Blame John all you like, but the press feeds off the fan base more than the other way around. I can't count how many times I've heard, "We deserve better than this." Really? Why?

Do other fans of other programs not donate money for their seats? Do they not spend outrageous prices for bottled water just like we do?

Not every team can win. Every game has one winner and one loser. For 17 years, Fulmer won 75 percent of the time, and other than a magical run when that percentage was 90, most UT fans were not satisfied. They said, "We deserve better."

Well, regardless of what you deserve, this is what you got. Whether you hired the wrong coaches or the wrong people to hire the coaches is up for debate. But I've listened to and watched UT games for 45 years and I've seen good times and bad. At no time did I think I was so special that "I deserved better." I pull for the players in orange no matter what. Because they are the ones who bleed, sweat and put their bodies (and lives really) at risk each time they take the field. They deserve better than the sorry fan base that feels a sense of entitlement for turning on the damn TV.

who died and made you king of everything UT? This administration spent hundreds of millions of dollars on faclities and coaches and have become a non factor since 2001. Your boy phill got carried by Cutcliff and Chavis for most of his career. Saban Les weren't around back then and the Dawgs were going through what we are going through now back then. It was far easier on Phill than it is now. And Phill still got stoned by Spurier almost every year. So stuff your entitlement garbage up your butt. We DO deserve better.
