You are not looking at the coaches knowledge of football. Butch had Dobbs and Kamara. After they left Butch was left to coach. How did he do? Oh that's right, HE SUCKED and got fired. If Pruitt had Dobbs we may have won the EAST.I'm sure not a Butch Jones fan, but this halo that people throw over Pruitt like he's a coaching genius is asinine. At least Butch was a head coach before coming to Tennessee and screwing everything up. We just straight up handed the keys to the bus to a nobody who promptly lost the first home opener in 30 years and has a combined margin of loss to Florida that is greater than Dooley and Butch combined in 8 years.
The people who are impressed that this team beat garbage teams down the stretch and this means Pruitt and Geronimo are the saviors of UT football is ludicrous.
We need way way more time before we can say Pruitt is goo at anything but eating cornbread and talking like an imbred.
Right now Butch > Pruitt > Dooley
Pruitt has work to do to pass Butch, sad to say.

He had better recruiting, total wins, and bowl game wins. Obviously JP still needs time but on paper old BJ still has him beat.
That being said I personally believe CJP is better than BJ.
Butch can't hold Pruitt's pen when it comes to coaching. That is one of the all time most asinine things that has ever been said on here. And one things about moronic thread starts they can come back to haunt you like this one and deservedly so. GBO!!!!!
ZJC doesn’t concern himself with being utterly wrong. Otherwise he’d of changed his modus operandi long ago.Quite a pronounced and unmistakeable position you carved out for yourself there, ZJC.
The lesson to draw from it isn't that you were wrong. We're all wrong sometimes. That's no big deal. It's that this is a symptom of a broader issue -- you (and others here) need to gain a sense of patience, a longer view, learn how not to hyperventilate at every setback.
Because life is just chock full of setbacks. You want to be able to weather them and come out the other side in reasonable shape.
Go Vols!

Behr, how do you do it in the FF day after day? You are like one of the "300" soldiers. I tip my cap to you sir.Winning sure brings out the dumb in folks. Blah blah blah, we beat garbage teams down the stretch that we haven't beaten in 2-3 years. They were on the schedule. We have to play who is on the schedule. Doesn't matter if they suck or not.
How does Pruitt have work to do to pass Pruitt? You mean his 2 years vs Butch's 5 years? Well, duh. Compare their first two years and get back. Remember, Pruitt is 7-5 this year and still has a bowl game to play. Also remember what you reminded us of in the beginning of your post. Pruitt is in year 2 of being a Head coach and Butch was a head coach for 6 years before coming here.
Right now Pruitt>>>>Butch>>Dooley.
It's called Georgia State derangement syndrome. If we had won the east, we would still be hearing but but but we lost to Georgia State!Pruitt hasn't lost to Kentucky. He also hasn't lost to Vandy 3 times, or gone winless in the SEC.
I honestly can't believe what we went through this season and we're having this conversation. Pruitt not even finished with his second year and y'all are hanging on to your boy Butch's nutsack while he grins and smokes his "just beat Tennessee" celebratory cigar.
Nah, y'all don't suck.
