Result of constant negativity.

Yes, the program all week heard it. No one in Tennessee is talking about anything else. "They suck", "He's gone" "Fire Him now", "4-8", etc

When surrounded by negativity, you will get subpar performance. Corporations spend millions each yr for positive, teambuliding, engagement of their employees. Results show positive influenced people outperform those in a negative, toxic environment. I've been in toxic environments before but I couldn't imagine being in one near as bad as this football program has endured the past week.

The play of the players or coaching of the coaches wasn't the most embarrassing thing about the game today. It was the apathy of the "fans" who quit on this team this week and today. JMO

All that's been on the players minds has been the toxic churn of the sports writers and message boards. Hope they can somehow insulate themselves this week

produces the constant negativity. Butch has been delivering sub par performances long before the negativity crept in.

The problem is Butch has been exposed now on national tv. When the game is big, butch is tight, he cracks under pressure, lacking poise and common sense during critical times in the ballgames.

It is what it is, there's nothing to spin. Personally, I don't want the VOLS to lose one more game this year. Can this be fixed, sure it can...can Butch fix it, I honestly don't know but he's running out of time.

GO VOLS!

Happy for the win.

I would consider it a cheap shot and sheer negativity for negativity's sake if all the criticism was just personal and demeaning insults to CBJ's integrity...

HOWEVER, there is absolutely nothing wrong...or negative...about describing and decrying the putrid and fundamentally unsound performances we are observing on the field in year 5 of CBJ's tenure as Head Coach...

Furthermore, it's NOT a negative thing to conclude after considering the body of work manifested publicly over the last 55 games that CBJ is not sufficiently qualified to coach in the SEC.

It's just one of those hard and undeniable facts of working and being evaluated in the public arena.

And there are actually very few who excel at it...
CBJ is just another one who doesn't...

I don't necessarily like Gene Chizik, but his comments on the SECN after the game were right on target...

It's all about PRODUCTION...Quit trying to explain away what all fans are able to see for themselves on the field with their own eyes...and get it done!

I've seen more than enough to realize that CBJ cannot get it done! :salute:

I'm not an outwardly negative poster, but if you put crap on the field, players or coaches, you're gonna get what you're gonna get.

If Jones is worth half of his salary, he should have the ability to use the fans negative feelings to motivate the players to play. It really boils down to that.

I fully believe the players know how upset the fans are, but it speaks volumes that instead of stepping up and turning heads, they gave up today.

Your asinine if you think they don't jump on here to read. With Twitter, they don't even have to come here.


I would hope we are recruiting players that are mentally tough enough to not let what fans say on a message board affect their level of play.

Bingo and open up the playbook and play.. use it as a motivational tool

Spot on. Blockbuster was totally destroyed by negativity. Had nothing to do with an inferior product and a failure to adapt.

OC usually by halftime figures out what plays to use to attack what a defense is doing. Scott seemed to keep trying to attack with the delayed handoff and run up the middle which certainly were not going to work against that Defensive alignment.

Butch has created the negativity. It's not like people are mad about irrational stuff here. He has underachieved season after season. All the positive thinking in the world can't overcome inability.

Well if they don't want people to say they suck then they need to play better, either play better or concede that people will say you suck as you continue to play horribly

You are correct, our team played poorly today because they read on twitter that @azzwiperzz2134 thinks UT sucks and the coach should be fired.

Result of toxic coach speak...and a coach without Dobbs to bail him out. Could be 4 games in 20 days

You really think the coaches and players and hanging out on message boards all week?

These coaches get PAID they need to be able to handle everything including this message board and ANY negativity.

I have been around many college players and my son played......they don't have time to get mixed up in all the stuff people see on here. Now I am sure they felt the heat of losing to Fla last week, but nothing like what you are thinking. Also most of the fans still love the players, and believe we have some great ones. Most of us want better coaching for them (as well as for us fans).

Geez. Some people could stand in the middle of a driving rain storm and still try to convince you it's not wet. This was UMASS! And we got played off our feet by a team that got rolled by Coastal Carolina! We could've been pumping sunshine all week without one bad word and it wouldn't have changed anything about today. It's not the fan negativity. It's the incompetence of a coaching staff. And it begins and ends with the $4 million man.
