Why are we falling apart

[volmanNC]

There are many fans that just don't get it. They just refuse to acknowledge exactly how bad Botch left this program.

I wouldn't out all the blame on Butch. I think the problems are in several areas. Butch was just one.....

 

[UTK]

The team has a losing mentality.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Against the Gators? I do, but the Gators were top 5 material every one of those years.... they're Exlax right now

So were we.
So are we.

Did you watch the game last week? Those are the type of games that should be 40-0 at half.

That’s what Va Tech fans said today too. How’d that work out?

 

[VolStrom]

My 3 yr old has the sweetest laugh.
She is adorable
My distraction... love her

But our problem is only 100,000 people show up to watch our team.

I can tell you this after watching Bama and the Tennessee kids on Bama, watching LSU in the Tennessee kids on LSU, watching Clemson and the Tennessee kids on Clemson, watching Georgia and Tennessee kids on Georgia. I have to believe we have a recruiting problem not a coaching problem!

 

[NEVolFan]

Would i be wrong to sit on the deck and smoke a cigar and a glass of Jack instead of watching the second half?

Sounds good... we'll holler at you if they make a game of this mess.

 

[UTK]

Only chance we have is if we score QUICK opening drive and force 3 turnovers and at least 2 defensive TDs. in the second half. Period

 

[Carl Pickens]

So were we.
So are we.

It's beyond sad....if this isn't rock bottom I may have to start knitting or paint by numbers on saturdays

 

[HARTUPM]

Because we stuck. The worst O line in the SEC is getting their asses whipped tonight. I had a bad feeling about this matchup, honestly didn't think it would be a close game. I have been saying 3-9 since we played ETSU.

 

[Behr]

Where are all those who jumped all over Jack Burton for warning about peoplr getting their hopes up?

I'm right here, why?

 

[JazzMaster001]

Lack of aggression is alarming. Not many fighters on this team right now.

 

[bigorangecrush89]

I'm right here, why?

You couldn't have been more wrong.

[VolFan4Life87]

Turnovers did us in. That will go down as the OL improves.

The OL hasn’t been touted as ‘serviceable’ since 2013.

Weren’t you one of the people who defended butch?

 

[Foreverorange2]

Not at all if it wasn't raining I would join you

 

[G8rh8r]

We are at home. I knew 6-6 was it but I'm at a loss for words. I'm not upset just resigned. My son is 11 yrs old. My wifes family is bammers. I just cant keep watching this sh... I dont want to hear fair weather fan crap. This does not make sense. I'm not going to call out players or coaches. I havent had any alcohol YET
I'm just tired of it.

My husband is a bammer. He hasn’t said a word, but he did go buy more beer.

This is What happens after a decade of riding the subpar coaching carousel and the administration being content with the results. When the leadership has an attitude of complacency, this is what you get. I like Pruitt...but every good businessman will tell you garbage rolls uphill, so he needs to take it out. We shall see. I need another beer before this half starts

 

[Behr]

You couldn't have been more wrong.

What was I wrong about?

 

[VOLinAL]

Because we suck.

 

[Carl Pickens]

They just quit.... the whole damn stadium should leave. The D made no attempt to tackle the RB

 

[orangesicle]

This is the worst coached team I have ever seen. What has been going on in practice?

PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!! Who needs freakin' practice?

 

[1200DPI]

Doug Mathews will put a positive spin on the game tomorrow. Gotta support his buddy Fulmer.

The program will be better some day. Too many resources are being spent for it to languish for too much longer.

I heard the same lame excuse when Butch came in.
