Wilcox angry

[checkerboard03]

So is it sportscenter or xbox?

From his post, I'd guess he's saying the Xbox football mentality is mostly synonymous with a focus on highlight reel hits over fundamentals.

These coaches didnt realize what they were getting into ...you have not talent when your best player is a local walk on

I forgive you for not knowing how things work. Fuad, a former Vol and former wealthy home builder, was in position to save UT a scholarship by paying his son's own way. Monte said Nick will play in the NFL. So an NFL player sucks??

Hughes and G. Williams will also be in the NFL. Overrated Walker will be a GA in the weight room.

I honestly don't think this group cares enough to let an ass chewing bother them. Too many would rather be at Bar Knoxville.

Really? :whistling:

Per Hubbs

Defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox... apparently said it was the worst tackling performance he has ever been a part of as a coach.

.

The apparent quote attributed to Coach Wilcox is little more than a startling pronouncement of the clearly obvious.

I go all the way back to when Coach Wyatt was at the helm and last week was the absolute worst tackling and defensive play overall I have ever seen.

It has to get better and hopefully it will this week.

This is an epidemic of the new generation of the Xbox football mentality.

Everyone wants to be the hard hitter. No one wants to wrap up. I was listening to Jay Barker dicus this with Antonio Langham on Birmingham sports talk the other day. Antonio said he think its generational. That kid these days want so bad to be in the spotlight or make sportcenter and have gotten away from fundamnetals of tackling. I couldnt agree more.

Yeah, it should be Sportscenter mentality, because even on Xbox if you go for a big hit you get burned 90% of the time.

Good to hear. Let Wilcox get in the players faces and chew their a**** out, last week was the most absurd things I have ever seen on defense.

Maybe you didn't see last year vs. ole miss. That was a disaster.

Get him a crate of whiteboards. The tackling and pursuit on LSU's first play just made me thow up in my mouth a little.

Keep it coming, RECON! You are Chris Walker's BEST motivation! :thumbsup:

Chris played hard today. Nick missed the tackle that would have won the game.

There might actually be hope that this will get fixed. Thank God.

They clearly didn't participate in tackling drills during preseason.
