When Arkansas Fires Pittman

[Zues1]

OLine had been a problem in Knoxville for a decade due mainly to crappy coaching and subpar recruiting.
You don't build a dominant OLine in a season.
Most freshman are not ready to hold their own.
It takes a season or two to turn highschool fat into man muscle.

Nor would he have a job.

Words of wisdeom, 'bro.

 

[Volfan1000]

Can we please hire him to replace our way underachieving O line coach? Just not recruiting and developing talent well enough.

Pittman will be snatched up by a Texas or Georgia type team to coach their offensive line.

Ellarbee is doing a solid job and has put Jerome Carvin and Darnell Weight on NFL rosters.

There must be a sale at the local liquor store

Many of our fans don’t understand that being a failure as a head coach has nothing to do with being a coordinator or position coach. It’s always surprising how many.

Regardless, we have a good OLine coach.

Mr 2-3 Alex Golesh says hi

If CJH took advice from volnation, we wouldn’t have the #1 defense in the country right now.

If Average Joe fans ran the program he would’ve never been the coach in the first place

they mostly wanted Freeze, so we would be what Auburn is today lol

It would be impossible for this staff to have rewritten so many offensive school records with an “underachieving” OL

You nailed it. Now the fahr Banks bunch have latched on to Elarbee.

Our fans just refuse to get over their addiction to firing people. They can’t accept that these are the good times

 

[OrangeTsar]

May bad. I forgot those back up tackles are really getting it done.

So we’re you in the “fire Tim Banks” club a whole back too?

 

[OrangeTsar]

You nailed it. Now the fahr Banks bunch have latched on to Elarbee.

Oh you beat me to it

One reason for Tennessee’s recent success is continuity on the coaching staff. That means so much in building relationships with players and then establishing rapport and mutual respect once the kids join the team.
We have to get out of the “fire somebody” mindset it we want long term success

One of the great entertaining aspects of Volnation is watching pure ignorance sometimes.

Oh just wait. There will me many who will scream to fire Banks soon. Probably in the next game but definitely coming soon. They prove they don't understand football

 

[wmcovol]

I hope the Vols win by 50 Sat. Then I hope Pittman wins every game the rest of the season. Damn, I like the guy but don’t give a damn about Arkansas.

Ellerbe catches hell but he’s done a good job here. Mays nor Spraggins were “developed” when he got here. Recruiting OL is a longer process due to smaller number of kids 6-4+ that can play. He had no shot at 4 & 5* kids until NCAA issues left.

 

[StuckInBamaVol]

And I thought my we haven’t played a quality complete team post in a thread was going to catch heat, but this…

 

[volroadwarrior]

A big plus for Elarbee is that he knows Heupel's offense very well and the HC trusts him.

 

[fossilfiction]

Sure. While we’re at it let’s get rid of Tim Banks also. Our defense is horrendous

This was real white text for some before this season started.

They were pushing a good OU defense around that knew we were running at them and were still getting pushed back…

Doesn’t really matter that the idgits feel the need to tar and feather a coach, any coach, as long as Danny and Heup keep their heads screwed on tight.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

He probably takes his millions and hangs it up. Think they like Fayetteville.

If they like Fayetteville, they would love Knoxville.
