Y'all need a coach man.

I'm still gonna hold out hope Butch Jones is the answer. He talks a good game. However Saturday didn't give me any confidence that he can be a good in-game coach against a team he can't overwhelm with talent.

He has to win the SEC east this year. That is my barometer for him and his staff. He has the most talented team and gets Georgia at home.

How the fukk do you have a division wrapped up when y'all ain't even play a conference game yet? Y'all ain't even the best team in the division

Same way Dobbs and Johnson were heisman canidates before they threw a pass this year

What makes these so called 25-30 players draftable? Play on the field in high school?

NFL teams draft based on physical attributes. Size, speed, strength. It's the reason they attend practices. Gives them a chance to see if the guys pass the nfl eye test. That's where the 25-30 comes from.

We have a lot of nfl caliber athletes. Now obviously they're gonna have to go out there and prove it. But as of right now, we pass the eye test when it comes to being loaded with top tier talent. Something that hasn't been the case at Tennessee since the early 2000s.

If they haven't proven it then they are NOT NFL caliber

I've seen the other contenders play. They don't look as good as us. Only SEC teams I fear are Alabama, LSU, and A&M. We've got a decided talent edge over everyone else.

Scouts seen to think so. They keep attending our practices. Yesterday it was Lions. I wonder whose coming today.

FYI the 25-30 wasn't me it was a scout.

It's....Week 3. Teams look a hell of a lot different in November

Jeremy Johnson has a mental issue going on right now. He looked great last year in limited action and during the spring game. We've seen it with pitchers before. Guys who were all-stars forgetting how to throw.

Dobbs will be in NYC. Lotta season left to play.

Kentucky doing that whole "black out" theme against us but umm....arent you suppose to do that against TOP teams? Not only that, aren't you suppose to do that when you're at least ranked your damn self going against a ranked opponent??

True. And we have one of the highest ceilings considering the majority of our 2-deep are true freshmen and sophomores.

It's the only reason I use the Ohio State example. We'll be a lot better in December than we are right now. It's the only reason I give us a chance against the west champ. Cause Lord knows we aint ready right now.

We'll it's new to us in Tennessee cause we've had a dearth of talent the last 10 years. They've had little reason to come and see our 2-3 draftable players.

I'm actually big on Kentucky, I think they can finish 3rd or 4th in the east if they can learn how to finish games. And it's a big game for them, they ain't beat y'all since 1982

They think you've fallen to their level. Their fans have been counting that game as a W.

We'll see whether Florida is still Florida if Kentucky gets this win.
