The Official Tennessee @ Arkansas Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, SEC Network

[Cartervol]

This coaching staff is clearly not the answer.

Never was. Another stop gap hire to deliver false hope..

 

[irish1485]

Please just put Bailey in and roll with him.

Thats a great way to kill his confidence. Start him at Vandy, don't set him up to get killed.

 

[DustyRockSolid]

Wow, that’s Pruitt’s reason for not playing Bailey?

Just fire him right now.

I wish to GOD we would fire him after the game.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Remember 3 weeks ago when ppl thought we would compete for the east lolol

Ahh, the good ol’ days.
GBO!!

 

[Betzman]

We're not going to score anymore points. I just knew it.

 

[C-south]

The receivers must never get any separation

Probably but we probably have to keep 8 in to block with our overrated Oline. We are poorly coached plain and simple.

 

[amorange]

Team has quit on the coaches.

This is why PHIL sucks. Id fire this staff on the spot for that alone.

Fire Phil the staff and start over. We're not going to improve any playing these games. Call it a season!

 

[dougvolfan]

Champs of life ....complementary football.......for this is the winning edge

 

[TitanVol82]

The JG haters finally getting what they want. Let’s all enjoy

I’d rather lose with the waterboy instead of jg at this point

 

[GoBigOrangeUT]

I think instead of giving speeches at halftime, Pruitt just goes around chugging beers and crushing cans on JGs head.

 

[CaliVol2009]

Pruitt and Chaney.

Omg, just spit out my drink.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

All you Maurer sheep can now shut the he!! up

Baaaaabaaaaa

 

[cgrish]

He's gotten 4 passes in this season and gets trotted out on the road vs a team that has seized all momentum. Give him more time to get into a groove of some kind.

Oh my, give the young man a chance, two weeks have been spent prep. jg to play, and the game plan for was jg, not Maurer. Maurer was not prepped for this game. So you can't tell what he can do until he is prepped for the game he is playing in.

 

[Ten_Titans]

I'm sure watching Beavis and Butthead play QB while Pruitt tells him he is nowhere near on their level is doing wonders for HB's development. Pruitt is a moron.

 

[JoAllan]

Penix would not have played well here.

And BM is?

Brian is riding the bench......or comes in to hand off. Penix can play....is better than these guys, and while Tennessee gets smoked at home by KY he can beat ranked teams.

I understand it’s a different system, and different development staff......but it’s easy to see Penix was a MUCH better option.

 

[joevol33]

1st half shut out...
3rd quarter outscored 24-0

Sorry but there is a pattern of getting worse after the half that has to go on the coaches.

Pruitt has well proven he's not a head coach. Heck, fulmer screwed the pooch giving him an extension.

 

[BreatheUT]

JG has gotten, and still gets, all of the first team reps every week, why is anyone surprised that Maurer isn't lighting anyone up out there?

This and every time someone else gets in for valuable snaps we are losing and the other team has all the momentum.

 

[landscapingvol]

Imagine getting out scored by Arkansas 24-0 in one quarter

Oh wait, IT JUST HAPPENED

You have no idea how great Pruitt is, he coached under Saban and has a southern accent

 

[IndianaVol]

Folks I selfishly posted about JG getting hurt earlier...in no fashion did I mean that but really hope Mauer shows out here.

 

[UTK]

Dude we are straight getting our a$$ kicked bad

It's like we think "well we got this, we dominated the first half. Adjustments don't exist so we're good."

 

[kiddiedoc]

Pruitt is a Bammer plant, paid big bucks to tank us. Convince me I'm wrong.

 

[RiverVol]

Pruitt will be fine. He has lots of orange dollar bills with more on the way.

Fire him. Everyone was contracted to put a certain level of product on the field. They all know that. They know what they signed up for.

This is not working out.

Good grief, I hope Maurer gets his focus on and truly gets "in" this game.

 

[volmoon]

Oh great swami...tell me my fortune

Ok. You finally realize that Chaney makes the offensive game plan and calls the plays. There

 

[bpalmer28]

I’ve lost any faith I had in this coaching staff.

Same. Played the optimist for 3 years. I’m done. No excuse. Not even blaming QB. They could’ve had Franks if they wanted. They could’ve groomed Bailey or Maurer. They could be using a power set RIGHT NOW but they are panicking and abandoning the run.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

If this university doesn’t back up the brinks truck for Urban Meyer or Hugh Freeze we are looking at decades in the wilderness.
