Typical VN, LOL!
The fastest to reply and most vocal seem to always be those that know the least about college football and how to rebuild a team and a solid, consistent program.
Talk to any NFL coach and they'll tell you 1 of the most important things for a WR to learn is how to block correctly and successfully and our kids start to learn that from day 1 which is important if you want a solid run game which every team needs.
Any great WR coach will tell you that learning how to correctly become a good WR takes lots of time for most kids, even in the NFL, because there's lots more to it than running a route and catching a football.
Intelligent people know that great recruiting has been and always will be the number 1 most important thing in college football to build and maintain a great, successful program.
Coach Azzanni is a excellent recruiter and he's a huge part of why our Vols footVol tean has come so far in such a short period of time and that's 1 of the reasons he got a pay raise and a position improvement.
You can NOT have a good passing game until you have a solid O line that's good at pass blocking.
Any good O line coach will tell you it's much easier to learn how to run block and that pass blocking is much harder and takes much more time to perfect the pass blocking craft.
You can NOT have a good passing game if your QB is sporadic and not consistent with his passing accuracy, it just doesn't happen.
Every smart O coordinator that doesn't have all the pieces together for a good passing game will limit passing plays as much as he can until the pieces all come together and then the passing playbook will open up more.
Coaches can only call the plays that the team can execute well and they'll avoid what doesn't work well as much as they can in order to stack up as many WINS as they can throughout the season.
Our playcalling is limited because our QB isn't great with accuracy consistently, because our O line can't pass block consistently and the key is CONSISTENTLY.
You better be thankful that we have great recruiting from Coach Azzanni because without him we would probably still be a 5 Win team.
Those that can't see us getting better each year against some of the top 10 teams in the nation better take their blinders off and go try to actually learn what it really takes to rebuild a college football team back into a solid program.
Azzanni will probably get some good paying offers to leave our Vols soon and if we lose his great recruiting and coaching our Vols will start going backwards again.
Be very careful what you wish for folks, you might just get it and then badly regret it.
