I'd even have Baldy and Glitch make appearances. I'll mute Baldy if he starts any comment with "back in my day'. Cause we all know his day was a very long time ago.

I have assessed Bruin's posting and have developed my rating of him as a poster.

Bruin is a 2* poster.

While he posts frequently, he falls victim to the double down tactic when he puts his foot in his mouth. He remain consistent in finding a negative lining in anything positive.

Strengths: Consistency

Weaknesses: Use of tactics that no logical poster would use.

A lot of work remains for him to take it to the next level and be a starting caliber poster.

He does have 5-star persistence, though.

How many snaps did Brandon Johnson get against GT? I see he had 3 catches for 14 yards, but didn't really notice how often he was out there. Wasn't he listed as the starter? And didn't his uncle or whoever that posts say he would be?

Haha. Sounds a lot more fun than Bob, although Tim can bring the excitement

Not sure, but QD threw at least 3 more times to him, 2 were bad passes and one was dropped, iirc

He's very negative, but very often right. I guess we'll see. Need more data.

He is almost always right about things that he knows have happened before anyone else. Injuries, suspensions, hires, etc

I don't remember him being this vocal with predictions about the future. He did make some bad predictions during the athletic director search. He seems to be going out of his way to predict doom for this team.

I am starting to think that Larry is bitter about his buddy Dave not getting the AD job followed by the powers that be leading fulmer to believe that he was gonna be hired and then not even considering him. And in turn he has soured on all things UT.

Harping on development after we just put 6 guys in the league.

I hope they get Byrd some easy touches to get his confidence going. He dropped one on Monday night and lost another behind him on a big hit. He should get some chances on quick hitters instead of getting him hit. Get him going.

Yep. Several times, you could tell QD and the WRs weren't on the same page. CBJ has been all over the receivers for lazy route running and not keeping their eyes on the ball in practice. Callaway did a great job of helping the QB out by going up and getting the ball. Reminded me of Justin Hunter before he got hurt.

Am I supervising here or do I get some on air time? I don't know if I want to have to supervise you and Grandpa Baldy?

Also, I'll bring a box of crayolas to distract Baldy if he starts going off on a tangent.

Just thinking to myself how toxic this fan base has become. Only at Tennessee could you have your quarterback go from being so bad with his accuracy that he could not beat out Justin Worley for the starting job to getting drafted and our fanbase somehow use it against our head coach by saying things like "imagine what he could have done with a qb coach. Total failure by Butch to not hire a qb coach."

Havnt seen this mentioned but the two keepers on the zone read where just enough to keep the D honest I thought. QD doesn't have to be a bigtime runner just a few times like that.

I may have mentioned it before on here. I post and drink a lot.

I am betting our WRs aren't paying nearly as much attention to detail in practice as they have in years past.
