Matthews comments read to me as coach speak for “get your ass in gear and learn the book or you won’t be playing”


If a guy is out of position because he’s not on his route tree that’s a huge turnover liability

Matthews doing so bad that he has more TDs than Bru and Squirrel combined.

Those two need to learn something as well.

Being uninformed sucks, I know.


I’m sure you didn’t know this because you are so uninformed, but did you know we are toward the bottom of the conference in WR statistics? (Yards, TDs, etc)

Thornton is the best WR on the team and he is ranked 22 in yards, that’s not good

“Matthews needs to pick it up” nah the whole WR core needs to pick it up

 

[Jackcrevol]

what a manchina.

[Enki_Amenra]

I have the evidence to corroborate this

He was gonna retire after 22 if we made the title game.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

He's right...Also Vols have only had 2 games NOT at 7:30pm or later.

12:45 to open season against Chattanooga and our 3:30pm against Bama.

Do you believe USC can win outright?

I cannot believe I am saying this but I am rooting for Karl Childers in this one.

Karl Childers is smarter than Pruitt. Aight then

Matthews also has 2 receptions on the season in 5 game appearances, so he's obviously doing something wrong when on the field.

Everyone wants pass catching TEs...until you have all 3 of them accounting for 4 of our 10 receiving TDs.

 

[Orange_Crush]

We may “need” Bama to win but I can not/will not root for them to win

That's like wishing someone you dislike will wreck their car...





...into your car. It makes zero sense.

I really think it's a trap game for A&M. Go to South Carolina with them coming off a bye week and face arguably the best pass rushing DL in the entire country.

This thread - it has a knot in it

OL = Nico = TE = WR = Angry Face

Little off topic, but I’m still in the boat that Bru should’ve been moved to TE.

Did it with Fant. Same player, legitimately no difference.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

You know what's frustrating, as it's one stat that is directly related to how poorly we've been officiated.

We're 15th in the SEC in sacks with 15 on the season. Mississippi State is the only team with less at 5.

At least a package or two set up for him that way

All I’ve ever seen people talk about is his blocking and that he’s a safe option.

Sounds like a TE to me.

Agreed. I’d like to see Thornton, Brazell and Matthews at WR and McCoy at TE.

Been underwhelmed with our true TEs this season, especially Ethan Davis. But understand that the passing game overall is lackluster due to our porous OL.

Except he fought all off-season to get back on the field to make a case for why he is an NFL WR. I respect the thought, but this isn't Madden where we swap dudes without issue.

I like it, arguably our best pass blocking WR. Has good size to play TE at 6'3" 220+ and it'd open up the WR trio to be faster and more explosive on the outside.

Probably would have just as good of numbers (if not better)... Staes is only 6'4" and 240s
