I was in the Jeff Brohm camp - not sure how that's looking these days.  I'm happy with Pruitt and am giving him a mulligan for this year since his 5th year quarterback is a head-case. 
He's got Purdue trending up. Good coach. It's tough to win at Purdue.

Were you guys on board with Schiano?

He's making Rutgers look like an actual football team again. He won't win big there, but at least they have a pulse now.

No to many ties to the Penn State fiasco 

I wish I could cheer some for Penn St. now that I live here, but they still have a scoundrel for a coach (do some research on his actions with Rape allegations at Vandy).    
President Harry S. Truman said: “The fundamental basis of this nation’s laws was given to Moses on the Mount.  The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teachings…  If we don't have the proper fundamental moral background, we will finally wind up with a totalitarian government which does not believe in rights for anybody except the state.”

I wasn't on board with Schiano, but I wasn't up-in-arms like the mob of fans who got him immediately rejected when it was announced.  I thought trying to tar him with the Penn St scandal was unfair, but I didn't see him as a good (cultural) fit in Knoxville.

I watched Wisconsin last Saturday the have a good team and an excellent quarterback.

Even if we had your QB our Tater Head coach wouldn't let him play.

Can’t wait to use this in the next “Trump is a scoundrel” thread you start. 


A quarterback here, a couple of turnovers there, a busted coverage here, a bad penalty there.  Mere twists of fate.
A conspiracy theory here, a denial there, a QPQ here, a lie there, a fraud here.  Mere twists of fate.

I’m a TB Bucs fan and Schiano was awful there. Had Schiano been like our 4th or 5th choice I would’ve been more accepting but considering he was THE GUY Currie had in mind all along was just totally unacceptable. Hindsight’s always 50/50 but yes he at least gives your team a competitive advantage when he’s on the sidelines compared to the useless lump we have at present.

The Horrors!!! How Did These Guys Survive?

Many of you must have  gone thru hell for almost an entire year without anything to bitch and whine about. An 8 game winning streak must have been unbrearable to the critics.
At least that past year gave time to think up some really neat junior high  names to call our coach.
Potential recruits must love them.

Again...there are fans and there are critics and the critics are never happy unless they have something to bitch about.

Of course the 8 game winning streak was against a buncha tomato cans and now we can’t even beat them, play a team with a resting heart rate and those are 30 pt blowouts ........ glad you enjoy it though and to each his own

Is that the best you got?
If it's so easy why doesn't every team do that with easier schedules?
When UT reached 8 games it was the longest unbeaten streak in the NCAA.

There are fans and there are critics. The Critics can even manage to whine about an 8 game winning streak.
Life must be miserable for a critic

Eight game win streaks don't mean squat when you start your year getting beat by Ga. State and BYU then get mauled when you play with the big dogs.

New year same song different verse.

As I posted....having to wait almost an entire year to start bitching and moaning about Pruit/JG/ Fulmer must have been excruciating.
Trying to keep score here...you want to fire Pruitt, and Fulmer and run JG off now?
Do you want to fire Barnes yet or do you want to wait until he loses a game? We play the #1 team in the nation the second week of bb season so your odds are that you won't have to wait long.
Why not go all in and fire Randy Boyd also...might as well make a clean sweep and fire the UT president . To kill a snake you cut off the head.....Just a suggestion.

Roadie your liberalism is showing you're like the leftists democrats who refuse to admit what's wrong with their agenda and their party. You wear those orange colored glasses refusing to see what's really going on/

I've watched this shit show go far to long now we have an old coach as AD who was fired for being incompetent but someone or a bunch of someone's pulled the strings so he could come back and be incompetent again.

So yes I would fire Fulmer for the decision he's made to hire Pruitt which shows again he is out of his element then I would fire Pruitt along with his entire staff.

Then tell the donors who were behind bringing Fulmer back to pony up the cash for their mistake or be banned.

Unlike you real Tennessee fans are tired of our football program being a laughing stock of not only the SEC but the entire country.

So man up and put on your big boy britches there's a real world out here.

Bill O'Brien is out there.

Lots of for NFL coaches have done very well in their college returns.

He did a great job at PSU, bring the program back from the NCAA penalties.

I bet they would like to have him back now - the luster is coming off of Franklin, who I do not like at all.
