I’m pretty low right now. I remember my first game in Neyland when the Cobb Webb ran all over the Akron Zips. Top of the stadium and felt like I needed a safety line to get to my seat. It was ‘89 I think. The excitement was palpable. I just can’t get my head around what has happened.

How have we fallen so far?

How have we lost our pride?

How have we turned Neyland into a library?

I see the breadcrumbs but where they lead are dumbfounding. Even on our worst day we should play hard until the end. We give up after an upstart team punched us on the nose? Pathetic.

I don’t want to hate this team; I don’t. But quitting should never be an option and they quit. Everyone is accountable. From Pruitt to the freshman walk on.

If there was a draft today would make sense. I could see why we tanked. There isn’t a draft. There isn’t a good reason today happened. It’s simply what it is.

And I don’t know where to go from here.....

Leaf isn't nearly as bad as some people are saying. He is honest about everything the Vols are currently going through. I think as he gets better, he will move up the color commentator ranks quickly.

The number 1 bust in draft history. I might feel glad he is getting his life straight, but do I really want his color commentary? Nope.

I wonder if Tennessee School for the Blind wants to field a team. Schedule them, it might be a competitive match up. Let the cheerleaders play BYU, they might be in better shape.

After the 1st quarter, I thought he did a decent job. Made a lot of valid comments

You just don’t lose to a GA State type team. It just doesn’t happen until today.....I’m about convinced Pruitt was the wrong guy...if they don’t win 2 of their next 3 games I’m so done....

Pruitt isn't necessarily the wrong guy. Still choosing to believe!!?? How do you lose to Georgia St on your own field?? Unbelievable...Worst loss in my lifetime. I'm sure I will get skewered for this and maybe I should but does Ansley seem to be particularly bright to you? In interviews I gave him a pass but I'm not sure. As Red Foreman so elequantly said. He seems like a dumbass. Again rightfully skewed. Just saying

Didn’t Pruitt want Ansley? If Ansley is a dumbass and Pruitt wanted him what does that make Pruitt?

It's just sad the season is over already.

I just don't see how the defense can be fixed, and the offense isn't good enough to win a shootout type game

Assuming we lose to BYU, the low attendance for UTC might set a record

The roster has to change, starting at QB. He just ain’t the guy. We’ve seen enough of what he can/can’t do.

I have to admit I laughed a little too much and a little too loud when JG coughed it up after the blindside sack he had no clue was about to happen

Not even saying he is but he didn't inspire much confidence in me given the interview. Gave it a pass with Pruitt choosing to hire him. No knee jerk reaction. Just saying it just screamed lack of intelligence to me

Ok, UT is the laughing stock of the SEC.
Just from today's performance, they'll be lucky to win 2 games. If you can't beat Ga State, you ain't beating ANYONE in the SEC. I saw alot today. Not what I was hoping for, at all. My patience for CJP took a huge hit, today.
