Lou Holt’s jr without the success

Three words

bye

bye

Currie won't fire everyone in the middle of the season. If Butch is gone does he name Brady Hoke as interim HC?

 

[ThePriceofGas]

Got it right after the game. Tennessee has the talent just not getting coached.

 

[advancedrescue27]

I blame the cluelessness that was on JG's face at the end of the game on ***** jones.

I deff don't blame JG, or the players. JG can play, when allowed to. We went from mixing the plays up in the start to running exclusively after we got up on them(no surprise there as that's been the MO the last 5 season). Defense did good but got gased and couldn't hold on. Then when down at the end they open it back up on offense. Sometimes it works but it's not favorable.

 

[BDHVOL]

Quick someone get outside the exit gates with some chicken buckets. Maybe they can collect his buyout before tonight.

 

[molsen81]

Currie should make the announcement Monday......but he won’t

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

If there is a more poorly coached program when it comes to time management and red zone offense in the country, I don't know who it is.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Can we send Lyle packing now?

It's a process. He's only really been here 2 years, ya know.

 

[T-for-Tennessee]

This won't be Butch's last game. It might be his least season, but not his last game. And it's a good thing with Alabama next week. That oughta be a hoot.

The Admin and AD don't have the nut sack to fire Butch mid-year.

 

[508mikey]

It was a good call. There was a run/pass option. Carolina covered it well though.

should have looked right and threw left

 

[OldandStillaVol]

Well crap. Bye Butch. JG had a great drive that was close to a game winner. Gutsy performance by him at the end.

Agree. Also defense didn't quit at the end when it would have been understandable to mail it in.

 

[CountVolcula]

....

 

[volfan1631]

If i'm an assistant coach, i'm looking for a new job for next year and fast.

 

[Hedrock65]

Who will watch next week ?

Its like a bad car wreck on the interstate. You know u should not fall victim to the temptation to rubberneck but you just can't help to view the carnage,

 

[Bigorange123]

Well, at least we had smoke chicken tacos for lunch.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Just get him out of Knoxville already.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Actually he compliments Tennessee for their efforts. Talk about twisting the blade! :whatever:

If I owned a coach like Muschamp does Jones, I'd compliment him to hoping he would stay.

 

[molsen81]

Where do you come up with this crap?

The Admin and AD don't have the nut sack to fire Butch mid-year.

This is a very accurate statement.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

I'm gonna make an analogy here and you guys can laugh at me if you want but here goes. My daughter played on a soccer team a few years back and in practice the coach ran drills to perfection. The girls looked flawless in these drills and their skills(ball handling, passing, shooting) were unbelievable. However, the coach never practiced in game situations at all and when the whistle blew in a real game both the coach(who was very knowledgeable about soccer) and the players looked like deer in headlights! IMO the football IQ is high but the in game and understanding the flow of a live game is lacking!
GBO anyway!!

 

[BlackFox]

Like the song says "think I'll do a little, wishful drinkin'".

 

[I4Vols]

Thought I missed the Friday night high school game, but guess I just watched it on ESPN

 

[Tnvols1998]

Keep him one more week. We will get waxed in Tuscaloosa next week. Then the interim has a chance maybe to win out and build momentum going into next year. Man I hate the words next year.

 

[Vol4ever]

Time to call Mothertrucker van lines..... you call....we haul
