My point is he could very well lose this game and the season tank. Then become a perennial 8-9 win coach. Will TN fans settle for a middle of the pack SEC team?

I guess I just don't see how you can come to that conclusion. We lost Heartbreakers to OU and UF last year and the team stuck together. I don't know why they'd fall to pieces this year.

"take it one game at a time" is one of the oldest sports clichés ever, but they seem to live by it.

Exactly.

How do we have only one linebacker on the entire team who is both sufficiently athletic and capable of getting the defense lined up correctly?

Would it be possible to have two threads, one labeled Nega Recruiting Forum and one for Posi Recruiting Forum? Let guys like this have their own place to congregate with others who are like-minded and have another for those of us who would like to discuss our Vols without having to read all this vitriolic spiel all day..

Seems to be the best way to allow everyone to enjoy their experience on here. If these guys refuse to relax and enjoy the ride, then maybe it would be beneficial to give them their own space..

I can't decide if Finebaum interrupts him so often because Tebow's stupid or because his voice is so offensive to a career radio guy.

I can't believe the amount of pissing and moaning in here. We are literally in the midst of out longest win streak since we won the damn National Title 18 years ago!

Wake up and enjoy having a shot in every game and having a great season.

Even if we lose a game the world will not end, this program is set up for sustained success and we have a lot more wins then losses in our future!

It's as toxic a fan base as there is in sports. It's terrible. Even when we win by 35 today this place will be full of complaining about something.

I never said it would happen. I said it could happen. As we've witnessed the last two years, we face a Florida team that many believe we are equal or better talent wise at every position group, more so this year than in years past. We lose this one and it further reinforces the idea that Butch could field the New England Patriots and he couldn't coach them to a win.

We lose to FL and it very well could propel the Vols to losses against GA, A&M, and Bama. On the other hand we beat FL, a huge mental monkey will be off our back and it could push momentum to an unbelievable level.

Butch needs this win more than any other this year IMO. I'm not advocating for him to be fired even if he loses all those games. I just think it will start a downward trend.

That's how the RF used to be set up...they came to us. :)

Glad to see this thread got right later on last night and this morning. That's the POWER of POSITIVITY!

Now, let's see if we can keep that going when Ohio gets their first sack here in a couple hours.

I am riding with 53! Unless you think The coaches want to lose then he has beaten out a lot of highly ranked recruits for a job. I love a good underdog story.

I wonder if JJ Mcclesky caught this much criticism for being a walk on? I am betting not

Never compare Jumper to JJ again. JJ was a playmaker for the Vols. Jumper is a playmaker too alright...for the opponent.
