    I have been fighting this for years now, but just like my eyes being opened after the OU game in '15, my eyes are now wide open.

    We are a third tier program down there with Miss St and Arkansas.

    And I don't see us ever getting out of this hole. Good night, UT, I have and still do love you. But I must now accept you are no longer a tier 1 program.

    I was holding out hope and thought we could get back. But I am now convinced we will never get back.

    We can absolutely get back. But it doesn't just happen on its own and it won't happen overnight and it won't happen when the best quarterback on your team is JG-level.

    Oh, we can. I am convinced we won't though.

    If we fall ass backwards into a decent hire, it can be turned around (look at Clemson). Problem is we have no luck and we won't make a decent hire on our own.

    Right coach and the right qb. It's not complicated

    It's complicated as [uck fay] in Knoxville.

    With an average coach with even severe personal problems, those 2015 and 2016 team make a [uck fay]ing run. It's a damn travesty neither got even 10 wins, let alone won the division and challenged for a playoff spot.

    They could not win a 1AA championship.

    Wouldn't make the playoffs. I don't think you or I are exaggerating, either. They are fundamentally [uck fay]ed.
