Anybody paying ANY attention whatsoever has to be incredibly discouraged. We’re in another 3 year process of firing the current head coach who clearly can’t get it done here...just a matter of time. Team can’t block, tackle, throw, catch or run and the attitude/culture around the program is ish. There’s zero reason for any optimism going forward. Next year will be every bit as bad as this year if not worse.
Sad but true.

In case it’s not the guy from Family Matters...there’s a former All-SEC OL who played 14 years in NFL.
True. He was a great player and now a good judge. Still his impression of our HC and staff is nothing earth shattering. I would bet a majority of Vol fans already felt that way weeks ago.

I am ignoring Missouri and Vandy games from an X&O's coaching perspective. More worried about ability to motivate and get buy in.
I absolutely believe a number of players quit on the season because 1) they wanted to go home and chill, not play a bowl. 2) they didnt buy in. Being told during the season that they sucked and that Pruitt would go out and get better likely didnt help.
There are a number of damning "reports" of lack of caring and motivation amongst members of the team, even dating back to prior to the past 2 games. See Crouch's thread on his comments. That speaks in part to the coaches' ability to motivate. It also speaks to the "culture" problem that has gone on for a few years now.

Been saying this for a while. Next year will be worse. Especially if there is a significant exodus that many are predicting. We will be starting new and younger players with little SEC experience. Pruitt should have done a better job of developing what he has instead of running people off. If he does not understand that then we hired the wrong coach.

It'a amazing. I've seen several of your comments about Pruitt through multiple threads. And everything you've said..................is...................wrong. Everything. Is. Wrong. You have no clue what you're talking about. Probably better to stop criticizing at this point.

Waiting for your factual reply.

I agree... Obviously not calling for a firing but I thought this was a bad hire and certainly haven’t been convinced otherwise in year one.

I’m fairly certain we’ll be in the middle of another coaching search 2 years from now. Hope I’m wrong...

I would disagree. In my opinion, and the opinion of former players I've heard and read, I've seen improvement. Last night was hard to watch, but Vandy had a SR QB and was better than us at quite a few positions.

We won zero SEC games last year. This season shouldn't have shocked anyone. How we beat 2 Top 15 teams is more shocking than the last 2 game outcomes.
don't come in here with logic, we have a bunch of posters about to throw themselves off a bridge
