Ok, so if it's Freeze, given what he did with Bo Wallace, can he do the same with JG? Seems like Wallace was more athletic than JG. Also If it's Lindsey, how does JG and Shrout fit his system? Seems like same issues he had with Stidham...yeah ,I know Gus was butting in.

I think turning around a struggling offense at Tennessee would give Freeze better exposure than going to a stacked Bama. Plus it looks like he is just another enrollee in the Nick Saban Coaches Rehabilitation program. Who wants to get chewed out by a midget on national television?

Didn't hold back Kiffen or Sarkesian.

If one of those times is in the playoffs/NC game? Line forms to the left.

Wallace wasn’t more athletic...coached up to appear so. Chad Kelly was...just couldn’t fix his off the field demons.

So, if it’s Freeze, how does this move the needle on your win predictions next year?

I was at 6-7 wins. Assuming recruiting closes as we expect, I would be +1.5 games at 7.5-8.5 regular season wins

If freeze, i go up to 6. If we also land a transfer QB like Francois or someone then 7.

Most were saying 6-6 w/ Helton. Issue is Pruitt wants us to look like Cheney at UGA. Not sure Rev would do it. Personally, I think he is waiting on call from Bama. It'll be Lindsey or Sharky.

I don’t think that’s exactly how Pruitt wants us to look. He is uber aggressive so he’s not going to just sit back and watch an offense that can’t put up points. I think he also knows it’s going to take longer to have a great defense here then it will a good offense. So he wants someone that can be more creative.

And the unreasonable expectations are already flying. 8.5 wins? Wow...

As a top end, maybe.

W - Georgia State
Push - BYU. Quality win over Wisconsin last year, absolute trash wins everywhere else. Finished 6-6 and will visit Neyland, edge to the Vols.
W - Chattanooga
L - Florida, we can't catch up quite yet.
L - UGA, nope
Push - Miss State. They lose a ton from their excellent defense. Will have a new QB. Game in Knoxville. Too close to call right now.
L - Bama.
Push - South Carolina. In Neyland, it's come to the last possession for years, but we are finally building up, not trending down. Game in Knoxville. Edge to the Vols
W - UAB. Not a cake walk, should be a win
W - KY. They lose Snell and the strength of their defense. Business as usual.
Push - Mizzou. They lose Lock which is HUGE. The 2 RB's return though. Game in Columbia. Freeze may have our offense ready to run with them. Edge, Mizzou
W - Vandy. Shurmur is gone. Shaw may be leaving soon. Game is in Knoxville. The team remembers some laying down the year before and will absolutely not let it happen again.

So I have 5 wins, 3 clear losses, and 4 games that can swing either way. It seems like 7 is a reasonable prediction, and 8.5 is not a far reach depending on how those push games shake out. A lot of variables to see play out. Upon closer examination, with Freeze, I would likely stick to a 6-8 win prediction.

I think we see a +2 win differential simply because Mizzou and Vandy lose good QBs. Maybe just maybe BYU isn’t WVU and we get that one to. We maintain status quo with the SECw win over an MSU team with another new QB. Kentucky... lol. 8 wins baby.
