I'd take chadwell and be optimistic. I just want pruitt goneml at least with chadwell, there is a chance he can do well. There is no chance pruitt can succeed. I already know we aren't firing him tho. I got a bunch of ole miss gear on an Amazon list. Just waiting for confirmation on the pruitt situation before I buy it. And I'll be here next year cheering for ole miss and kiffin when they urinate all over pruitt.

Literally there is nothing in my post that says "gold" at all. Not a thing. It's a negative post. Year 4 and we're talking 7-8 wins. that's the 3 OOC cupcakes, Vandy, SC, and then one more. That's horrible. I'm just telling you what will happen.

BRING BACK THE BCS
Click to expand...
they should just use the BCS formula, and let the top 4 play. scrap the committee.

as far as expanding, there's no real point. after the top 5-7 teams, there's a gap.

so i could see doing a 1 and 2 seed bye, and let 3-6 play, then semi's, and NT.

but that's as far as i'd go on expanding it. would just be pointless from a competitive standpoint....cincy is a great story. they're not beating Alabama, Clemson or OSU....but heck if they got in at 6, good on 'em. no way they should be top 4.

and aTm should get in this year over ND and/or OSU. what those two schools did this year to set themselves up for a play off berth is almost criminal. ND gets to rent the ACC for a year and play for that conf title game and the Big 10 just changes the rules to whatever benefits them....

complete crock. hope they both get run out of the building and we get Bama/Clemson again. and everyone can sit around watch the, what, 5th/6th Bama/Clemson match up in the playoff/national title game.

that's something everyone should be excited about...........

I’m not really sure what’s so hard to understand about this. Florida offered the job to Kelly and frost before contacting Mullen. If either two of them say yes... he is either At Mississippi state or anywhere but Florida.

Not sure why you quoted me to weigh in on this. Not diametrically opposed.

Lol. We aren’t sniffing eight wins. We have the worst coach in the East. Don’t do it to yourself, this University loves this fanbase because they keep talking themselves that s*** will eventually turn into gold and they keep the gold from the fanbase.

No doubt. The University wants consumers happy with the status quo, not those that question not only why the on-field product has sucked @ss the last 15 years, but that it's not getting fixed. The AD is ecstatic when the sheep keep buying those season tickets, spending money on loads of over-priced merch, showing up to the tailgates, and tuning in to Vol Calls, but the sheep should not demand more, because the AD knows what's good for you.

LOL, he won four conference games in three seasons. He also lost to Kentucky, with Bray as his QB, when Kentucky started a QB who was playing WR the entire rest of the season.

He was competing in those games though. I remember this strange feeling where I experienced a multitude of emotions while watching games from beginning to end. We had a chance to pull off some damn big upsets in his time here.

With Pruitt? I sit down on the couch, feeling numb knowing that we have zero chance to beat anyone of merit, and watch the worst football coach I’ve ever seen call the least creative, intelligent gameplan ive ever seen. The players don’t quit but they also don’t play with any fire.

Dooley wasn’t good but this guy is the pits and has taken away all emotion from UT football. He’s fat and away the worst

We might lose to Pitt. The schedule isn't finished yet, so the ETSU or Chattanooga or whoever isn't on there yet. I wasn't counting Pitt. That's probably a loss.

We also get blown out by bama, Fl, Ga, Ole Miss, and Mizzou, and quite possibly KY again.

We are only beating Vandy and South Bama next year. UK, BAMA, MIZZ and FL all away. Doesn't matter where we play UGA.

I know for a fact that Tennessee's offer to Mullen was comparable to what he wound up getting from Florida. We didn't offer anything serious enough for him to not wait out Florida. This is fact.
Click to expand...
how is that fact?

it's your opinion. he was gonna wait on FL no matter what. we offer him whatever amount, doesn't change a thing. he was gonna give UF the chance to match, if they wound up calling him.

the only fact here is that he said "thank you for the offer" and he never returned another phone call.

So you’re a Florida insider?
Click to expand...

Not at all. Nothing I said has anything to do with Florida's dealings before moving to Mullen....

I'm talking about the conversations and offer made between Tennessee and Mullen / Clint Dowdle side.
