See I think offensively they will score next week against A&M and it will be the defense and bad tackling that hurts them.

DRAMA. I ain’t about CJP anymore than anyone else. But damn, he made a correct assessment about HB holding too long and y’all freak out. Smh

Yeah, I don’t think anyone would have thought anything about it if Pruitt hadn’t stuck with JG despite disaster after disaster.

 

[amavol2]

Does Pruitt get fired?

Not if they finish this game out.

So beat Andy and continue making 4 mill a year, it’s a joke!

 

[SLICKYINC]

How do his game has any bearing on Pruitts ability is beyond me.

Sad they AP confirms beating a winless Vandy team will decide the job status of the head coach of the Tennessee Vols.

So the area where Pruitt is supposed to be an expert?

Imagine beating the worst team in Vandy history is enough to save your job.

 

[Leeleesteeth]

This is not convincing enough. This should be an AL/Arky beat down at this point.

Great. Beat a one legged person in an a*s kicking contest and all is good.

Lol. Ask that same question after we lose by 3TD next Saturday.

Absurd

 

[SLICKYINC]

Yeah, I don’t think anyone would have thought anything about it if Pruitt hadn’t stuck with JG despite disaster after disaster.

We all know what he did with JG and I get it. But the plan was to play both QBs, everyone who is complaining about it knew that. Pruitt is also right when he said he held the ball too long. Hyatt was open for a long time on that timing route, ball should have been out a long time before the non-fumble happened. I also don’t think he got “pull” because of that play.

Well here ya go, because someone did


OK let's say the Vols lose next week...3-7 is equivalent to 6-6 or 7-5 in a normal schedule. I'm not saying there isn't problems because there are, but I think the power people think staying the course unless you have a top tier guy is the way to go. You guys have your narrative and don't want to listen to anything except what you want. Just is what it is to quote Rick Clausen.

Fire fulmer

 

[volatil]

The conversation was about Bailey having the shortest leash on the team. Some said it was the plan to play both (which I agree). But it was said that move was nothing to do with a leash.

Then Pruitt made the comment at halftime.

No drama.

My god he is putting wayyyyy too much stock into this game.

 

[gordonr24]

The fact that Vandy is a measuring stick is how far this program has fallen.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

So Shrout is holding the clipboard now. This staff makes 0 sense.

 

[jakez4ut]

More good than bad. But the bad against this vandy team is really frustrating.

Really want to see them finish strong.

 

[mkil5]

It is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen.

 

[MarcoVol]

Lol what’s the drama queen narrative gonna be now that HB is back in?

Except we would have been 5-7 because we would have lost to Oklahoma out of conference. Also not a guarantee this team would have beat Charlotte or Troy

FWIW....I didn’t know about it haha.

Still believe it was a bad move to pull after that play, even if the plan all along was to play both.
