And I don’t see why 2-10 should be any different. That’s the sad part. Fans should be disgusted by the product on the field.

I am.... But ultimately I’d rather Pruitt turn it around and start winning. Nothing I saw Saturday tells my that WILL happen but it’s what I would prefer to happen.

With one of our “guaranteed” wins now a L, what do you want to happen next? Would finishing 2-10/3-9/4-8 actually be more entertaining than just losing out and watching the place burn? Answer honestly...I’m trying to figure out if I’m being irrational lol.

Would love to see us finish 6-6, but it sure looks like it will be 2-10, unless a miracle happens!

Win out, of course.

Pretty obvious that any real Vol fan would want that.

I’m ripping CJP as hard as anybody, but the best-case scenario is still for him to succeed long term. I hope he finishes 11-1. I think 3-9 is more likely, but I hope he fights the ship.

I think its fair for those who want him gone today, that was the very definition of a game that cannot be lost. Period.

However, I'm in the camp of it was just too bad to be real. Aberration isn't even close to what that was. Ive got to wait and see what happens with BYU before I throw in the towel. The towel is within my reach.

I don't care about what anybody says, losing this week is not what needs to happen for any reason.

I want this to get headed in the right direction, another coaching search does not appeal to me in the least. I want the players to start having some pride like we did back in the day, I know if I'd lost to a team like gsu I would've been ashamed to go out in public. Have some pride and respect for yourself and your team don't settle for getting whooped by a guy half your size and by a team with half the talent. Call teammates out for slacking instead of following suit, be leaders not followers. End of my rant played for a long time and coach now, I can't stand seeing half assed effort and that's all it was Saturday

Short term me, always wants Tennessee to win, even with Dooley and Jones.

Long term me, wants Tennessee to win by losing, lose this coach; this time get somebody that can earn his keep and rebuild from the ashes of this 10+ year dumpster fire.

Why prolong the inevitable?

We keep setting records of the wrong kind.

First season 4-6 and lose all SEC games.

Lose 3 in a row to Vandy and 5 of the last 7. To Vanderbilt. Let that sink in. We can't even win our own state.

First time losing to a 2-10 Sunbelt team at home when you are a 26 point favorite.

To not have your team ready to play for your season opening against a patsy you paid $950K to come to Knoxville and then get beat by them, not just lose but get beat, is the coach's doing.

To have your team walking around like soulless zombies instead of giving their "all for Tennessee today", is on the coach. To react like it's just another day and "the sun will come up tomorrow" is, frankly, embarrassing. Pride would not have stood for this happening. It would have shown in the play on the field. This team is a reflection of their head coach. No passion, no desire, seemingly going through the motions to get paid.

Maybe it would have been a display of poor sportsmanship but after this loss, players should have been breaking sh!t. The coach should have looked like he was going to have a stroke. Players should have been apologizing and promising that they will never let that happen again, ever. Instead, crickets. It was sickening watching the opposing team celebrate on our home field like they just won the National Championship.

How much more of this crap do you want to endure? How many more years of excuses do you have in you? We shouldn't have to say "Wait until next year" after the first game. Or in some cases, now, "Wait for five more years to 'rebuild', that's why we can't fire Pruitt."

Do you really think Pruitt is the man to fix this? After Saturday? After his presser? After the end of last season?

Our Administration has invented new ways to screw this program up. And they managed to do it without a NCAA "death penalty." This is the sorriest excuse for a program that I have ever seen. Major changes need to take place and the sooner the better.

We’re supposedly the most obnoxious and demanding fans in the country so let’s live up to that claim. I want a riot on the Hill.

Be very careful what you ask for. You just might get it.

I’d love to see us finish strong and get to a bowl game, which I believe is still possible. After the season, Pruitt gets an offer to go to the NFL as a DC and he takes it (with enough time left for us to find a good coach to replace him).

I voted for a loss. Moments of levity regarding UT football actually cause me pain; give me headaches. Happiness, for this vol football fan, hurts.

I want the Vols to come out angry and hungry, pissed off and well- prepared. I want to them to dominate the trenches. Blow the LDS so far off the line of scrimmage that it nears fulfillment qualifications for their two year mission. I want our new qb, Shrout or Maurer, to play with confidence, hit receivers in stride and make sure the cameramen have to work hard tracking down our all playmakers as they race towards cheggarboards. Make the cameramen's wrist sore. Give em carpal tunnel For God's sake. Not only does the other team get a bye when they play us, the cameramen get the graviest of days when we play. The ball snaps, slow zoom in on guarantano laying in the ground. No panning or wide shots necessary. Make them work, dammit. Make them think it's Blair witch project, or the epic Babylonia crane shot from DW Griffiths's "Intolerance". Epic sweeping panoramic glory, by God.

I wanna see an epic saga. Dammit.

But since none of this will ever, ever happen. I picked option 2. Lose to BYU.

The way I see it, theres only really two real options....it's the crushing loss or a typically lazy discombobulated clueless play until we eke out an uninspiring victory over what should be an overmatched team.

Seen enough of those... just give me the L, the embarrassment, and let's get it all over with. Its more entertaining that way, to be honest. Let's give SEC Shorts more low hanging fruit.

Bonus points...inevitably and at the very least I'll get to see more of Guarantano's patented Chaplin routine, and that always cracks me up. Good ole luckless Tramp.
