Things that are so “Tennessee”

[Vfl2407]

I’ll name a few.
Feel free to add to my list.

1. Bringing in a transfer QB - but one that can’t play until the following year.
2. Recruiting guys like Maurer & Shrout who (we are told) are nowhere near JG’s level. Wasted scholarships?
3. Not realizing until 2 weeks before the season starts that a starting LB (Bituli) needs some clean up surgery.
4. Starting alcohol sales against an opponent that brings a lot of fans that cant drink alcohol.

 

[YankeeVol]

Losing in every way possible.

 

[BigBadVol]

We are the Bad News Bears of football. I’ve never seen so many comedy of errors from a team over the last few years. I no longer have any expectations for this program. I guess that’s why loses no longer bother me.

2. Who’s saying Maurer and Shrout are nowhere near JG’s level? On what basis? IMO that’s FAKE NEWS. We won’t know for sure until they play. How much worse can they be?

 

[EconVol92]

Loses always bother me when I know we had more talented players at almost every position than the other team. However, I do not allow college football to run my life or ruin any day of my life.

We have been on top before and there is no reason why we can’t be again, it will just take patience and time and I agree that both should be limited, but I’m not at that limit yet and will still support coach Pruitt for the time being.

In my opinion we have to give him 4 years to put his team in place at the very least. He has a fire in him that I like and I can’t say that about our two prior coaches.

I could be in the minority here, but it is where I am.

Waiting until your AD has a proven coach on the line to fire him, so you can torpedo that deal to hire an unproven idiot from Alabama is the most Tennessee thing I can think of in recent history.

Getting punted in the nuts repeatedly since 01

Preach on Brother. We know from watching that JG is not ready.

 

[VOLinAL]

Leading an opponent in the 4th with under a minute to go with them having no timeouts and still knowing youre going to lose.

Bringing back the guy that was fired for always playing it too safe and not keeping up with the times...and letting him choose the next coach

 

[JoAllan]

Getting beat down by a midget program........pure Tennessee

 

[jonnon111]

Letting the receiver behind you when that's the only thing you can't do.

 

[I40flyer]

Having the Largest SUNSHINE PUMPING club in America, in fact, they may even start their own marching band-for those that can't play an instrument, they'll have bubble blowing equipment......

I would add: a proud, loyal, passionate and loud as h*ll fan base that is ravenous for success and can’t see a path to it.

Allowing a long pass when we are right at the finish line for the win

 

[IPleadInsanity]

Replace your 800 win head coach with a 30 win head coach, twice. When that fails, and the program is dying, you hire a coach with zero wins.

 

[joevol33]

Always getting burned on 3rd and long

GBO!!

 

[ptclaus98]

Playing an OOC schedule with no P5 teams for the first time in 20 or so years and having the worst season in school history. Two weeks into September.

Or how about having your under appreciated tight end go to Georgia and be their leading receiver.
