Despite time seeming to speed up as I age, the wait for football season remains as long as ever. I have no faith in this program or Pruitt but I can't stop longing for September.
The football program is going in a positive direction for the first time since 2002, which was the last time we had a competent coach and AD. At the very least, the sun has set on the days of chaos and turmoil.
I think Pruitt can get this done in a reasonable time frame, and he is the first guy I thought that about since Kiffin.
I have no idea if he’ll win any championships. I kinda think we won’t be embarrassed any more. Baby steps.
I kind of liked this one, but I also like "Fix You" by Coldplay...so proceed with caution. It made me a little emotional thinking about what it would feel like if/when the Vols actually do get fixed.
Am I just biased, or has this fan base truly been through more heart-wrenching on-the-field stuff over the last decade or so than anyone? We have a whole reel of heart breaks, last minute losses against top teams, and "almosts."
It can happen but it will depend on a lot of things falling our way. Unlike previous staffs, I don't believe that this season (year 2) will be a make or break indicator for Pruitt. Both sides of the line will be better suited for SEC play but are going to be dangerously thin. Regardless, Our style of play should be reminiscent of what we fielded during our heyday.
And when you look at the weights, neither could I. It appears that it trended down from about Butch Year 3, and we weren't particularly big then.
