We are a young team this is a rebuilding year

[Simpleminded]

I wish they wouldn’t say that anymore. It’s been repeated 20 years now. I had wanted Kiffin to come back just because he is offensive minded. Of course USC fired him. A leader is needed and maybe upstream from JP. I usually get everything wrong though.

We’ve been rebuilding for 15 years , we’re the youngest/oldest team I’ve ever seen lol

 

[SmokeyDog1973]

There should be no excuses after your third season as coach and the team is worse the majority of your recruits are playing now. Remember we fired Dooley after his third season pandemic or not why can’t we fire Beldar?

 

[JMSqb11]

One of the biggest issues for this year’s team is we simply have no alpha. Jennings literally challenged every player on the team last year countless times every single week.

We all thought year 2 with same OC would inspire JG to become a leader but we never once had any energy from the first game this season.

Not having a voice or guy who challenged everyone is not coachable and a player has to take charge and be that person. Couple losing Jennings and some of the coaching staff decisions this year and it’s a recipe for disaster

No, but part of a Coach’s job in recruiting is to look for young men with leadership qualities just as much as you look for physical abilities. Pruitt has had three classes. If no one in those three classes is stepping up as a leader, that is at least partly on Pruitt

That is Fulmer's go to excuse.

What????
We returned one of the most experienced rosters in the conference this year.

Come on bro...

 

[N.ohio vol]

Dooley said it butch said it now pruitt says it. I guess we're always going to be young. But our qb is very old lol.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

I feel like I’ve heard this excuse before

 

[WestTnVFL971]

We are the Benjamin Button football team.

Literally returned more starters than anyone

 

[chattavol420]

I think we have one of the older teams in the conference. We brought back almost everyone. And Pruitt choose to give almost all the qb reps to a guy that’s almost eligible for Medicare. I guess he though JG would eventually because a solid player with more reps.

 

[BP4Prez]

Young? We have started a 5th year senior at QB. 6th year senior at center. Two seniors at guard. A senior at tackle. A sophomore at the other tackle. 2 seniors at receiver (Johnson and Palmer). A senior and sophomore at RB.

We returned more starters than any other SEC team. Stop the excuses.

Coaching dysfunction is killing this program. Until that is solved everything else is mute.

Mullen has had the same amount of time at Florida. He's got his team in the SEC title game, we are still rebuilding.

Were close! Add another 7 wins next year and we're right there.

 

[JohnWardForever]

This Chet Ain't Working! I have no confidence in this experiment Ever working! Clean House; or repeat cycle. We are a JOKE.

 

[ThreatLevelOrange]

I’m going with option B. We haven’t replaced several big time players and leaders from last year. But we have tons of starting experience at QB, RB, WR, DL, and DB. Young isn’t how I’d describe it.

 

[james_govols]

We have a lot of seniors starting on offense.

Which is weird because I remember Pruitt saying on national TV his first season that he just needed a couple recruiting classes.

How is it possible that he has had some recruiting classes and is still playing so many Butch players?

True....but the worse indictment is Arkansas. Destroyed program....first year coach
