They deserve someone that isn't a used car salesman to lead them to wins.
I'm tired of our players making enormous efforts and all we remember is the loss. It's not Tennessee football. It's not what championship teams are like. This is pathetic to keep defending a millionaire who phones it in while we have kids that sacrifice their body to win games only to be pissed on by a coach who is clueless. Open your eyes.
John Kelly should have been all over every sports station after Saturday. But all we heard was Butch this, Butch that. Or the huge play by Justin Martin to get that ball back. No one remembers John Kelly but us. The media and pundits remember Philippe Franks.
In 2016, we should have won the east and saw Dobbs crazy runs, JJ's insane plays he made all year, John Kelly emerging as a leader of this team....but all we heard about is South Carolina, Vanderbilt....Jalen Hurd being an idiot...
In 2016 at A&M, no one remembers Alvin Kamara's 288 total yards from scrimmage and 3 TDs in that game. Which should have been replayed on every station on repeat all night long....they remember pissing a game away on stupid decisions by our coach.
In 2015, the Florida game, Josh Dobbs led the team in passing, rushing and receiving yards!!! But NO ONE remembers that because the game was a botched loss.
In 2015, Oklahoma, we should have been celebrating Todd Kelly's two HUGE interceptions of Baker Mayfield to help us win the game and go up 14 points. But all anyone remembers is a blown lead in the 4th qtr.
I do not care about recruiting classes falling apart at this point. Butch does nothing with the elite talents he has now. Tyler Byrd has barely seen a snap. Shaq Wiggins has played well everywhere he's been, SEC freshman awards, all-ACC CB who almost won the Clemson game for Louisville last year on a huge interception, suddenly can't make a start even against Indiana state....but our secondary just lost us a game???????? WHAT PLANET ARE YOU PEOPLE LIVING ON????
