Do you not think the politicians had pressure from vol football fans????Those 50 or so people who gathered on shiano Sunday had no say so in what was going on, Hubbs said so himself this morning. It was the politicians and higher ups around the university that rejected the hire. It was cute though I guess.
Yeah, need a more reliable source. Like a bunch irrational, deranged keyboard cowboys who have all the answers to stuff they don’t understand. But any reasonable person understands that if you repeat insane pipe dreams enough times they will come true.I don't listen to 20 year-olds about any other weighty issue...I certainly can't say why I would take into account their short term thoughts on the guy that coaches their football team.
I would have for sure...but you can't know the details of every situation. I'm glad he did, but as a parent there would have been a multitude of red flags for me.I was surprised Salters parents didn't try to get him to wait before signing...
The way Pruitt has handled the QB's is a shame...if my kid was a high ranked 5/4 star looking at UT earlier...I'd want to take a wait and see at least until Feb...
Yeah you can't know every details...I'm not even counting the violations that are being talked about...simply the way he's handled the QB's..I would have for sure...but you can't know the details of every situation. I'm glad he did, but as a parent there would have been a multitude of red flags for me.
No, I just listen to you and PVF. You college sports experts have all the information that is fit to print.Yeah, need a more reliable source. Like a bunch irrational, deranged keyboard cowboys who have all the answers to stuff they don’t understand. But any reasonable person understands that if you repeat insane pipe dreams enough times they will come true.
I feel like this isn’t much of a rumor. Most pretty much figured it’s him or Bailey, and one of the two would enter the portal. If it’s true Shrout is going, then I would take that as the coaches have made it clear Bailey is the future unless the kid from Texas comes in and lights it up during the spring.
Now if they both enter, that’s a different story and I’d be more worried.
Agree. However, I wished you would have caveated your #1 point with, 16-19, and of those 16 wins only the Auburn victory was of significance. Haven't even sniffed FL, GA or Bama. Over the last three years we only avg. 14pts against Florida, 15 pts against UGA, and 17 pts against 'Bama and if we are to be honest, many points scored in these games were garbage points against the second teams.Nega vol and sunshine pumper are thrown around in this form ridiculously, imo.
At one time or another we have all been guilty of both. After all, we are all vol fans or we would of left years ago.
Truth is in 3 areas, imo.
#1 W’s and L’s Pruitt is 16-19, enough said there.
#2 The numbers. Record for double digit losses, plus the fact we rank no so well in most team statistics.
#3 The EYE test. Our players are making too many dumb mistakes and the development is not there.
So, who is responsible for ALL of this?
Fulmer and Pruitt.
Fulmer for hiring an unproven HEAD football coach.
Pruitt for not being able to communicate, for whatever reason, what it takes to have a consistent, winning program. Be it communication problem between him and coaches (remember Dline coaching fiasco) or the players.
We all, deep down, wanted JG to succeed. Didn’t happen. Wasted a lot of time there that could of been we’ll served on others. This was pointed out earlier in the season by many.
Pruitt, has had opportunities just like every other coach in the NCAA and we know what the results are.
Time to cut our losses and move forward.
Also, for those who think we shouldn’t be making coaching changes that often, Alabama went through a few before they landed the right one, Saban, and we all know how that turned out.....
