I’m not sure. I don’t have much of a FB background. However we do have one of the highest paid coordinators in the country who I wish could’ve figured something out.

Given that he was the coordinator at UGA for the short lived Justin Fields era, I don’t have much confidence.

This was a comfort hire for Pruitt.

what does any of htat have to do with the scheme being the reason we sucked on offense?

if it's the scheme's fault, what scheme should we have run that would have taken advantage of JG's strengths?

Yeah I think the Corona excuse has pretty much been debunked. I wish the Pruitt apologists would just quit throwing it around.

Lots of people think the Corona virus is a myth and it's a world wide conspiracy. Two of my best friends have died from this myth and it appears the second wave of the myth is stronger than the first wave. This myth is not interrupting any of our basketball games or practice--------oh wait

Yes we did. The offense went from being serviceable through the first couple games to being a total liability.

it was a liability from the get go. go back and read the game thread on the USCe game.

there's not a lot of singing JG's praises..........lol.

We've not utilized him well enough and I have this sinking feeling that someday we are going to look back and regret not giving him a chance.

Probably but also he got a promotion to TE coach after just 2 seasons. And Pruitt was the only coach who hired him from the juco ranks, thus being the only one who gave him a chance at big time college football in the first place.

Man we can’t get out of our own way. I know my post sounds like I was putting words in your mouth. Not intended. The optics of the situation appears they have included a Kevin Steele tour to sell this is salvageable. I just can’t see any way this is resolved. Maybe that’s just me being a fan that’s been beat down for the past several years though.

To tell you the truth I don't see how it would be much different than it is now.

I mean how many players does Bama want... That want to be at Bama... That they don't have?

The best players play for the same handful of schools already. On top of that, I think playing time, coaching relationships, etc carry more weight than just the possibility of getting a ring.

I just don't see any evidence that the best players at mid tier schools would leave at the drop of a hat given the chance. I certainly wouldn't assume that.

Winning and development for the NFL are the #1 and #2 factors in recruiting by a wide margin.

Anyone who thinks the University allowed him to fly to CA to make sure HT stays on the team just to be fired soon is ridiculous. If Pruitt wasn’t going to be the guy he wouldn’t of made that trip.

It easily could mean a final decision hasn’t come yet

it also could mean fulmer knows its happening and just wants to wait a few days longer to try snd keep the team together.


But is Certain Pruitt doesn’t know he’s gone. Nor does Vq

JMO.
The media is running with what they think should happen based on what they know. That is very little and where there is a hole in facts they run with their opinion of what they as best they can.

The fans are running on what they want to happen and they use the medias small amount of facts and opinion to convince themselves the outcome has already been decided.
There's nothing suggesting that is true. But, UT hasn't ended the speculation yet either.

that's fine, and i don't really disagree with you on any of this, i just don't think the university is responsible for answering to a bunch of questions that are simply gap fillers for a bunch of scenarios that have basically been made up out of thin air for 3 months.

we're mad b/c the university tell us what we already know? we created the situation that we want answers on....lol.

we have a coach. there is no search. there's a compliance investigation in progress that we've gotten outside counsel for.

basically everything else is made up, and comes from speculation and opinion.

I can tell you this much for a fact. This whole investigation isn’t centered around a mf paintball game from that long ago.

Our offensive scheme sucks. DId we even avg 20pts a game this year? if we want to compete with the big boys i think we are gonna need an offense than can score 40 when necessary. We dont have anything close to that right now. These defensive minded guys need to realize that offenses are extremely powerful now and the whole "defense wins championships" isnt true anymore.

Agree. We were averaging 33 PPG and leading Georgia 21-17 in Athens at halftime before our QB play fell off the map.
