Tennessee's Future

Fulmer/Kiffin/Dooley combo left us SEVERELY depleted on the O-Line. Didn't Dooley have a year where he signed 1? We lost Dan Skipper to Arky when Chaney left. Then, we stopped playing that physical style of football. And, after Pittman left, we have not had even a half decent O-Line coach. I have no idea why. That's my 2 cents from the bleachers anyway.

 

You cannot be serious. This has to be a prank. He has completely lost it.

 

Nope. Watch yesterday's press conference. He also mentioned the fact that he'd won 9 in a row about 80 times.

Although, he failed to mention that the vast majority of those 9 teams had a .250 winning percentage or so.

 

It started when Chaney was given the full reigns to the offense under Dooley. What was a physical(if undersized) line, became a one catered toward his pass-to-open-the-run identity, and while we had respectable run games in 2013 and 2015, we've relied heavily on an OL that was NFL bound and didn't have a lot of time in a system(2013), and a QB that could open up the running game playing the front half of our schedule in 2015 where he hadn't the years prior. Hall and Jones played a part as well, but Dobbs is what opens up the run in this pitiful offense.

 

There is no way he said that. No possible way.

 

2013 class had zero o linemen in it I believe.

W. T. F?

 

Spoiler Alert: We are the "before" part of that story, not the "after".

 

I just read that to my wife and her bottom jaw dropped six inches.

 

Can anyone fact check that Wall Street journal comment?

But were they there because they were in awe of his accomplishments like he said?

 

Doubtful, but we know he's going to spin it to make him look good.

 

Anyone with a wsj sub that can give a quick synopsis?

 

Says Butch would be glad to give Warren Buffet financial advice if asked.

 

I know BPV is writing up a letter right now requesting Butch come speak at his company.

I read the article. It's actually pretty bland and noncommittal about Butch, though Butch is definitely the protagonist of the piece. It just details the fall of Tennessee football and Butch's efforts to fix it.

Most interesting line in the article is probably this:

 

I wonder if botch could sell some liniment to Josey Wales?

 

Now there's a game day sign. That quote, cited from the WSJ.
