Orange Corolla v Red Chargers/Challengers

Your pick.

It’s more of the look at me Bs he brings here

Thats rich coming from you. Lol

And what if I told you that Tesla was willing to give you a signing bonus regardless of where you decided to choose to go and that the day before signing Tesla reached back out and said hey we know what Boeing offered you and we are willing to go to 700k or match anything else Boeing throws your way. Oh and the whole time this is going on the Boeing stock value continues to drop. This is the type of thing we are up against.

So we need more closers?

 

[Power T-Rev]

and you are part of the problem

Explain

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Come on man. Not you too?

Where were all the Fulmer bashers when we were winning 10+, and SEC's? Then again when he was hired as AD?

All the man has done is give his all for Tennessee. I think we'll be fine.

The game passed him. And it's the Peter Principle. Just because he had success as a head coach doesn't mean he'd even be an average AD. They required completely different skill sets

 

[RikidyBones]

BOO @Atlanta VOL BOOOOOOOOOOO

I can make your PR nightmare go away. But I need one thing from you. Will you commit to telling these peons that Die Hard is NOT a Christmas movie?

If he gives his all for Tennessee he would know Pruitt isn’t the guy and fire him. Not arguing with fat cats to keep him. I’m sure that Fulmer wants to be remembered as the last coach to win something meaningful at Tennessee so he’ll probably do everything he can to keep that intact.

I am not a booster ..carry on.

For all the AV defenders here do you think he’s lying here???


Here’s what a booster is:

It only takes one of these and you are a booster

• Provided a donation in order to obtain season tickets for any sport at the university.
• Participated in or has been a member of an organization promoting the university’s athletics programs.
• Made financial contributions to the athletic department or to a university booster organization.
• Arranged for or provided employment for enrolled student-athletes.
• Assisted or has been requested by university staff to assist in the recruitment of prospective student-athletes.
• Assisted in providing benefits to enrolled student athletes or their families.
• Been involved otherwise in promoting university athletics.

Yep. At the end of the day, winning cures all. You need a staff that can develop players and win ballgames.

When you (not you AV, just in general) keep a guy who's an arrogant ******* and has 3 wins in year 3. You are not going to win recruits and will only widen the gap between us and the big 3.

Fulmer SUCKS and is a cancer for this program. He for sure doesn’t want the NCAA sniffing around him...we will see how bad some donors want him gone as well...they certainly have and know the dirt if needed to make a change.

Glad to see someone with cred posting what many know and have said.
The Fulmer lovers need to wake up

 

[KPT_VFL]

So we need more closers?

No we need to win.

During his final years of coaching, I don’t think that was the case. He got lazy because he thought he was untouchable.

He won an National Championship, that’s great. However, that doesn’t mean he was qualified to be an Athletic Director.

Pruitt is Fulmer’s “yes man” which is why he’s not wanting to get rid of him.

 

[tn88volfan]

3 wins next year?

What is Pruitts future?

 

[KPT_VFL]

Basically sounds like no good coaches will come work here because Fulmer is acting like he’s the coach still. Sounds like Pruitt doesn’t work for the university he works as an extension of Fulmer. This is some Palpatine type stuff.

 

[BigThunder]

The past few AD’s did plenty of things wrong, but I never could bring myself to blame Hamilton for wanting to wash his hands of the Fulmer era. Even if it meant not getting Cutcliffe. It seemed like it was always the best choice to move on.

 

[volatil]

3 wins next year?

You’re all going to be unhappy.

Bruin will argue.

Catbone will be negative.

I will still try to be funny while no one laughs.

InVol will be older (that is saying a lot).

 

[Batman1948]

We got a special group in this team and coaches guys we need to enjoy it as much as we can

I hope we're able to keep English around until Barnes decides to retire. I don't know if he's the coach in waiting but he should be.

 

[SLICKYINC]

I’m 15 pages behind but can already tell I just want to talk about guns again. Oof

 

[volatil]

What is Pruitts future?

He will try a asparagus and find he really likes it.

 

[Jimmy Football]

I’m 15 pages behind but can already tell I just want to talk about guns again. Oof

I’d keep guns away from this group right now, else you might see Fulmer and Pruitt being carried down Cumberland Ave.

 

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

I don’t understand how coaches who have been so successful at previous stops, even HC, come here and do so poorly? Do they forget how to coach? Is the pressure too much? Is it because the level of competition is harder? Or is UT just a place where once successful coaches come to die?

 

[Orangeslice13]

@Atlanta VOL what time table are we looking at here?

Next 3 years

 

[Batman1948]

It’s maddening coming in here every hour checking for updates, but I continue to do it lol. I just want to know wether to be happy or depressed.

Always choose to be happy, you'll probably live longer
