The Official Tennessee @ Vanderbilt Game Thread, 4:00 PM ET, SEC Network

[CAVPUT]

How the hell does this staff keep Shrout on the bench all damned season? Any idiot can take one look and see the arm talent. What a waste. He deserves to be fired for this reason alone.

 

[JCHateSteve]

Shrout may be a better portion than Bailey, right now. Hard to say for sure against this team though.

 

[BeardedVol]

JT has a gun. Just baffled at Pruitt’s idiocy in sticking with Guaranturnover

A competent coach starts Shrout, and preps Bailey as the backup.

 

[joevol33]

We are playing great and with purpose at this point

Saving the coaches job!

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

What a Cannon. And this kid was in moth balls all year with Johnny Pick Six at the helm?

 

[JustinVol]

Save by to Bailey. His body language is reading 100000 fed up

 

[UTK]

5-5 minimum with anyone not named jg starting

Nah defense still don't know what a slant is

 

[RDU VOL#14]

The TVA.

It all went to hell after commercial/hype video.

On a good note that’s a catch and run for the td

 

[ButchPlz]

5-5 minimum with anyone not named jg starting

I agree. I think we would have whupped Kentucky and Arkansas with a different QB.

 

[Orange931]

Shrout does have a cannon.

Why did he not play this year?

Because JG was our best chance to win.....

 

[C-south]

In not anti-Shrout. But Bailey didn’t do anything wrong. It just doesn’t make any freaking sense.

He didn’t do anything wrong but Shrout has definitely looked better.

 

[Lloyd_Christmas]

FYI...that slant route was open on multiple third downs against UF and instead Chaney had the slot running down the field.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

In not anti-Shrout. But Bailey didn’t do anything wrong. It just doesn’t make any freaking sense.

Literally nothing this coaching staff does makes sense.

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

Someone needs to take a roll of duct tape to these guys on the UT sidelines with their damned masks.

It is not that hard to figure out.

Guarantano has his like a chin strap.

Wear it or don't wear it.

 

[chad954ut]

I'm going to step out here and say Shrout doesn't start the second half

 

[Megatron88]

Bailey can transfer now. We have found our future.

It's inevitable at this point IMO

 

[djohnnyg]

I think we have a chance of winning this game. Yippee.

 

[Steve_Smith89]

“Stupid” apparently equals not getting as worked up about who the head football coach of Tennessee is because it’s not even close to the biggest problems in my day to day life.

I’m convinced that the majority of Tennessee “fans” must have had a great 2020 because even in a world pandemic that wrecked
People’s health and businesses and livelihoods, Tennessee fans weren’t impacted and Big Jerm Pruitt is still the top day to day problem for folks.

Truly an envious situation to be in

This dude can't coach. He has zero idea of how to run an offense. It's pathetic and embarrassing watching our scheme on offense. I don't understand what you are trying to argue here

 

[GetEmVols]

Bailey can transfer now. We have found our future.

nice try

 

[utvolpj]

Another game showing that the qb giving us the best chance to win was absolutely not playing

 

[VFL28]

Both of these QB’s are better than JG. Cornbread probably banging his head rn.

 

[JMSqb11]

Is that why you spend all of your time on here attempting to defend Pruitt, because you are emotionally detached from the head coach?

Imagine thinking that the thought process of “Pruitt isn’t gonna get fired because Boosters aren’t gonna put up 25 million dollars to fire and hire a coaching staff when the Athletic Department has a 40-50 million dollar shortfall” is somehow code for “defending Pruitt”

 

[Brysonythevolfan]

HB wasn’t benched. Rotation was in play and announced before the game. We will see HB again. JT is hot.

Exactly, people are calling for pruitts head because he’s doing what he announced before the game

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I still don’t understand why Bailey was pulled. The “fumble” was not his fault nor was it a fumble and he was throwing the ball well. So much for not “destroying a Freshmen’s” confidence like Pruitt said all season.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

I'd be looking for a job if I was the OL coach.

Not if you were best buds with the head coach.
GBO!!
