    When asked if it is reasonable to be patient with the fans:

    “Well how patient do y’all think they’re gonna be with me?”

    I think it's safe to say he understands expectations

    I would like him to say something about those supporters, crying, and saying he uses their tears as lube to go in on their mother's poop chutes.

    He understands the business. He’s got 3 Years to turn this around or he’s next

    We'll know by the end of the 18 season if he can do it or not IMO, even if we go 4-8 again (we won't).

    I think he's got 5 years, though it may get hairy for him if he doesn't produce by year 3. Dipshit Jones still had a solid group of supporters halfway through season 5. I, personally, think Pruitt will be fine. Every coach who gave a damn got recruits here, even Jones. However, Pruitt doesn't seem to be creating the landmines Jones did because of that moron's BS he gave to kids. I know he hasn't coached a game, but I haven't been this confident in the success of a UT coach since we hired Kiffin.

    They have a long way to go. Grainy footage and you can tell we need to get stronger, but Pruitt wasnt please with the first workout.

    Same. And being honest with recruits has a value that lasts. It creates future opportunities with their former teammates and coaches. Lying to get people in the door has the opposite effect.

    It's a dirty business, but it doesn't have to be one that lies to high school students.

    Don't know the record. But in 3 years, we will either want him or we won't. We'll know.

    IP, you know as well as anyone here, it takes at least 5-7 years to rebuild a program in the SEC.

    He needs a qb before hes going to do anything. A gamer that can make some throws and get us out of bad plays. We will run thru more coaches until one of them has a qb ready to play at a high level.

    I care most about it taking 4 quarters to win a game and 1 quarter to lose a game. That's what jones was missing long before he ran us into the ground.

    Dobbs and Bray were plenty capable of winning a boatload of games. Honestly, Matt Simms hung around the NFL a good bit and looked halfway decent when he played. Worley was probably capable of being serviceable if he wasn't running the read option. Peterman and Ferguson both turned out to be really good college QBs. Crompton turned out to be a lot better than he appeared in Fulmer's final season. BJ Coleman, too. I wouldn't be surprised if Dormady does pretty well at Houston. Really hard for me to say QB has been our downfall.

    We'll run through more QBs until one of them gets a coach that isn't a moron.

    That's automatic contract extension performance back in Fulmer's days.
