I hate to say it but i don't see our running game being as good as it could have been with graham. and i also don't see how anyone can completely deny this thought. the man doubled our running output in one season. we can be ok but it wont have that Tennessee running back feel to it. graham had playing experience at the position which is something i don't think the new coach will have.

Even without having a new RB Coach in place, the OP is certain.

Book it. Got it.

The wisdom on this board is unmatched.

Graham is going for another UT record. Being the cause for the largest amount of stupid threads in the history of volnation. Don't think he'll be able to pull it off with things like the Bray bottle throwing incident and coaching search being stout competition. However, threads like this show he is making one hell of a run at it.

I don't blame CJG for leaving for the stupidity of the fans alone.

So Pittman had nothing to do with our running game being better , It was all Graham ? I dont know how UT can go forward without Graham.

NO, Graham is the one all, be all running back coach in the nation. Without him Tennessee will fall into the seventh level of h#$%. It will take an act of the football Gods to rise Tennessee from the depths and place them up top of the pedestal of the elites. Without Graham ... and only Graham the backfield of the Tennessee Vols will be a baring wasteland of failure. The likes that no one has ever seen. Oh how we shall fall in despair and grovel in the underbelly that is the SEC. I can't believe I am up this early!!!

Pittman made just as much of an impact IMO. Along with the OL realizing their potential.

Well apparently that is the problem. The "clowns" are the ones that want to be here ... not Graham.

yeah those proven winners right? The ones that beat a few high school teams in Ohio or teams like North Dakota State. Yep them non recruiting Ohio natives should really bring on the Studs! i hope they get some sun though because they all look like ghost!

There is a reason Jones couldn't beat the worste Tenn Team in years!

You have no idea who the new rb coach is gonna be or what kind of "playing experience" he will have- may wind up being a Heisman trophy winner for all you know. And I know Jay was good, but I give a lot of, if not most of the credit for our running game last year to the OL.

Bring any RB coach... doesn't matter. All they have to do is tell RB to watch out for Tiny and follow him....

Why? Do you have the personal experience of being coached by these guys including CJG. Just because he was a good back and played here doesn't automatically make him a better coach. If you don't have first hand knowledge then you're just beating your gums for no reason. CJG doesn't want to be here. I highly doubt he's the only coach in the country that can coach runnung backs. People are making way too much over this. What will people say if our backs average a yard per carry more this next year? That CJG sucked as a coach? Let's just wait and see what happens before we commit suicide.

If Jay Graham would of never got Lat's to SC, he would be just another RB coach. He is a one hit wonder, a decent coach, but he is not the 2nd coming and this wouldn't be that big of a deal.

You listed a lot of uncertainties. What was the one certainty you promised?

4 of 6 conf championships. Best data we have on them.

When did they play high school teams? You argument doesn't get better by telling lies. It gets worse, since you lose credibility.

It doesn't do you much good to prove that you don't even know the staff that you are bashing. They're not Ohio natives. They coached there a while, though.

Stay classy San Diego. This has nothing to do with coaching ability. Your argument doesn't get better by basing it on non sequiteurs.

PS: It's creepy to see grown men judging other grown men's sun tans. jmho
