How can you NOT PUT THIS ON COACHING
They were verb teams and they could not out coach them

Trust me, I hear what you are saying. It was a poor showing all the way around. Our lack of talent is glaring. This has to be acknowledged before knee-jerk firings take place. Staff turnover is not our friend here in Knoxville.

Anything other than saying "this is a great moral victory and i'm proud to be a Tennessee Vol" is trolling.

Just a reminder.

Fulmers issue was Clawson. Should have kept Phil and the chief, canned Clawson and got a respectable offensive coordinator. I would bet that we would be sitting better now. Look at the 2009 roster. Can you honestly say that Kiffin inherited a team that was half as bad as he made it out to be?

Take Cromp for example, light years difference between his play the time he came in for an injured Ainge and under the Clawfense

We beat Petrino and Spurrier...does that help :)

Change/Transition can be a difficult thing, but we have to start somewhere. Recruiting class is a bright light on the horizon.

Look at it this way after the season is over no more football losses until next season. Course Martin probably won't make it to NCAA tourney either

If there was some way we could just forfeit next week I'd be ok with it. I don't remember when I've been so ready for a season to end. Thing is I have lost faith that Butch will get the job done and we'll be doing this all again three years from now.

I'm feeling sick to my stomach. Maybe my expectations were too high but I honestly don't think I can stand to watch the Kentucky game. I'm so disappointed, I don't think i can take another game.

If I weren't a Blackhawks and Braves fan I might have quit sports due to all my favorite teams being brutal these past five or so years.

Some of this boards "optimism" borders on mental instability.

"Look out. Here come the negative Nancy's".

WTH are we supposed to say after a season and then loss like this...to Vandy of all schools?

Yes. Everything is WONDERFUL.

Go play Rocky Top out of your arse with your orange colored kazoo you freaks.

That was our last chance to whip Franklin too. I guarandamntee he gets a nice offer from a big school after this year.

Interested to hear about the "cultural change" within UT Football.

The culture is still that of losing and losing badly.

Tired of all the rhetoric and the euphemisms........ Earn your freaking money you best staff in America. Regardless of what you sunshine pumpers want to say this team is NOT well coached - no way - no how.

If we can, at the least, hang on to our current commits, we may be ok in 2-3 years. Gotta keep our heads up, somehow , some way.....:groupwave::groupwave::clapping::clapping::clapping::dance2:

One thing Tennessee always does is whip the s**** out of Vanderbilt. Another curse put on is by the man in the yellow hat. I swear he was an agent for the other side.

Go back and look at my prior posts....I am so damn frustrated, like I said, you CANNOT FIRE A WINNING COACH, and expect to do better with an unknown. Those who advocated Phil to be axed, well you are same as those who voted for Obama, IDIOT, you was not happy with a 8 win, 7 win, and you called for his head... I hope, which I will not reap, you see what has been done. Now it is go coach go, but you fail to realize what we had, I see just like you do and trust me, I see another coach put in an impossible position because the fan's and the alumni has very little tolerance. A freshman team, and if we are lucky more freshman, damn I love the freshman concept....REALLY, how the hell do you expect to get back to 8 wins? YOU DON'T...Those of you that advocated Phil to get the AX, then wallow in the fact that the program has suffered and WILL NOT SEE ANY, victories for ANOTHER 4 to 6 years if Butch makes it....Idiot, idiot, idiot...Now go ahead and call your pathetic names, call me out, but here is the deal....I do not give one iota as to your feelings, cause the ones that do retort, I hit a nerve, and I know you, I know what you post and if we were face to face....You would not be as bold. So...with that said, you cowards, who like to call people names, how about take a step back and meditate on why we are here, then realize what reality is serving up.... In closing, those who did not like a winning program just because you wanted more should go F-yourself....The end.

FYI... Phil was an unknown when he was hired as HC at UT.
