A Thread For The Coaching Search Family!

Had an extra week off and still came out flat. No passing game although vandy had 3 and 4 defensive backs out of the game. Didn't seem to have any kind of gameplan on offense.
Disappointing.

I'm not sure if there happens to be a word for less than flat. Defense was pretty good overall minus all those screen passes (which was a Vandy MO for the entire season so it should have been countered) and wasn't until that last drive they couldn't stop.

But the offense was uninspiring to say the least.

Well you don't have a choice after next week. I have a feeling next week could be the all time low for UT football.

I sure hope you are wrong but have a great fear you may be correct :cray:

I know we will be better - I know we will come back from this - I know Tennessee Football will return - I know. But knowing doesn't make this any easier...

 

[Orangeslice13]

I don't "know" that it will be better.
I'm hopeful.
We shall see

I don't know if I've ever been this ready for a football season to end.

Football should never end.
My oldest played his last game ever last week. He's been playing since he was 10. After everyone left he went back out to say good buy his own way

Football should never end

That's awesome Slice. My son plays now (8th grade). It was a rough season for him and his team. He was injured much of the year, his team sucked. Lots of drama. That with the Vols season makes this one ready for the books for me. Best of luck to your son.

We may be very close to having no such thing as Vol football.

Poignant...I love how he loves this game

 

[Orangeslice13]

Its funny how all the former players and analyist say we are in good hands and we will be back under Jones but the Volnation regulars Know better than that.

He asked me "what's next?" I said one day you will walk in this locker room to get your son after his last game. He's going to ask "what's next?" Tell him a good life full of lessons learned from football.


That's what my grandpaw told me.
I miss the old coot.

No, but I believe we have a good head coach in Butch. Not so confident about some of the coordinators/assistants. Also too many of the older players have got dooley's losing attitude.

Good to see you back. Been a while.

I learned so much from my dad and my grandpa. But I'm still wishing I had done more listening to them both.

It's funny how the older one gets, the smarter your parents/grand parents get. :crazy:

Vols need to finish the season on a positive note. Kick some cat azz.

Agree, but I still think the loss to Vandy will be the season downer.

That's already a given. This week can't make up for it. I would like for them to finish on a positive note, though.

Yeah, I'll give you that.

And here's to a great recruiting class (hopefully we retain all we've gotten commitments from already) and a great off season that the team gels and starts playing some traditional UT football.

 

[steve328]

I think we still pick up one or two commitments ( and lose a couple ) and wind up with a great year in recruiting.

IMO, Quarterback and Offensive Line development in the off season is going to determine our future for the next couple of years. We've got to be able to throw the ball down the field and we're going to have to replace most, if not all, of our offensive line.
