Until the game was on the line... then VANDY passed at will and felt no pass rush at all.

You forgot the stupid f'ing facemask that got them 15 yards. One long play. I think with the PF on that drive they are kicking for a tie.

Pig had the ball. That interpretation is taking that rule to the absolute maximum.

Giving the spot on 4th and inches was BS. There was no way to tell where the ball was. The replay officials are becoming activist judges in the booth. Why have officials? Just have 22 refs in the booth and let them watch each guy. They can simply call penalties from there. Put a locator in the football and you will know exactly where it is on the field at all times.

1) Need a QB that is more focused on football than the classroom. I'm glad he is smart, but that doesn't mean he is football smart. Would rather him get a business degree and be a genius on the field. He continually looks uncomfortable and scared.

2) Need a running back BAD. Neal may get the yards, but when you have to run it a zillion times to get the yards, it doesn't help anything. Lane and Pig as 2nd tiers to an SEC quality back would take 50% of the pressure off the run game.

3) Need receivers. We have no go to guys, none.

4) Need an O-Line. I don't care how big they are or how long they have been together, not SEC quality is not SEC quality.

5) Need speed at linebacker. AJ has the heart and desire but he just can't get to the play.

6) Need D'backs.......have needed D'backs FOREVER.

7) Need a D'line that can rush. They play OK against the straight up run, but anything else, they suffer.

8) TE's are pretty good?

No sorry....there is no excuse to having zero vertical passing game. It comes down to two things for me..either your OC likes the east-west game, which isn't going to get it done in the SEC or someone can't coach enough to get 1-2 canned north/south passing plays. The offense is absimal. Sure there are freshman and so on but this is week ...what... 13 or so and with the personnel you can't have a go to pass play or few? Sorry, am a bit worried about the OC......recognizing the D has issues too.
No one could catch a pass last night. It hurt not having North and Blanc in there.

It is clear we have very little talent and depth on this team. Anyone blaming the coaching staff knows very little about football.

You obviously don't either. When we progressively get worse as season goes on rather than get better? A good coach can do more with less. Look at vandy and mizzou!

The reality of the situation is if Franklin had this talent, he would of spanked his Vandy team last night

Its not talent peeps, its the coaching

Its the first year of this coach. He hasn't had a recruiting class of his own. Are the fans on this forum really this dumb? We dont have an established qb and slow team speed on defense.

I know it sucks losing but don't let it bother you. Go spend time with family or find a hobby. We are not on the field playing or giving tons of money to the university so we just need to relax. Im not going to spend 8-9 months worrying about UT football. It is what it is. You can't live and die with something you have no control over.

And with coaching like this...he'll be 4-8 again next year. He needs to reach down and see if he's got a pair. And if he does, then he needs to let Bajakian and Janzek go...then use that big budget Hart gave him, to hire REAL COACHES with REAL RESUMES (Baylor's OC and Stanford's DC). Offer them between 800k-1mill, and they'll come.

Bamer broke out the checkbook and swung for the fences. We haven't. We have tried to bunt the ball. That's why they are where they are...as long as they are. And we are where we are, as long as we have. They have told the media, the big salary to lure/keep Saban's has been the best investment in their history.

Instead we get Hamilton...the program disease that keeps on giving, and the Tales of the Crypt guy (Hart), who isn't much better

Last time I checked, the program was in debt. We're talking millions of dollars. Where do you suggest we get that kind of money. It's easy to say just give the guys millions of dollars when you're not thinking about the budget

Downs is slightly better than Justin Reed... Slightly

So far I have heard nothing but a lot of hot air from Butch Jones. No improvement from this team as the season has progressed at all. Time to set these seniors down. I can't wait to see a new offensive line.

Come on dude. Be honest with yourself...that was a first down. I knew it, everyone else knew it. Just wishful thinking if you truly believe that wasn't a first down.

Need coaching also. Don't leave that out. We have had 11 games and our great coaching staff still hadn't gotten our offense going. Great players can only do so much with ****ty coaching. Ga southen beat the gators throwing 3 passes. That is coaching and dedication by the team.

That would have worked if Palardy sets his feet to throw. Threw a weak pass off his back foot. We can thank Pig Howard for blowing another game, with a critical mistake. That's two games, had he not made the major guff, we come away with 2 more wins, rather than losses.

Yeah right. Pig and Palardy are to blame for the loss.
Come on, man!

Injuries are always bad, but how was losing North catastrophic? We had about 25 yards passing while he was in there.

Uh, he is the only WR that has come up big for us all year making plays and catches when we needed it.....

Yeah I've heard enough of his car salesman BS. Results are all I care about. We will suck next year. Book it. FML.

Ignorant posts like this is why I will take a few days off from the board. Need time to let the idiots get their rage out.

Oh please. He didn't make any excuses just stated some facts.

That's not true. He made the excuse that because North went out that we essentially couldn't throw the ball at all, that he is our only speed guy. He clearly made the excuse that the refs were to blame with his "no comments" line when asked about them. There's two.

1) have you seen anyone other than north able to make catches? Didn't think so

2) the refs handed Vandy that game at the end.

God forbid that this fanbase has members that actually get upset and voice their displeasure. Some require a little more than sunshine pumping and rainbow chasing to be satisfied.
