"We have to get the crowd more into the game on third down." - Butch

I'll agree, hasn't been as loud on third down first two home games.

- P Brown



Say what you will about 3rd down for what. It was a bit cheesy. But It often got the crowd loud.

I like the Hall Jones combo on the right side.

I'll do my part. I promise you that.

If we could Mosley right, we'd be straight. He was killing me Saturday. Just forgot all the fundamentals and keys they went over during the week.

If Mosley would just turn his damn head... I still can't believe after all this time and coaching, DB's don't know to turn their heads to track the ball... Even the announcers during several games Saturday said refs will give a DB more contact if he turns his head in an effort to track and get the ball... SMH

The crowd will do its part. Butch and DeBord need to do their part as well.

 

[volinbama256]

Butch on JRM: "He's going to do everything he possibly can to play in this game." He's dealing with a muscle strain.

Cortisone shots are a great thing..

Need Dobbs to do his part. I think there's enough around him this year to make it happen. Played out of his mind last year. I expect the lights will come on and come on bright

 

[Brillovol]

"Chance Hall will be at practice today. We fully anticipate him being ready to go." Butch. JRM will be at practice as well.

Butch: 'Chance Hall and Jalen Reeves-Maybin expected at practice today and both expected ready to go this week.'

At first I was like...

Now backpedaling a little

Butch says he won't know for sure if Chance Hall will be able to play until after practices the next couple of days.

But then I was like...

True. However, face guarding itself is not a penalty. The officials will throw a flag when there is face guarding with contact to the WR.

 

[WallyBalls]

when listening to butch, you always get a sense that we will get our ass kicked lol

Meh. That's what you get for listening to him in a press conference.

95% of coaches sound like that in college or the league. Coaches that get up and just wing it and getting more and more rare.

They figured out mandatory media sessions don't have to be entertaining or informative, or really require any thought (and that they are hilariously over analyzed so why risk putting anything out there)...so we get Butch-Bot 2000 and the like.

A tweet for bigboi:


If you think the Gators looked better in 1st 3 games than the Vols, here are the combined 2015 win totals of opponents:
UT: 26
UF: 9

I prefer him to talk this way tbh. Don't give the other team another reason to get fired up. It's just funny to hear it. He says this'll be the best defense he's faced but he'll say it again this year.

Show some %*$& life on offense, give us a reason to hope, and we will.

Same here. People that really get heated over it crack me up.

Yep. He needs to stop missing throws that HS QB's can make on the regular.

Need to run him and move quick. Butch's play calling and aggressiveness also affects Dobb's, IMO.

 

[volssam]

First InVol, then zhanglia, now Brillo.


Errrbody going dark around here and falling off the wagon. Come on fellas, we're 3-0, and despite our lackluster play, we're still #12, we're favored against FL, and we're the Tennessee Vols. Show some heart.


Let's do this! GBO!

 

[VolinArizona]

2/3 of Tennessee opponents were pretty comparable and they've played horrible against their 2 cupcakes

Sorry not buying app st as anything more then a decent cupcake Miami made em look like dog ****

Not even close to true.

VT is way better than Kentucky.

App State was 11-2 last year, North Texas was 1-11

Ohio was 8-5, UMass was 3-9

The schedules aren't similar. Not all G5 teams are equal.

I have yet to see tenn execute well for even close to 4 quarters

Hell app st def could of beat you if not for bounces going your way all night including the fumble into the endzone

 

[volssam]

Checkerneyland and smokey greys. Cue the "stop the gimmicks" whiny fan complaints:

"Vols wearing smoky grays per Butch"

Are they really wearing the smokey grey jerseys?

 

[Ericvol2096]

JRM being back and only having a muscle strain is THE NEWS we needed. UF is going to run the ball probably 75% of the time. We really needed him.

HUGE!

Not off the wagon, just haven't like the Debord hire since the day he was hired. I would love to be wrong but with each game he keeps confirming my initial thoughts. Want coaches that put our players in the best chance to succeed and I'm not convinced that is the case with a couple of our coaches.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Exactly. The offense we've seen thus far could put a PCP addict to sleep.

Sounds like a winning combo. I don't care if they wear pink...JUST WIN!!

Let us go!

You don't think tenn looked bad in those games for the most part?

Did you see the ass whooping miami gave app st in their house?
