It was a disappointing loss no doubt. They will improve. I feel we got out coached in a major way. GA ST came in feeling like they had a chance, prepared hard for the biggest win of their schools history, and pulled it off. Tennessee has enough talent to beat lots of teams. Ga St included. Just didn't get it done. Anyone that played sports has probably played in a game where it should have been a blowout but was close or ended in a loss. All these young men hear is how good they are and how well they are going to do and how they compare to others in college. They just weren't prepared and that's on JP. That's one JP will take and remember for the rest of his career. Hopefully he builds on it and doesn't let that happen again. I am confident that won't happen every game.
That loss is going to make it that much harder to get to a bowl game though. Missouri lost one they shouldn't. South Carolina probably lost one they shouldnt. Aside from Alabama, SEC didn't have a great Week 1 as far as dominance goes

eric gray might be special, he played like he was hungry. Banks at linebacker wasn't bad, he had some big hits. I assume your talking about Toto, he may be special as well.TreyB":2jg5nq28 said:
The best thing I see is we have a qb in next years recruiting class.
The bad is never ending

Good
Most freshman lived up to the hype and we will see them play a lot of football at TN. Especially the RB and LB. Special Teams played well.
Bad
Both lines looked weak. We didn't throw the ball near as well as I expected us too but that has a lot to do with the OLine. I'd like to see Jennings get the ball more for sure.

The good is I was still moving things to the new house and didn't see the debacle.TreyB":ri3bobe0 said:
The bad is we lost to Georgia State and hopefully that's not telling of the rest of the season.
Side note...did you see where a 41' cruiser was docked as part of the Vol Navy and caught fire at 6:39 am and sank? It was a forthshadowing of the game. :bash:

I saw this on FB and posted that VOL nation entered the transfer portal after that mess.... Sad for sure. I felt like other than the first quarter they were outplayed by GA St. Sure they had fumble that resulted in a GA St. TD, but rebounded and had 2 nice drives, resulting in TDs. Then, everything went down hill fast.
he won't be fired during the season for sure and rightfully so. No matter how bad that loss was, we don't need another coaching search. I still say give him a couple more years believe it or not. With that being said, he better pull out 5-6 games this season, some how, some way.TreyB":kud3dt93 said:
I'm not taking up for Pruitt as I'm not sure he is capable of the task.

JPs press conference today wasn't much to get excited over. He plans to have the defense "keep it simple" again this week vs BYU and kept talking about inexperienced players.
I do think we see a much better team week 2.

He has to almost completely flip this roster of linemen, on both sides of the ball. If they didn't have SEC quality lineman last year, there not going to have it with 1 full recruiting period.

Qb as well. Anyone that thinks he is average at best (or better) is kidding themselves. I bit my tongue over the summer after bashing him for two years thinking maybe I'm wrong about the kid. First game of the season brought all his flaws back to the forefront.
Sure he has "ok" stats over his career if you want to look at it that way.
Forget the stats, give me someone that will take risks downfield. Give me a vocal leader, give me someone that can live up to being duel threat, give me someone that doesn't slide a yard short of a first down when they could easily pick up 3-5 more yards. Give me someone that can WIN games even if it means throwing some interceptions. Give me someone that can pump fake (never seen this out of JG). Give me someone that can see, understand and read a defense. GIVE ME ANYONE OTHER THAN JG at this point. Thank god bailey is coming but let one of the freshman get reps now so that JG feels the pressure and knows that his position isn't safe. Now I'm pissed at Pruitt after saying all that LOL
