Thoughts on the game

This is what we get for keeping Kiffin 1 year too long.

This ^ infinity.

This is what we get for keeping Kiffin 1 year too long.

Acting like Kiffin did more damage to the program in one year than Failmer did in 10 is just retarded. Several of the underclassmen that Dooley has played the first 2 games were recruited to UT by Kiffin (Jackson, Gordon, Teague, James, etc).

Can someone please post the stats from the game last night, thanks

We'd have a full roster and a much stronger and deeper team today without the Hambone Experiment.

:no:

The only way Phil keeps a roster full is if he gets academic requirements reduced so the geniuses he recruited can stay in school. He'd also have to really ignore discipline.

Look how great our seniors, juniors, and redshirt sophomores are. Then, imagine an entire team with that talent. That's where we'd be with Fulmer.

even though we lost that game was really fun alot of drama and that tstorm

THOUGHTS AFTER THE GAME...
1. Poole looked good when the Offensive Line was pushing and coming off the line well.
2. Defense was gassed in the second half.
3. Simms still needs some work but has some big play capabilities.
4. Oku seems like he is always a missed tackle away from breaking it again.
5. Cunningham and Lincoln look much better this season.
6. Coaching was good. I think their adjustments and realization will be better and more focused this week.
7. Both Lines and Backs played well in first half.
8. The Freshman stepped up just. They just have a steep learning curve.
9. Dooley is the man. I liked that he was mad about their second half performance.
10. Wilcox has some aggressive schemes as long as the defense has fresh legs.


I like that they are thinking about more rotation of players. This helps us in many ways. 1. Depth 2. Experience 3. Fresh legs when you need them

That is probably the best we can ask for going forward. I like that we have a fire in our belly. Let's see if we dust our britches off now and get back up for the next fight. GO VOLS!!!!!!!

Not even.

It would be a much stronger team today. Much deeper, much stronger.

So stop questioning his heart. He's a true freshman. This is the way true freshmen look.

Amen!

Based on what? The awesome DT depth we had in 2006?

It's no accident Kiffin and Dooley's players are contributing so much, even though they are the youngest players on the team.

And younger Fulmer players would be starting / contributing. That's college football.

We would have much greater DLine and OLine depth.

We would have a legit / mobile QB starting (probably the most important ingredient - although I think Simms will manage).

I suspect we would have 85 scholarship players.

It's no accident we have no depth. It's called three coaches in three years.

We haven't had a better than average QB since Casey Clausen.

Putting Bray in right now? not sure.
Simms isn't the answer, well right now he is.

Standard VN answer to your post:
1. #2, #3 and maybe #7 prove you are not a real Vol fan.
2. #5 suggests you were not a real Vol fan last year.
3. #8 shows you have no confidence in the freshmen players on this team.

Please turn in your tickets to any remaining games that may be in your possession.

The only reason I'm saying these things is because inevitably your faithfulness to this team will be questioned by one of the the psychos on VN and I'm just beating them to the punch.

My personal response: Most of what you said is exactly right.

 

[The Ron Mexico]

I realize that this is just your opinion, but, Erik Ainge's attempt to interception ratio begs to differ with you. His 2007 season was 2nd best since stats have been kept (min. 275 passes thrown). Also, his career ratio is highest of any UT QB since stats have been kept (min. 275 passes thrown).

I'm just sayin'....

OL was and will always be trash under Adkins. Depth there was irrelevant. Fulmer and company hadn't recruited the DT position well in years.

We have no depth because Fulmer had two recruiting classes that were complete wastes. His last decent class had a 50% attrition rate.
