Coaching

This is an embarrassment that I blame on coaching. We don't look prepared or disciplined. We have no game plan. I am embarrassed by this performance.

I am embarrassed that we have guys playing receiver that can't a ball. How did they get to this level with those stone hands embarrasses me.
 
WRs has zero talent outside of Pig who wouldn't start on half the SEC schools, the RBs are average, the QB can't throw the ball, the OL can't block because Florida is a great defense who knows they can't throw so stacks the box...

And CBJ is a fool?

Butch is an idiot for not playing Peterman.

Butch is an idiot for playing Peterman.

Please please please go pull for a different team. Everyone has a pathetic minority negative fanbase and I think we have the worst.

I would agree with you. It is almost like people stick their heads into the sand and refuse to understand; this is a NEW coaching staff; this is a team that did not make it to a bowl game last year.

You must control you expectations. We are not a team who is going to alleviate all your concerns in the first or second difficult game. Butch is recruiting well, please wait and see what his boys do.

You guys (not all of you) are falling all over your selves to destroy this coaching staff. Give them a chance. And i do not mean one game or 5 games. Give them a chance... a season to fix this. It is going to take a while. ...Anyway Go Vols regardless. or for you guys who don't care about vocabulary.... irregardless

Was Butch hired to run the I? No! the only thing thats wrong with the coaching that first half was not pulling Peterman earlier. We have 2 average RB's. a very young WR core, and what looks like a overrated OL (going up against one of the best DL in the county) We have no playmakers or depth.

He was hired to win! Win with what he has until he can recruit what he needs!

Peterman should never have started ---- COACHING!

Absolutely stupid playcalling ---- COACHING!

Peterman should have been pulled after two possessions, two turnovers. ---- COACHING!

All of Peterman's bad play is on the coaches. Period. All of it.

I am assuming you have had what.. 10-20 years of coaching experience?

If so please explain why Butch is getting paid the money and you are not.

There will be better days. GBO

Love game day threads.....the real geniuses show up.

They are all very intelligent individuals with at least 15 years coaching experience.

You just don't understand..... they have all been through numerous seasons where they have had to pick up teams that they didn't recruit or coach.

I love the people on here who know EXACTLY how to coach the Vols. Weird thing is that they are not out there coaching and Butch is.

Are you embarrassed easily? Or do you find reasons that are not legit to blame people? Apparently you have not realized that our recruiting has not been the greatest for what?... the last 3-6 years.

Give them a break, you should not have expected a breakout season, if you did then they were set a bit to high.

God knows I want them to win, but it is not going to happen over night..

GO VOLS

First -

Starting Peterman was an absolutely terrible decision. And that is not based simply on the result of watching him.

Worley has the benefit of having some degree of experience. In addition, he started the Oregon game on the road. The sole benefit Tennessee has in playing Oregon is experience. And particularly experience at the QB position. So by starting Peterman you effectively neutralize the main advantage you had in playing Oregon in Eugene.
Plus - its either a horrible decision on its face - which it was proven to be, or it was an admission of terrible evaluation of QB talent. Either way - its the fault of coaches.

And do not blame this on the players. In the first half there was definitely no clear talent gap. If anything, it looked to me that Tennessee had better talent.

Plus - why the insistence on passing the ball or running on the edges so much? Our running game was not good tonight, but that is largely because of our reluctance to run between the tackles where we had some degree of success. Constantly running the read option that takes a day and a half to develop and then running to the corners over and over with limited success was so frustrating to watch. Its not as if I am saying that running up the middle every single time would have resulted in a win - but there is no doubt a better commitmment would have helped. And lining up behind the one strength we have - the OL - and hitting holes fast as opposed to the option would have resulted in a btter offensive performance.

Of course not.....intercepted balls always get thrown from the sidelines. Dear God. Smh.

What do you people want?...you whine whine whine about how bad you want to see peterman....you get what you want and then whine whine whine when you realize he is not the answer. ..then you whine whine whine about how bad the coaching is....For the love of God WE AREN'T LIVING IN THE 90's ANYMORE...most of you need to take a long long look in the mirror and realize our team isn't what it used to be....we are REBUILDING (look it up in dictionary if you don't know what it means). We have by far subpar talent on this team compared to most teams we will play...Be realistic about what the coaching staff can do for the love of God...We are winning games we are supposed to and losing games we are supposed to...It's going to get better real fans know this and don't complain we notice the postives and support our team...Give our coach his deserved 4 years not 4 games with another coaches players.

All of Volunteer Nation was *****ing about Worley. So Peterman starts and it is the worst decision ever? Good grief .

That's what I'm trippin over. As much as I dislike JW's game Peterman was not the answer. There was a reason they started Justin and people still don't get it. These same Peterman sheep now think Fergie can come in and light it up. Stupid.
 
Most everyone screaming for a QB change, we got it, myself included. The play calling is what it is because the QB is a mess, and on the rare occasion he made a decent throw it was dropped , he's making the wrong reads in the option, Neal is running side to side instead of north, the WR are not getting seperation.... What more can the coach do? The talent and speed is not there! It's 4 games, we are 2-2 which most logical thinking football fans expected us to be right now. Stop whining. Give the CBJ staff time, I assure you, they know exactly what they have to work with but it's not gonna be turned around in one season. Be part if the solution and not part of the problem. #GoVols
 
The good news is we want have folks calling for Peterman. The bad news is even though Worley showed some signs of waking up he may still give us pain.
