No way Chaney was that conservative. Pruitt called out Chaney last week. He's got his hands all over this offense. It's obvious to me he had no intention of trying to win the game. He his goal was to minimize the loss, that he had already conceded.

Problem is that players know this. They are asking the same questions wed fans are.
Thats what I said back on the 3rd and 7 call. No way Chaney calls a run there. Pruitt has stuck him with JG and is telling him to minimize the damage.
 
I would bet the mortgage he puts up a better game. Hell, he did his first year with OLE MISS.

Let that sink in for a minute before you respond.

I don’t need to let it sink in. He left our university after one year in the middle of the night. Let’s see how he does long term.

Playing a game close does nothing. Everyone says the pint is to win.

Bingo
 
So let’s see here..

If Tennessee fires Pruitt here’s what’ll happen:

Almost immediately (like that week) we see decommitments from everyone in our recruiting class that’s worth a damn with somewhere else to go. Dylan Brooks ends up at Auburn or Alabama, Terrence Lewis stays in Miami, Aaron Willis and Katron Evans MIGHT stick around, Kaidon Salter stays in state because he won’t be able to get to know the new OC. Cody Brown goes to Auburn, Kaemen Marley goes to UNC.. you get the point.

Jeremy Pruitt is almost IMMEDIATELY hired by Alabama as the DC.

False Grumors fire up again, half the fan base says anyone less than Urban Meyer is unacceptable. We don’t have the money to offer him. Fan base goes into a frenzy.

PJ Fleck opts to stay in Minnesota for less money, Matt Campbell does the same at Iowa State, and Bronco Mendenhall at UVA

False report that Scott Satterfield from Louisville is hired picks up steam but is proven false

Hugh Freeze chooses to take the Auburn job over here after Gus Mahlzan is fired

Billy Napier is hired as the new head coach but only on the condition that he takes his entire UL-Lafayette staff with him.. and it falls through.

After all that, Tennessee finally hires Texas A&M defensive coordinator Mike Elko as the new HC.

A slew of transfers happen after Derrick Ansley and Brian Neidermeyer are not retained. Including Henry To’oto’o, Quavaris Crouch, Darnell Wright, Brian Maurer, Dominic Bailey, Doneiko Slaughter, and about 5 or 6 other Pruitt guys that are ONLY here because of that coaching staff. This would likely include Harrison Bailey. Jarrett Guarantano opts to stay for year 6 after the depth chart thins.

Tennessee finishes at 22 in the nation for recruiting after having to replace all of their big departures with low 3 stars that weren’t being recruited by other SEC schools

Cade Mays and Bryce Thompson declare for the NFL draft

Tennessee finishes 4-8 in 2021, and finishes barely top 15 in recruiting with Ty Simpson at Clemson and Walter Nolen at LSU.

Or, this season we finish 5-5 or 6-4. Salvage the class, sign 2 more guys we need and get ready for 2021 with Harrison Bailey as the guy and a potential 9-10 win season on the horizon, and a shot at a top 5 class in 2022.

Think about this before you just want to fire the HC.

This is all great except for one thing. Between Pruitt and JG, I'm sure those two clowns are planning on him being here another year.

He did better this year at Ole Miss in his first year than Pruitt did in his third year.

Stop. Just stop. Seriously. Think about that.

This isn’t UT football. Losing to KY at home
worse than anything In the last like 100 years isn’t UT Football. Getting blown out by Bama (and KY) is UT football.

Losing 14 in a row to Bama isn’t UT football.

How can one not be pissed beyond belief about this?

No offense but we will be lucky to win five games. I don’t think we can fire Pruitt but everyone has a right to question his coaching and the development of our players. There is ZERO reason that JG keeps getting shoved down our throats while we keep on getting blown out by our rivals.
