Vitale bias is unreal. How is this guy on tv

Ehh I don’t see it as bias. He gets excited no matter who wins.

Maybe my bias against him is clouding my judgment lol

 

[Kingston Vol]

Strongly disagree with your point that this is an unappealing job.

The roster isn't good. Recruiting is tougher. I'm not saying a coach can't be successful here but my point is that the turnaround is going to take longer than many believe.

That man is 3x the coach Butch was. If Barnes had the amount of talent that Butch had, we would be sitting in the top 10 right now.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Doesn't follow the "only way we win big is if we hire a splash hire" crowd.

I’m not saying it’s the only way. Just saying we’ve tried the other way three times in a row and failed. The program can’t afford another miss.

If he can figure out how to get this team to finish games, we could make a run in the tournament. Frustrating though, last year and and in this game we dominate the first half and end up losing.

I know you’re joking, but no way.

... yesterday they finished the game.

 

[BigTimeVol95]

Didn't get williams the ball enough down the stretch and the press hurt us some. think we are a sweet 16 team though

You are arguing with a crowd who have accepted that slightly better than mediocre as the best Tennessee can do.

Last year was youth. This team is still learning how to win. Williams, Bowden, Bone, Turner, and Fulk are all sophomores. Daniel played in a smaller league. Schofield and Alexander are juniors but haven't consistently played.

Yesterday was a big step with guys being clutch down the stretch.

 

[HankHill]

You’re missing my point. USC clearly didn’t need a “HOME RUN PROVEN COACH” at the time. They had a capable assistant to promote.

Who’s the capable assistant on UT staff you’d promote?

Ok if they didn’t, then why do we need the homerun proven coach?

Roster is not bad and recruiting "toughness" is overblown.

we have a large amount of players out for the year. Who you saw play last week is not the lineup that is inherited.

You think Florida is easy to recruit when the entire country has a focus on it with three major programs instate?

 

[JacketVol]

You stop yelling at folks?

VN went nuts on me and couldn’t hardly read anything. It was small ect but I HAVE NOT STOPPED YELLING. WE NEED A NEW COACH SOON.

 

[butchna]

Theres nothing better than watching you get worked up 😂

Weak. Your rep deserves better than “you are!” comebacks. :disappointed:

 

[McGeesPub]

You're arguing over a one year sample. Let's wait to see if this success is sustained beyond having a top 5 pick QB. It's not unusual for a mediocre coach to come in and have success with a talented team. Especially if that talent is in the right positions.

Edit: and yes, I realize he's been the coach there for two years, but people are specifically bringing up this year's 10-2 record.

 

[mccrackb]

Completely agree so why hasn't Currie come out and said so. Doesn't really make sense to me

Catbone you are a Whiner otherwise known as ‘lil bi**h

 

[volfanCLT]

Can someone name the last 3-5 “homerun” coaches that have been hired?

 

[Catbone]

Well bless your heart. I see the coat hanger only kind of worked. I envy people who don't know you.

Do not talk to one of our best insiders like that please

We can show the dumpster dive coaches we've hired.

 

[Catbone]

It's such an honor to learn from an expert in the field. Keep talking. Maybe eventually you will say something smart.

 

[volfanCLT]

Sure you can list those if your heart desires.

That wasn’t the question but do you.

I know what your stupid question was.
