If Pruitt WANTS (yea yea) to be here, we need to let him sign this class, develop Bailey (if that’s possible with another coach), and see what we do next year. I said when we started recruiting Bailey that the Pruitt era starts with him. That hasn’t happened yet for obvious reasons. I need to stand by that. I think Freeze would be fun and probably battle Mullen very well. I just don’t think it’s gonna happen this year.

The only want I want to move on from Pruitt is if we lose our LB class and he refused to send Weinke packing.

You sir are CORRECT! He is the best thing that has ever happened to US. But his hands are tied to an extent also. He knows what it takes in today landscape and if we don’t drastically change our approach, we won’t ever be more than below average to average.

Surprised Eric Bieniemy isn't getting any love on this board...

If the admin is scared of Freeze, give Eric or Joe Brady a look and pair them with a good/great DC... you'd have QB's and WR's lined up out the door to play for those two

And I'd agree, if not for the way we've lost and how badly. To leave JG starting while so quickly pulling other players off the field when they make lesser mistakes, confusing.

well, that's why i said for this particular coversation only....you can get in the weeds pretty quick.

keep in mind, i think a lot of that also has to do with "how" we lost, not just THAT we lost. cause i don't know that changing the QB changes the results.

it just changes the optics of how you get there, and by what means.

JG has been awful, and we keep going to that dry well. that's a conversation on personnel decision making. not what impacted this team, this season developmentally. and i'd argue that outside maybe OL and WR, the QB room in general was hardest hit by not having an off season or off season competition.

we all knew for someone to beat JG, it would have to be done in practice given his prowess for excelling there.

well....kinda hard to do that when there's no practice. which is why i'm fine wiht more bye weeks. ducking vandy or no, we need reps.

this next off season is crucial.

I don’t think it matters really. With the details of “leadership” (use that term loosely here) running this train off the tracks and appear to be okay with not correcting course then you might as well take one of Biden’s sharpies and put us next to last in the SECE standings for the foreseeable future.

^ unless Pruitt was 100% not going to be fired if going 2-8 or 3-7, this IS a bad thing.

In all likelihood he isn't getting fired. Same old song and dance. So I guess the rest of the season being canceled does us a huge favor because it minimizes the damages and perhaps helps hold the recruiting class together and reduces locker room division/transfers after more blowout losses.

They’re coming after me because I would be excited to give a black VFL a chance.

And before this turns into an affirmative action discussion and we start arguing about political ****, I’m not saying you hire anyone because of the color of their skin.

I’m just saying, in our specific instance, it would be a good story.

I personally come after you because I think you have an agenda, that is not related to race, but is more related to the troll-race, and that you mix in occasional legit comments with the trolling stuff to give yourself some perceived legitimacy.

I am all in on Brady because he has SEC experience. I don’t trust Bieniemy because of the lack of college experience and it’s hard for me to think his success doesn’t really belong to Andy Reid.

doesn't change the fact that this team's core talent is comprised of FR and SO.....and htey need develoment. of which, they got none this off season.

I think Boosters have met with Fulmer. I think they told him that if Pruitt loses to Vanderbilt then both him and Pruitt are gone. Fulmer bought some time for both of them.
