They actually played well but need to be faster.

Average at best

 

[blackmon]

He has to have time to get some talent on the team.

Indeed...we leaked away for years...and it will take years to repair.

 

[vSphereGuy]

I wouldn't say be faster. I would say take better angles.

 

[governmentmule]

you do have to like the effort,the Vols could have rolled over,but they didn't

 

[OrangeBloodKnepp]

Closer game than last year. Just don't have comparable talent. We need players in the worst way. If we had last years receivers and quarterback we would have won but they're in the nfl so it is what it is.

What breaks my heart is what could BJ do with the offensive talent we had last year? We won't ever know and neither will he. We do not have an offensive skill player that would start on another SEC team. Besides maybe Pig but that would just be as a slot receiver.

 

[djohnnyg]

Yeah the Fulmer days really sucked.

It was a bummer having a program that was respected and competitive and could actually win an sec game on occasion.

that is very true,now watch the fan base go ballistic and hurt the recruiting,in coming years

 

[YankeeVol]

Sounds awfully a lot like Dooley's first year.........

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

over all they did fairly well and then they got gassed and the big plays started happening

Agree, nobody is admitting this. The defense played very well considering how long they were on the field.

 

[Sgt_Nick_Fury]

If there is a good thing to take from this Worley looked confident at end and we went down swinging. Don't blame last int on him, he was in desperate situation. Worley needs work but unless we burn a redshirt I think he is the unquestionable starter. He does look capable of being better then he has played. Maybe he just needs a sports psychologist. Peterman? Please never again. After AP game no one should have been surprised.

You are right. We don't have any players that would start on our teams of the 90's and early 2000's. We need recruits!

Indeed. Fulmer has had great success in the NFL and all the other colleges that have come calling after he was so wronged by TN.

 

[Orange_Crush]

i would say it is all ready happening on volnation,totally uncalled for too,CBJ has to have the time to get everybody coached up for his schemes and needs to get more talent,it is going to be painful to watch

Hope he has thick skin because we have a lot of trigger fingers on VN.

PS: I agree he needs time to get his system and talent established.

 

[PeytonBerry]

JMO, but while it's obvious Worley>Peterman, I don't think either one of these QB's is the answer for us. I think Dobbs is our future, and I see no reason why he (or Riley frankly) shouldn't get their chance to shine.

 

[OrangeBloodKnepp]

We had to get rid of him, Fulmer was just a 10 win coach. Those days look pretty good right now.

 

[NC_Orange]

I might as well see what other games will be on around the time we play UGA, SC, and ALA. :disappointed:

Go for it!

 

[WoodstockVol]

+1,000,000

 

[knoxvol16]

we suck

Compared to many of the other teams in SEC, yes we do.

 

[thunderfoot63]

I'd like to think they have toughened up mentally this week and I hope they can learn from this game. I did see things to be hopeful about. As long as we can continually see progress in the right direction I think CBJ can establish a competitive program in 3 seasons..

As fans and supporters.. we've just become frustrated with all the waiting we've had to have..

Forget winning the SEC, and forget wining the NC.. I just want us ranked in the top 15 again with a good record for now.

 

[NC_Orange]

I wouldn't say be faster. I would say take better angles.

Both.

 

[vSphereGuy]

Both.

I accept that.

he better be rhino hide tough lol

 

[O&W Zebra]

Another year, another Florida loss. Hate it.

 

[YankeeVol]

Compared to many of the other teams in FBS, yes we do.

Fyp
