I think 3-9 is more likely than 5-7. I too think Peterman closes out the season, making 3-9 the more likely scenario. Any chance 3-9 gets Jones fired? Its hard for me to believe Tennessee keeps a guy that goes 3-9 or even 4-8.
I really think he'd have to beat his wife or something like that to get fired after this season. And if his wife is ranked, don't see it happening.* *Couldn't help myself
I don't think anything short of a complete public melt down of Ryan Leaf proportions or an off the field scandal will get Jones fired before year 4.
Two big problems we have are that there are 30 players on this team who have never set foot in the state of South Carolina, and 21 who have never been inside the city of limits of nashville.
Teasle: Are you telling me that 200 of our women against your boy is a no-win situation for us? Trautman: You send that many, don't forget one thing. Teasle: What? Trautman: A good supply of body bags.
You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in guerrilla warfare, with a man who's the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. At Halloween parties his job was to ignore enemy personnel. To not be attracted! Period! Win by attrition. Well JQK was the best.
If Auburn comes out and just flat embarrasses us - which I think they will - they may just give up. Every game for us after Auburn is winnable, IMO, but given the inexplicable losses to Mizzou and UK coupled with getting boat raced on the Plains, they may just mail it in.
Dooley - errr - Butch could literally lose the remaining games this year and molest Smoky at midfield during halftime of the Missouri game and he would still be retained.
