    Here's a recent story about Bob Shoop and why he thinks he sucked at Tennessee but not anywhere else.

    "We're very aggressive in our approach and mind-set, probably more so than we were at Tennessee,” Shoop said.

    “The one thing I made sure I was going to do, after my experience at Tennessee,” Shoop said, “I was going to do it the way I wanted to do it, and I wasn’t going to compromise anything.”

    “We’re very aggressive in our approach and mind-set, probably more so than we were at Tennessee,” Shoop said.

    The picture of Jones being carried off the field for a Music City Bowl win makes me wonder what Pruitt would do if they tried to do the and shit for him. Man, Butch was such a cancer for this program.

    That [uck fay]ing Battle of Bristol trophy on a pedestal in the middle of the Anderson Building was perhaps the second most vomit inducing thing during his tenure.

    Most vomit inducing piece of shit move was putting the crystal football under some stairs. I heard it was a replica, but still, [uck fay] that shit.

    He's gone... Wasn't happy after Gruden fell through, but I liked Pruitt's resume when he came onboard... I like him more and more each weekend.

    I don't see the game like a lot here, but I know what improvement looks like and when someone knows their shit and so far, I'm happy. That Auburn win made me tingle in places that haven't tingled in a long long time (well, since I stopped NYY cold turkey).

    Was it him that broke the trophy, for what bowl?

    I don't know if it was Pruitt, buy one of the coaches smashed the 2nd place trophy from the playoffs the year before and then beat it with a sledge hammer.

    Gimme some of that, please.

    Edit: it was their S&C coach. Should have known, that dude is ten degrees off plumb.

    I think that is from our Tax Slayer Bowl Championship year.

    Every time I see that photo I want to:
    A). Barf
    B). Know who the people are to Lyle’s left and in the seat behind him that don’t want anything to do whatsoever with being seen in the photo...

    To be fair (God help me), that is ubiquitous now. The shirts and hats all say Champions on them.

    The taxslayer Bowl title should have been celebrated as a step to being back, not as the end all be all it was.

    Them again, lyle never understood that.

    He thought he had accomplished something major here. One thing about Dooley, he realized he sucked and he didn't bullshit people on it. Butch insulted everyone that came before him. He honest to God thought 8 wins was an accomplishment here.
