Not going to see this happen until JG is gone. Guy is terrible.

JG played fine. Is he the alpha dog I would prefer at QB. No but you cant put the loss on him. This loss is solely on the coaching staff. Pruitt said he was gonna play a lot of guys this game and he did. I would have done the same thing assuming we were gonna win. Problem is we were here for a scrimmage. They were here to win. Do NOT put this on JG. Honestly the best thing we could do to win is put JJ in the single wing lol. This is the worst loss I can remember but DO NOT put this on on one single player that works his butt off for us fans

I was amazed at how long the band member was down before they got to him. That will definitely be addressed.

I’m just shell shocked at how bad we looked. If we don’t do something drastically we could have the worse season in UT history. It was that bad. I’ve never heard Neyland that quite.

There was literally no emotion on the sideline, just like they had their minds somewhere else and looked to be OK with what was happening.

Not one leader stepped up and chewed Ass on the sideline. NOT ONE.

Maybe it’s something in the water........

It’s he blood of Kali. Everyone involved in the program and the fans drank the BOK. We’re stuck in this nightmare.

I think you can blame this loss on any or every segment of the entire program and not be wrong.

I’m afraid Pruitt only coaches one side of the ball and has a divided team. Not divided against itself but divided in that it’s compartmentalized and no chemistry. Butch at least was a transcendent butthole, an equal-opportunity buffoon.

It was bad. Started bad, got worse. Half the dock was closed after the fire and boats couldn't even tie up. Then that poor band guy was lying on the field while the show went on. Then that disgraceful performance on the field, students booing and fans bailing in droves.

The players' body language was terrible. Just another loss to them. They're used to losing and just roll with it. That's just so unacceptable. And I'm not sure what can done about it. We've turned half the roster and it's still the same attitude and the same lack of accountability and leadership. Pruitt hasn't been able to change that and he recruited half the players on the field.

That's why I'm saying we need the death penalty. And I'm only half joking. It's like there's this completely toxic mentality that permeated the team, and the younger guys are even getting swept up into it. Or maybe they are just afraid to truly step up because they're underclassmen and the older guys are like "lol what are you trying so hard for bruh? We're Tennessee, we suck, we're supposed to lose"

Darrell Taylor said he didn’t think they watched enough film or were mentally prepared with his last answer today.

Didn’t think anything of it until now but Pruitt said they were working on Florida tape as of about a week ago.

Said they install defenses for their first handful of games in camp. That’s a bad strategy.

Brother, that was one of the worst UT performances that I have ever witnessed. Absolutely NO heart on this team.

I’m embarrassed for them. The Oline is what really got me worried. They were dominated

At first, I thought the defense was gassed, that wasn’t it. It seemed they were not just lost, but no cohesiveness as a group, not just on the field, but how they acted on the sideline.

I’m not one to ever down a player or team, leadership starts at the top. Yes, I know, the coaches are the true leaders, but the players also need peer leadership within the ranks. There wasn’t any today on the sidelines.

I agree. And I know I'll get killed for this but I want JG to have the passion Tebow did after their loss to Ole Miss. I want him to be literally emotionally disturbed, kinda like most of us. But he wasn't. In his locker room interview with Tim Priest all he really said was we're didn't run the ball efficiently. Are you kidding me?
