The Official Tennessee vs. Florida Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[SLICKYINC]

Damn Jeremy. Your team sucks. Good luck in recruiting

Maybe some guys will feel sorry him...

 

[7maxims]

Could've hired a real coach like Neil Brown from Troy

 

[IhateGA]

Anyone else live in Florida... gotta hear about this for another year... ?

Cue yet another beer opening sound effect...

I live in Georgia, as bad as this is, next week is gonna be even worse.

 

[Dergibvol]

Florida looks like they have some potential. For Tennessee, where is the fourth win going to come from?

Three wins four wins. Who cares. Floridas potential was shown the door by kentucky

 

[volglass]

There is no way you can blame Pruitt for this bs. He has tried everything to put the game in the players hands and they shat the bed every time. Not one single player is stepping up. Defense actually looks good

 

[mudhen]

Pruitt is gonna light up some azz at half time.

A lot of good that will do. All that these guys have been hearing is that they are Butch's boys and Pruitt needs time to recruit his own players. That's a real motivator.

 

[maotai]

I believe that’s the worst half of UT football I’ve seen in 47 years

This has been Dooley second half bad.

 

[Doberman]

Mullen or Pruitt.......hmmmm

 

[508mikey]

demote Pruitt and let Fulmer take over

 

[Freak]

wont matter

Best hope at this point is that we come out with some pride in the second half and show some fight for the rest of the game.

 

[casetopia]

Get schiano on the horn stat.

 

[The Original Fade]

Great showing for all the recruits in attendance, too. Geez.

Early playing time?

 

[CPVOL]

Mullen is playing not to loose right now. That’s how bad they are.

 

[VOLnMiami]

Neyland will be half empty for the 2nd half....Breaks my heart seeing this.

 

[volcop1]

we will lose 5 games by 50 points

 

[BeardedVol]

Sorry you were hoping for instant improvement from a roster that went 0-8 in league play last year and is in year 1of a new system on both sides of the ball

Florida is trash. You can tell yourself whatever you need to in order to feel good, but we are utterly uncompetitive with a trash team. That's not a sign of improvment over what we saw against WVU in week one.

 

[volfanhill]

When’s basketball season?

 

[Dergibvol]

I live in Georgia, as bad as this is, next week is gonna be even worse.

Just tell them wait until basketball season.

 

[rcrrcr]

Is it time to play the freshman QB?

 

[djohnnyg]

I am totally not in the mood for Pruitt's BS tough guy postgame.

 

[Volswarm]

I love my vols and try to be optimistic but I’m grasping at straws in this game.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Bama's gonna play their second team. Need rest.

Saban may send Hoover High out there - no sense in overkill.

 

[lifeVol]

I was calling for Dooley and Butch in year 3. I’m not ready to throw in towel on Pruitt yet.

Pruitt is obviously used to coaching guys who have at the very least a football instinct and can be coached, apparently, our football instincts have been removed by the previous staff

 

[LittleVol]

Gaurantano is one TOUGH cookie!

 

[MtnManStan]

What can the pitch be to the recruits be? We need you? You can make the difference? We’ll pay you?
