Please take your rooting interests to another school. Ten games does not fix four years of Kiffin and Dooley coaching/recruiting.

Don't give these folks too much credit... most people that are stupid don't realize they're stupid until it's too late

I'm not ready to give up on Butch but for whatever reason this is the second worse TN team I've ever witnessed, last year being the worst by just a smiggen.

Do you think the team has improved over the course of the season? That's what needs to be contemplated. Obviously the D has not and special teams coverage has gotten worse.

If you are willing to accept another Dooley level performance as "acceptable"... please take your rooting interests to another school. Ten games is plenty of time to coach up and improve the play of the current players... you are NOT as devoid of talent as you seem to think.

There is a VERY good chance you and others are in for a shock when a good recruiting class or two doesn't solve all the problems and especially on D.

This. We may just need a new D-Coordinator and Special Teams coach.

Lol yeah. 10 games is plenty of time to coach up one of the worst teams in UT history and beat a bunch of top 10 teams. Get real man. You sound so stupid

I understand the O problems. I actually see some progress outside of tolerating OL's that aren't playing well.

The D is terrible and has gotten worse. They are playing as bad right now as at the worst point last year. I agree there are talent issues but better coaching should be at least somewhat evident... SOMEWHERE.

Tennessee has to have some of the most fair weather fans around, not mention I am not sure how some of the idiots can figure out how to turn on a computer. Not even a full season and these mouth breathers are after the coach's head. The main reason I don't bother coming around much. Give the man a chance, he has some real talent coming in but he can't snap his fingers and make slow players fast or mid level talent stars. Go cheer for Bama or somebody else, we don't need you.

The kiffin/dooley pissed on my parade excuse has been overplayed. By this point in the season there should be considerable improvement from week one but theres not. Plain and simple thats coaching

Tennessee fans are upset over giving up 55 at home to a team that won 3 games last year and they are idiots? You sound like a liberal p*$$y

Offense has improved over the course of the year and what has happened to Palardy is nothing short of remarkable. But defense continues to be a disaster. I still think it's a personnel issue, particularly in the secondary.

No one should be giving up on this staff because no one at this point should be buying into this staff. They all should be on a year trial period. So far, recruiting looks great and coaching looks terrible. Lets see how both finish up.

Dude, just stop. You can tell plenty about a coach after 10 games. No one expected him to win a national championship this year. 95% of the board will be happy with 6 wins. But stop acting like there isn't cause for concern when you're getting blown out and embarrassed week after week. When you look much worse against your opponents than teams like Toledo and Arkansas State did. That can't simply be blamed on talent. At some point, someone is supposed to teach these guys how to tackle and how to fill gaps.

And stop trying to play the "you should root for someone else" or "you're not a real fan" card. Anyone who is still here after years and years of this is a real fan. Anyone who cares enough to still complain at this point is a real fan. My alma mater is #2 in the nation and I don't even watch most of their games, but yet I'm here, worrying over a team that hasn't had a winning season in 3 years and doesn't look to turn things around anytime soon. I'll complain all I want, that's part of being an actual fan. You're supposed to care.

Yeah I'm stupid because I recognize that there's been little if any improvement and in many cases regression. You're "smart" because you stick your head in the sand and deny anything other than "no talent".

Yes. In ten games you should see improvement. Even UK has improved over the course of the season. You should NOT see the same mistakes... over and over and over. If your personnel decisions are worth a dime you shouldn't see McCullers in AJ's lap on run plays as often as we do.

I agree. The secondary outside of Sutton is awful. Bad angles, blown assignments and getting turned around is the norm.

I'm also disappointed by the lack of effort shown by McCullers. He could be a beast but he just looks lazy

Lets see lose to a bad Florida team get blown out in Oregon then tske UGA to OT and beat a pretty good USC team. Nope. No improvement there.


This team is worn down. Weve been playing the hardest schedule in the country with NO depth. Our back ups are walk ons bro. Get real.

Lack of quality depth is finally catching up with this team. All you have to do is look at the brutal schedule and it should be obvious.
