Why oh why did this have to turn into a football thread? I'm with Hat. We come to this forum to stay away from all the football talk. Please...keep it in the football forum.
well by that argument, you're leaving out
17 points against KU, 17 points in a game against Bama that was a 7 point game, 14 points against Vandy, a 20 point game against UF, 15 points in the win over UK, and 14 against Miss St....among some others
1. KU 2. UF (he came off the bench and scored 20 and we lost) 3. UK
sorry if i'm not excited over 17 points versus bama or 14 versus vandy (in a loss) or miss state.
among some others LOL. u only prove my point.
my point was he performed during the season and we needed him to.
Yes he was horrendous during the tournament and probably did need to be benched at some point; if you were saying that I'd have agreed with you. But that's not what you're saying, your saying the team is inifinitely better if he leaves and goes somewhere else - which his stats in season would suggest otherwise.
Putting up points btw is production and production is still putting up points. A player putting up double digit points, whether it is in a win or a loss, is still a good performance because they scored double digit points. If it's 17 points in a close game that a team just scraped past against an inferior opponent like bama, guess what? The team still needed for him to make those points to win, and he did (without his 17 we lose to KU, without his points against bama - if you look at the margin - we lose, without his 15 against UK we lose; there's a few more games that went that way too)
I didn't prove your point; you said that he performed poorly all the time unless he was playing college of charleston and have said he needed to be gone/transferred/kicked off the team
I say he was productive in the season and we wouldnt have gotten to the spot we were at at the beginning of the tournament without him. He was important. Yes he fell apart mid march, but he was important and productive during the season to even get us to march
Where's the SEC title Fulmer was going to win after 2005? How did the one game Prince played at point guard in his time in Knoxville turn out?I have no doubt the OP along with his loyal band of laughable followers will be on board with the football team's success just like they are currently riding the BBall Vols success.
Their criticism of JP Prince and Coach Pearl almost mirror the criticism being dealt to the football coach. It's very predictable.
A reconciliation to the basketball team and coach has been attempted, and I expect a similar outcome for our football coach in the future as well.
Go Vols, and Expect to Win!
How'd that "John Calipari wouldn't win big in a league like the SEC" thing treat you this year?I have no doubt the OP along with his loyal band of laughable followers will be on board with the football team's success just like they are currently riding the BBall Vols success.

Is this reconciliation going to anything like the one you swore I'd have to have with Fulmer when he returned to glory? I'm still waiting on that one.I have no doubt the OP along with his loyal band of laughable followers will be on board with the football team's success just like they are currently riding the BBall Vols success.

Just as it is easy to predict it'll take you 3-5 years longer than sane people to figure out Dooley sucks, just like it did with your hero Prince Phillip.I have no doubt the OP along with his loyal band of laughable followers will be on board with the football team's success just like they are currently riding the BBall Vols success.
