Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Jack Burton]

I’m trying and trying to stay excited about this program but I just can’t. I’m not even looking forward to games anymore.

Look forward to b-ball. For the foreseeable future we are a basketball school.

Off topic. What ever happened to the poster on here that had JP Prince as his avi? He and Bruin used to go at it all the time. I cannot remember his username. Just curious.

BigZiti. He hasn't even logged in in 2.5 years. Supposedly he posts elsewhere now.

That’s him. Thank you

Lunacy at its finest. A moron, lol. He could spend an hour discussing football scheme and technique with you and you would come away having no idea what he was just talking about because he knows that much more about football than you do. Does that mean he has done a good job coaching this year? Not at all. Does that even mean that he definitely has the characteristics required to be a successful HEAD COACH? No not all. But when somebody could talk circles around you about a certain topic is kind of hard to label them as a moron. The only people that would really do that....are actual morons that aren't smart enough to know what they don't know.

If his players are having a hard time understanding his scheme, then Pruitt is a moron. A good, intelligent teacher is so knowledgeable about a topic that they can explain it to anyone. Whether that’s putting it in lay terms for common people or getting highly technical with peers. His players look lost and frustrated so moron really isn’t an unfair label. It’s year 3. They shouldn’t be making the mistakes that they are

PFF grades for all 127 QBs:

4. Mac Jones

31. Connor Bazelak
38. Collin Hill
39. Terry Wilson
44. Bo Nix
59. Stetson Bennett
98. Ken Seals
100. Jarrett Guarantano
103. T.J. Finley/Max Johnson
119. KJ Costello/Will Rogers

Their JG write-up:

Guarantano has been the same in 2020 as he has always been throughout his collegiate career: Inaccurate. On throws beyond the line of scrimmage, Guarantano has thrown an uncatchable ball 37% of the time, the fifth-worst rate in the entire FBS. Last year, Guarantano’s accuracy issues hindered the Tennessee offense, but he at least didn’t put the ball in harm’s way. That has changed this season, as his turnover-worthy play rate has nearly doubled and ranks third-to-last in the SEC.

He’s giving the bird to the fans and media on his way back to Saban.

Preach my brother... Preach.

[volinbama256]

Can't wait for Fulky to ball.... I love how he's developed...will be very refreshing to finally get to see a program top to bottom working as a team, giving it 100%, all on the same page, and leaving it all on the court. GBO!

Almost reminds you of Butch's "eff all them" comment.

 

[SSVol]

But he gives us the best chance to win!

Honestly...he might. Which is just as much an indictment of the coaching as JG's poor play.

Jeez Mr Rekin if we fired that gump and hired the perv would that pep you up some?

Well it just might!

This staff is inept. Full ride talked about Lincoln Riley. They said he only runs plays that the QB does well. He throws out numerous plays depending on the QB. Our staff is trying to make our players do things that they aren’t good at. Auburn throttles us and I think we start to hear more heat on Pruitt.

 

[Devo182]

If what AV said is true about the playbook, I have to wonder who has insisted on the play sheet being so thick.

Because I watched Jim Chaney throw freshman rock-head Tyler Bray in the game and let him sling it all over the field.

And we’ve heard time and time again Pruitt’s defense is very hard to learn.

So, I have some thoughts on who is to blame.

Have to remember 1st round at UT was his first OC job since Purdue, where they played basketball on grass and probably had a limited playbook.

He has since been interviewed while at Arky, UGA, etc talking how his philosophy has changed since then. He thought other offenses were veering toward his old Purdue style and he wanted to go the other direction.

Not for the better, it seems.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

When we look at who we interviewed and could have had before Pruitt, does anyone believe that any of the other candidates would have done worse? I think Doeren, Brohm, and Tucker would have been better.

Being a good, intelligent teacher is not synonyms with being a moron. Being really knowledgeable about a topic but not being able to get that info across to other people does not make a person a moron.

I would have loved Brohm - I was so disappointed when Hyams got that wrong.

Tucker, eh, who knows?

Doeren probably would have been something like 5-7, 6-6 then 6-4 this year.

AP is 37?! I thought he was late 40’s.

The overweights and covering Vols athletics will do that to you.

It'll be interesting to see how the Fightin' Frozen Flames do against Borin' Doeren this weekend.

 

[Catbone]

Pruitt is done

Not yet . Need to go 2-8

Agreed. I didn’t want Doeren and still don’t. We would be very average. But we wouldn’t be as bad as we are now.

Performance is based on wins and losses, starting JG gives JP the best chance of losing his job and getting paid 12m dollars!! So that’s a win for him!! I see Wheres he going with this now...
