Tauren Poole on the Radio Now

Kiffin's boys looked a whole helluva lot better than our men did this year. Just the way I see it.

 

God Bless Poole for overcoming being 4th on the depth chart in 2009 and becoming the starter.

Sure, it took one guy graduating and others transferring, but damn it he did. True Vol. Bleeds orange. Just didn't want to on Saturday.

 

.

 

Couldn't possibly have said it any better.

 

Read all the way through. All the way through..... it's easy once you try it. College kids are no where close to men until they've been there a while. Most of ours haven't.

 

Poole has and he had two years of Dooley to convince him UT was a good choice.

 

Neither have Kiffins.

 

One guy blowing out his knee before transferring too.

 

Dooley isn't a leader of much or else the team wouldn't have quit on him.

 

I'm not sure I understand this. What did Dooley lead our men to do this year?

 

I can't argue with that.

 

Stay out of jail?

 

Gotcha. Malik should find a roster somewhere.

 

Reaching hard, aren't you?

 

I don't think so? It's correct, is it not?

 

It's correct, and it's nice, and it's commendable, and it doesn't mean shit if you're 5-7 with a loss to Kentucky.

 

I never implied it did JT5. I was simply responding like everybody else does. Not asking anybody to agree with me.

I forget y'all will argue just for the sake of arguing. I can dig it though. I like doing that too sometimes.

 

Yeah, Doodles has done a fine job leading the team right off the cliff. Anyone who would follow that rube anywhere gets what they deserve.

 

How many of Kiffin's recruits are incarcerated? I'm pretty sure that was Austin Johnson's drunk ass getting arrested before the season. I guess Doodles wasn't in a "leadership" posture that evening. Jaq Smith also got arrested for busting a kid's face under Dooley's watch. Pretty sure a cop got the hell beat out of him at Bar Knox during Doodles' tenure. I guess all you have to do is sound like a character on Green Acres when you speak and wear hideous creamsicle trousers and the Big Orange World forgives you your trespasses.

 

I suppose, if you discount cop stomps early in his tenure and only count player suspensions and expulsions as minor annoyances if they don't result in incarceration.

Fine leadership, there. Top notch.
