    He's on 104.5 right now. Regarding Butch's' offense. He just said " I don't think you can win an SEC Championship with this offense. And you surely can't without better QB play".

    He said "Now you can get right there. You can get close, but we were close this year against Alabama and Florida and couldn't win."

    Ha! B#tch will summit his 8-win regular season plateau against Vanderbilt on Saturday.

    Everywhere Butch has been previously, 8 wins was the ceiling. He does not understand that at TN, 8 wins in the bottom, effing, floor. If TN loses 4 games, it means we lost to FL/GA/Bama/OOC opponents that we shouldn't have. He does not get it, and therefore does not understand the scrutiny associated with that level of expectations. And to cover, he spouts nonsense that has nothing to do with winning.

    I would venture to say if Gruden took over the team with this talent, we would win it all next year easily.

    And it is painfully obvious to most that when you have the players/talent and the team underachieves....it's the coaching that's the problem. Those are pretty strong words from Doug, and he is usually pro-TN.

    It's not easy for anyone.

    Naw. About six years to build a team is what I've been told.

    How many quality (future) NFL players do we have on this team?

    justingroves supermod

    Hurd
    Kamara
    Barnett
    Wolf
    Sutton
    JRM
    North
    Vereen has a chance, he's played at a different level here lately
    Randolph possibly

    The freshman class has
    Kirkland Jr
    McKenzie
    Tuttle
    Williams
    Jennings

    They all appear to have "it" so far. Hall and Jones have looked good and Phillips, when healthy, stood out

    Yep.

    Maybe if we get a full roster of NFL players in here, Lyle will be able to compete for an SEC Championship.

    I gave it on good authority that Dobbs is a franchise QB in the pros.

    Trevor Daniel as a punter and Berry as a returner both have a shot I would think.
