My apologizes if you thought I inferred anything about it being stupid that we won. I have no ill-will whatsoever for this young man, as I'm sure he is doing the best he can. And no, I do not believe JG can play the way he has the last 3 years and beat the top teams. He ends way to many drives by not being able to make simple throws to open receivers. I hope he proves me wrong and I'll be the first to say-so but he has to change dramatically. We have slightly different views which is ok and in the end, we are 1-0 as compared to the 0-1.I think it's so stupid that fans accuse folks happy with winning as saying they are satisfied with mediocre and winning the tax slayer bowl. Nobody is happy being mediocre but I'm also not so naive and out of touch that I expect a 3rd year coach who inherited the worst roster in the history of our program to completely turn that bunch into a team that dominates other SEC teams on the road in just 2.1 seasons, especially games where Vegas puts us as only a 3 point favor. I'd love for us to be in that dominating position but we aren't there just yet but I'm happy we are to a point where we win 7 or 8 in a row even when we didn't play our best in 3 or 4 of those games. Sure beats the alternative and really the only thing Pruitt and JG hasn't done is beat one of the 3 main rivals, which I believe could happen this year and you obviously must think it won't with JG at center.
Go Vols!!
