Proud to say I wasn’t skeptical at the time. I thought it was a gamble but that he we had to take a shot because I didn’t think anyone else would touch the job considering the shape the program was in, but I also remembered he was a hell of a QB back in the day and he had experience. Plus I knew the situation at UCF that wasn’t reflected in the record (injuries, COVID opt-outs, etc…)If you weren't skeptical of the hire given the past four hires, can you even call yourself a Vol fan?
Bringing up posts from 18 months ago. This was the first couple days after the hire because everyone was hoping we were going to get a big name. I had changed my position to “wait and see” a couple of months later. It turns out he was a great choice. I never expected us to be in the position we are today.Good call
It seems to be the thing to do this week. I had one chasing me from thread to thread. Lol.Bringing up posts from 18 months ago.

Yes we have trolls within the ranks. @Rickyvol77It seems to be the thing to do this week. I had one chasing me from thread to thread. Lol.
Hey I’m all about the sunshine pumpers finally being rightYes we have trolls within the ranks. @Rickyvol77
Man....I F'n love me the keyword search button and some old threads.
AmenSo after the greatest win for Tennessee in at least a decade, what you decided to do was call out other Vol fans? Did some of us hate the hire (including me)? Absolutely, but if after beating Alabama all you want to do is gloat over OTHER VOL FANS. Then I'll take literally anyone you tagged over you.
I was so damned angry about Pruitt I took time off posting from December 2017 and didn't put anything up until the start of the 2019 season.
This one doesn't anger me. It doesn't wow me. The guy's ability as an offensive coach does give us a chance of having something decent to hold onto during these difficult years ahead.
If he gets us back into fighting shape and pulls us up to the point where Florida and Alabama aren't treating us like a practice game against the local DIII team, then I'm going to be pleased with the hire.
