So 2017 was statistically the most talented roster Butch had? Firing isn't good enough. Most of the last staff should be tried for treason, strapped to a mattress, and burned at the steak.
:rtfm:

Dude, I like my stakes medium rare! What are you... a redneck?

 

[swchandler1988]

Lol I noticed that. I’ve asked him for that picture

Your son was not cooperating. “Get over there!!!” Cracked me up

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

I'd be in trouble if I had to deal with 3 kids.... Luckily I only have to deal with 2 and they are a handful lol.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Here you go Bass! That’s awesome

Thanks!

Cute kids. Repping the orange in style.

 

[drvenner]

Did he tell you that?

Chief makes similar claims about Chief. I have not bought into the hype to this point.

There is no way we had more talent in '17 than '16. You can throw all the stats you want at it. Its false.

Lol I dunno but now we know what you look like Bass! If that was you when Pruitt was signing the helmet for the kids. That was awesome and I hope you mold them into die hard UT fans.

yeah he's one ugly sonnuva

 

[Catbone]

Pruitt has a fourteenhead

 

[StoVol]

Beautiful kids Bass u should be proud man. Congrats..

A comment that stood out to me from media days is even Pruitt was asked how he feels about the QB room/situation...

And he rewpond by saying he feels good about competition blah blah but the. He said he thought it was important to basically figure it out the starter quickly so our team can build some rythem.

I wonder even if he knows who his starter is...will he release it publicly or try and hide it from WV.

Prob will keep it close. The way I understood his comments yesterday.... he plans to let all 4 QBs have a shot to compete for the starting job but that he will narrow it down quickly as it is important that they team get in a rhythm. I'd say all 4 probably get a week of similar reps then they will judge the tape then narrow down to 2 getting the most reps so they can pick one.

I am very proud of them. Thanks bud.

I think our O line is going to be better than people think. Having Smith at LT, sliding Richmond over and adding Kennedy is going to make a difference.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Did he tell you that?

He put it in a spreadsheet.

Richmond projecting at guard?

He’s never been a tackle to me. Doesn’t have the quickness.

 

[MockingVol]

What are the rumors there that we know about?

I know he and Richt got into some arguments are there has been speculation that Pruitt either showed up at Richt’s house hammered or use some fowl language around his family.

And I think everyone knew Pruitt was gunning for that head coach job knowing Richt was on the hot seat.

Gobble gobble?

If this is the case. Vols will be running to the left side when critical yards are needed (like first and goal from the 1)

I think they'll try sliding him back to RT and see how that goes. But he could end up down the depth chart, especially if Hall's healthy. He should improve with this staff-- his work ethic is already better. IMO, he's one of those players who needed a fresh start.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

You need to get a Tennessee Football Jersey and Actual Tennessee College football signed by that man. Only great things are going to happen for this football team under his leadership.

And not from the shotgun.

THIS. Why Butch moved him from a stud RT in high school to a LT in the SEC we’ll never know, that always bugged me. Smith/Richmond at tackle, Hall/Johnson/Locklear/Carvin at guard, Kennedy at C. That feels good to me.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

And not from the shotgun.

Lol I wonder who the big body at FB will be... I'd take a big nasty from defense and run him right up the gut for a block and have the RB follow him.

That's an easy 1 yard gain.

Awesome. Saw you guys on tv. Love Hubbs smiling in the background lol
