solo tackle…. 1….

Yep. Our biggest weakness is LB and pass rush. We have to sign/get transfers from 3-4 ILB.

Also, Balyen Buchanan is another one we lost who is playing really well at LA Tech.

I’ll take Theo over him. Secondary is just fine. Even think we are good next year with the young talent. Linebacker and pass rush needs immediate help.

I didn’t think he would be great but at least serviceable…. He has not even been close to average.

What’s funny is he was talking trash to Banks in practice about how the LBs sucked (Banks told him he wouldn’t even of played last year) and Mitchell proceeds to continue sucking

You should qualify this though. Mitchell has only played in 2 of 4 games.

But yeah everyone was pretty rough on Crouch, and his stats at MSU are better than any other UT LB (even Henry T at Bama). So maybe it was more coaching than player...since we're also seeing Banks showing out with better coaching.
