Well continue to bitch guys. When we start winning some games just be happy with it. Enjoy the ride. Who am I fooling everyone has already made up their mind. He could win 7 games this year and you all would still bitch. Win 9 and miss the east and you all will bitch next year too. Hell he could win the sec championship the following year but get beat in the playoffs and you all will bitch then too. Some of you all just bitch no matter what. We all have co workers just like you. You all are the loudest in the office and always bitching about something. the majority just goes to work and does their job and every once in a while they make the mistake of thinking they can talk some sense into you.
You mad bro?

Hey hold up, let's be very clear -- this isn't "no matter what" territory. This is "Tennessee lost to Georgia State at HOME and then followed that up by losing to BYU at HOME" territory. That ain't "no matter what" territory.

No. You will see this team get better all year. They will win some they will beat some teams they shouldn’t. We will end up going to a bowl. They will be a lot better next year and by 2021 we should be in the talks for winning the east. Chaney and Pruitt did not forget how to coach. They have to get their rosters built first though. The fans getting behind him as soon as we start showing improvement is crucial though because if he is on the hot seat talks then 5 stars aren’t coming to a school who might make a coaching change.
No.

We could “improve all year” and still not be as good as the teams we are playing.

Also, this implies no other team will improve as the year goes on. Enjoy today’s win, it may be November before we see another one.

Not trying to be rude, but AT THIS POINT, I think the 'bitching' is warranted.

I love the excuses about us losing bc Pruitt doesn’t have his players yet. Our 3rd string is more talented than Georgia state

And, Kansas, who hired an experienced SEC national championship coach who was available and unemployed when we were needing a coach, just beat the heck out of Boston College and is 2-1, against three wins last year.

Who in the bloody heck do you see them beating to get to 6 wins?

Yeah, doesn't mean you're jumping off the Vol train, just because, in many phases, we've had high school level of performance. I get the patience thing, but there's no way we shouldn't be 2-0...which is where everyone's issue is...knowing the schedule coming at us starting next week.

This staff may not have time. Not only are mattresses burning on VN, on his show las night, Scott Farrell talked about the terrible state of the program and that Pruitt should be fired tonight if we lose to 1 and 1 Chattanooga today. DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW IT FEELS TO HEAR IN THE SAME SENTENCE ‘TENNESSEE’ AND ‘CHATTANOOGA’ WITH THE POSSIBILTY WE LOSE! Ugh

You had me up till "serviceable qb"

Yeah if HB comes in next year and has a TL like freshman year and the rest of team just gets better like a domino effect.
This starting with the player that touches the ball every play on offense, then like Dobbs to Butch people will say HB winning us games despite CJP.. My fear is CJP will shy away of starting a Freshman QB first game and defer to experience ala Saban with Tua till the 3rd or 4rh game at least. .

What if I told you we went and hired one of the best defensive coordinators in the game. What if I told you we went and got one of the best offensive coordinators in the game? Imagine having both at the same time. This program is picking up some steam and this fan base needs to buckle up for the ride because we are going to do nothing but get better all year. Do we have the best QB in the SEC? Nope. But what we do have is a QB that can be serviceable if Pruit can get his defense rolling. He has a big problem though. He had to throw true freshmen out their that weren’t ready. He knew the only way he could get them ready for SEC ball is to throw them in the fire. We are young! The talent is getting coached up. We get Bituli back this week who was not only our leading tackler but the QB of this defense. Thompson will probably be back by next week. Once Chaney and Pruitt get full rosters of 4&5 star players they will do what they have always done. WIN. Be patient and enjoy the ride. Wins will come but we are going to have to take the lumps as they come. #GOVOLS!

Asking Pruitt to beat SEC teams with this roster is like asking a golfer to win the masters with half of his clubs missing from the bag including the driver and putter. Not impossible, but highly unlikely. Just a matter of time until he's got his roster with his chosen players.

As for Bituli, he's not full go yet. Might get a few snaps, but I doubt he'll play today. Hoping he's back to help stem the UF beatdown next week. Thompson is out until after the UF game. No way they let him play until the hearing is settled. Just a practice player until the UGA game most likely.
