What are you talking about? Conner Shaw has played in every game this year. He got hurt at UCF but started and played the two previous games before ours and played well. I guess we can blame all our losses on Brian Randolph tearing his acl last year.

You may not be able to notice, but Vandy is more talented than our team. Recruits know this and the coaches know this. We are better at Oline and runningback, thats it.

Lol, UK's 2-8 record has really effected their class huh? How many decommits have they had?

The legacy kids have nothing to do with it. Some of our strongest commits aren't even legacies. Recruits are going to listen to other 17 year olds to see where to spend the next 4 years. Jones has a very good relationship with all of these commitments, and considering we will more than likely be 4-5 over our limit, a decommitment won't hurt us.

Wait did shaw not got taken out during our game?? A close one that we barely won?? One that the opponents QB could have made a big difference in the game. Trust me I'm happy with the win in any way we can get it, but doesn't mean jack if the other team has to have their QB taken out for us to win. How did we do the second half of the season bud??were we competitive or well coached???

If a commit commits to KY he knows they r going to expect a bad year. Wait...Did u really just compare us to KY?? Sad.

This is what I've been struggling with. I understand CBJ is trying breed buy-in with his system, but at the end of season it's the wins that count more than how you got there. It was a risky move, and I think he gambled and lost.

We now have our fourth losing season in a row, and back to back losses to Vandy, which hasn't happened since the 1920's.

All those recruits better be ready to play next year they'll take over as starters
Josh Smith will be on the bench next year he can't catch a cold
Dobbs won't be the starting QB
Coleman ?????????

I think the idea is to try to get our best players on the field. Pig may the best running back on the team and he probably is a little out of position

I think he would be better used with more motion and maybe a triple option, with a zone read, then an option to the edge.

I think croom has improved enough to deserve significant playing time; enough that some of these other guys shouldn't see the field as much as they do

Bring on the scout team. Seriously, i hear they do better than the 1st team.

Butch once again coached a great game, we just don't have the players to overcome an average Vanderbilt team that committed turnovers like they were our passing yards. At least we wore Gray uniforms...that makes the loss better.

Yea, super call on that fake field goal.

I'm not a coach so I don't know what happened this year. I'm frustrated just like the rest of you are. I was hoping for a minimum of 6-6 this year, but it's not happening now. Guess it could be a combination of things that's gone wrong, at different times. When CBJ was hired, I had a wait and see attitude........that hasn't changed even though he has a good recruiting class coming in. The proof is in the future. If he gets that good recruiting class to sign, and still underachieves, we are in for more frustrations. CBJ has to prove he's a good coach at this level. He's got the tradition on his side, the facilities, and the fan base. We'll shall see.

The problem is we're not maximizing what we have. What gives anyone confidence based on what they've seen this year that he can coach anyone up?

I mean...my God what goes through someone's head that makes them make the fake FG call on 4th and 19, and run a play that has a KICKER rolling left and throwing back to the right?

What makes a coach call a read-option 20 times a game and instruct a QB to NEVER keep the ball?

What makes a coach have a true Freshman throw the ball 42 times in his first start?

What makes a coach SEE a QB at practice every day, and start him at Florida (a 4-8 Florida) when he is nowhere near ready?

This...is just some issues...he has got to wake the hell up. Has to. This is Dooley bad. Defend the above....please?

All true and no defense for any of this. CBJ can recruit but I havent seen much if any good coaching all year. I cannot beleive how bad we looked last night with 2 weeks to prepare. Pathetic.
