Reveiz On CDD

hmmm. really???

how to compete in this league??


we are 0-5 in this league for the first time since .. well I don't know when. I went and looked at our records from back in the day and I can't find a record of us EVER being 0-5 in the conference. I'm NOT saying CDD is a failure, but so far, we have not been able to win in the SEC . Maybe we can get that done THIS weekend.

He said "compete" not win. I think it's obvious in the first half of games we have both the schemes and ability to "compete." Our youth/inexperience and lack of depth just keep rearing their ugly heads after halftime.

The second half adjustments have impressed me as well. The discipline the linebackers and DEs played with in the second half vs. Oregon is what made me realize we had an elite staff on our hands.

Wilcox could have made 1000 adjustments in the second half of that game and it wouldn'thave made any difference. What part of "lack of depth" do you not understand at this point?

It's good you can point to specific examples. I, on the other hand, cannot remember specifically what evidence pointed at you being a USC troll...but I still remember you being one.

LSU 16, Tennessee 14
Georgia 41, Tennessee 14
Alabama 41, Tennessee 10

Got it.

Spurrier's best SC team, playing at SC, rebuilding Vols with as many as 8 true freshmen on the field at same time, score was 24-24 in 4th quarter. But you don't think we are being competitive in the SEC? Wow.

Least talent we've had in a while, no depth, etc.

There's a lot of factors in play that you are apparently ignoring.

That wasn't his point,the factors. He said we're not competing in the SEC. We are NOT! Worst team in UT history as far as the SEC is concerned. What the players and coaches say mean nothing if they don't back it up.

I expected Reveiz to say something bad about CDD when asked. JMO IMHO IMO.

So is Nick lying? He didn't have to say anything, did he? Was someone holding a family member hostage unless he made a positive comment?

Why are you so determined to spin everything negative pertaining to the new staff?

I know you are still pining for Kiffin... but just face it, he doesn't love you anymore. He never really did. He was just using you until he could get the one he really wanted.

You might need to do some further research my friend. The 1988 vols only played 11 games, but started 0-6. They were 0-4 in the SEC before beating Memphis and then running the table the rest of the way. This team has lost to every team that it should have this year, and beat every team it should have to this point, almost pulling out an LSU win that in hindsight would have been a huge win. This team needs to run the table to gain momentum, but UK and Ole Miss are no locks, hell with this team, no game is a lock, but they have the ability to run the table. Go Vols!

I'm not the one who claimed it was fact we've improved each week. I was just pointing out that it was blatantly false.

Because Kiffin isn't here, I must proclaim that I believe our 20-26 coach is some wizard, even though his winning percentage vs. BCS teams is .100 and he has shown no ability to make 2nd Half Adjustments. Got it. :good!:

Then you must have loved the gameplan and adjustments the "elite" USC staff made as they were getting owned by Oregon also, right?

Key difference: UT doesn't have a full roster. UT's talent and depth are depleted. Based on avg stars, EVERY single player on USC's team was part of a top 2 recruiting class... ALL OF THEM.

So while you pine for that "elite" staff UT used to have, the rest of us can keep watching the current staff try to pull the pieces together.

If you knew the first thing about football or team building in general, you would know that progress fixing things is always made BEFORE the pieces start to come together or results can be measured.

I agree with most of this. USC is definitely more talented, but I'm pretty sure they don't have a full roster either. To me, the real evaluation process on Dooley and the staff can begin this week and the rest of the season because we are now playing winnable games.

No. You just need to stop your constant carping and join the rest of us as we collect the facts and allow the process to play out before condemning Dooley as a failure.

Again, your ignorance shines through. EVEN if you have a deep, experienced team it is difficult to make half time adjustments until they know the new system and playbook. A team has to have a good grip on the playbook to include executing those plays in real action before you can make adjustments. In short, a lack of experience shows up nowhere more than in a teams ability to adjust.

In time, we may learn that this staff is as bad at half time adjustments as Chavis and Fulmer were. But your accusation is the same as saying that someone has shown "no ability to ride a bicycle" when the bicycle is missing both wheels, the chain, and the handlebars.

I agree... and so does Dooley. He made a comment that this particular team's legacy would be built in November.

I don't believe USC's staff is elite on gameday by any means, especially when it comes to their defensive position coaches' ability to gameplan. It's pretty bad actually. Would I take their staff over ours in whole? Without question. Their staff as it is currently structured is far from elite though.

I wish more of our fans looked at this team the way an 18 year old kid from Michigan did last night. I don't have the exact quote but he said something like they have 5 or 6 freshman on the offense and they're going to be really good in a few years. If he red shirts he will come in as a freshman when all those guys who are freshman now are Juniors and will be awesome.

The future is bright guys. We're gonna need shades!

Most people on this board don't know as much about football as an 18 year old kid from Michigan.

First, I appreciate the positivity of your post...but in all of your searching, Did you find anywhere that FOUR of our first five SEC foes were ranked Top 10 by at least one, if not all of the major polls???

And by the way...I do think we GET IT DONE this week!!!!...:dance2:

Dude you are so close to leaving the darkside. Just go towards the light man. You've already taken the first step in saying they're staff sucks. Now take step two and realize Arnett picked us over Lane and went on the record as saying if Lane was our coach he would not have come. This is now the second receiver to say this since Rogers did last year. Not some 3 star receiver. Number 6 in the country. Take the final step man. Bagget is awesome. Wilcox is going to only get better. The staff is pretty good.

On a side note, my beef with Chaney is he is a very throw happy OC. Simms is not the QB and I wish the gameplan had of been less around Simms. But once Bray and the WR's get up to speed Chaney's style will be really fun to watch.

Defensive position coaches don't gameplan. DC's gameplan. They may take input but the plans and adjustments are their decision.

I wouldn't. You have interacted with me enough to know that I don't make rash judgments.

I don't know that DD and staff will succeed. I am convinced that the last staff would have disappointed us with results before bailing out regardless of when they left... and have no question, UT was a resume builder for CLK and nothing more. I am further convinced that they would have left UT with significant NCAA problems.

Their staff as it is currently structured is far from elite though.

What on earth are you talking about? Their defense is absolutely LOADED with talent. They have Monte, O, Garza, and Barry who was an LB coach and DC in the NFL.

Exactly what restructuring needs to be done?
