You have to earn respect. It is not given. If everyone is patient you will see UT back on its (A) game in a season or two. Just hope Lane is not ousted before he is able to get establish.

Good points.
As far as Lane being ousted, all he needs to show the AD is the Wyoming game film.
Job security.

We knew this was going to be a rough year. Just hate to see Nick get hurt and on that note, finally something worth reading in the No Silence Blog. Usually pretty lame but on target with this one.

no qb play = no respect. its a miracle ut can run the ball as well as the are. everyone knows thats all they have yet they are still able to do it. give it some time folks. ut WILL b back

Work on Special Teams (alot), Fix QB errors and prevent the "big play" on Defense and we beat Auburn! We should not have any more than 20 pass attempts on Saturday. Let the BIGS take care of the rest. TCB and Go Vols!
Bloodrunzorange writes:
I agree with you Phil. You are doing a great job on the Radio in Nashville. Don't give up...Clemson is looking great for you! Go Vols!
jimmyrayvol writes:
On a daily basis you bash CLK, and we all know you don't like him. Hell DaMan I don't like him either, but he's our Head Coach show some love. Fulmer is gone, so move on and support the new kid in town.
TommyJack writes:
Yeah, DaMan. BJ is ripping azz against the likes of Glenville St., Presbyterian, and Wofford.
Are you FHCPF, or his next door neighbor?
UrbanCryer writes:
DaMan, i have a question for you. what do you think ut's record would be this year if ut had tebow, bradford, mccoy, or at least a good qb? could our starting qb even start for another sec team? once again no qb play. fulmer is gone get over it. you dont like kiffin, we get it(and dont care).
UrbanCryer writes:
i forgot to mention ut had the flu.

owpgfam#615513 writes:
I'm really tired of the "fans" talking about the qb "problems" when you have inept play at the reciever positions. A qb is only as good as the talent around him. If I remember correctly there were about 7 dropped passes by the recievers. I'm talking passes that were in the numbers. Why is nobody talking about that? Oh, because you guys screaming about the qb are such football experts (note sarcasim) you don't see the inept play around him. No wonder we didn't get a qb to sign with us last year. Oh, I forgot about the one that committed then backed out because of all the booing of the qb. The fumble was a bad play, yes, but it appeared to me that he was just trying to make a play. He can't win here. That's for sure.
Vol86 writes:
Sorry folks but without an ol, wr, and qb we wont play well. IT will take Kiff a couple of years. Judge him on signing day this comming Feb.
midtnfan writes:
Very good post.
DedicatedVOLFAN writes:
OH yeah BJ is killin it! Would he kill it against a DIV I SEC opponent? Let me know when he has a game against Auburn, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina....You get the point. Evidently two different coaching staffs seem to think NOT!
GO VOLS!
volpreacher writes:
And this comes from a fan of a team that loses to teams like Ohio. Get a life. Go to the MTSU board or do they even have one? lol
The rest of you guys, we will go to a bowl this year, so what's the complaining? 5-7 last year.
GreerVol22 writes:
hard to judge even then, this team was so devoid of talent that it will take several classes to recoup. Also very few signees turn into impact freshmen year 1 so it will take a while.
caverunner writes:
anyone that thinks, or thought that this was going to be a banner year for UT really didn't pay attention to everything that was going on. It's going to take them a couple of years, perhaps 3 to get back to the form they use to be in. All we can do until then is support CLK and his staff, and especially the players. ALL the players.
usnavyvol writes:
Day after day u come here and spin ur words. Truth be told u have no idea what is happening in this program nor do have any idea how this will unfold. In other words u talking about the VOLS is like an Alabubba player taking any college exam, it just don't work. Don't go away mad, just go away....What a tool.. Class of 93'
ctownvol writes:
Spot on brother. DaMan is obviously Phil's alter-ego.
Vol_in_Mich writes:
Marc, I always thought you were a little smarter than average. Being a fellow Chattanoogan, I now know why.
Like I said before, as bad as our QB plays, the lack of depth & the mistakes this team makes, we are only a few plays away from 3-1 or 4-0. Considering what they have to work with, I think Kiff & Co. are doing an outstanding job.
The future's so bright I gotta wear shades!
GO VOLS!!!

He ain't old enough for a wife.
GO VOLS!!!
ps: Hey TJ, my nephew started on both the OL & DL & got a sack for the Pioneers last week. We'll be down to see them this week.

Probably...
After all, bones never lie.

Nah. Even Vicky knows Phil had to go.

Lets just shut'em up and beat the tigers Sat. GO VOLS!!!!
Moaninglikeheck writes:
I find it freaking HILLARIOUS that the same people who torched Fulmer these past few years are saying things like, "He's our HC, you aren't a true fan if you don't support him, show some love" ...etc. You have to appreciate the irony.
TommyJack writes:
Cool. Haven't seen an ER game in years. Would love to go sometime.
GreerVol22 writes:
more tabloid writing....atta boy JA...
TommyJack writes:
No irony here, Moanin. Torched him then. Torch him now.
Moaninglikeheck writes:
Question.
When will it become OK to start bashing Kiffin? I want to lay low until then. There has to be a benchmark where it becomes OK and your fanhood doesn't come into question.
Is it when he starts gaining weight? Inquiring minds want to know.
TommyJack writes:
I like your idea of laying low.
NobodyCares (Inactive) writes:
Why don't you just lay low and we'll rattle your chain when it is OK to start bashing Kiffin.
ctownvol writes:
Second! Can we take a vote?
Moaninglikeheck writes:
Sarkisian has an 0-12 Washington team turned around in one season, beating USC and hanging with LSU. He's doing it with the talent he inherited.
What's the difference?
What is Auburn doing differently? They stunk last year too.
When do the excuses start running out for Kiffin? When do WE stop making excuses FOR him?
TommyJack writes:
Also Maryland...and Louisville, and maybe Illinois. FHCPF might be the perfect guy for the Big 10.
ctownvol writes:
Louisville. The Big ol Doofus will be the next head coach at Loisville. I can't wait to see him wearing red and looking like the Kool-Aid guy.
Razzle writes:
Hey Boob4vols. Fulmer was 0-4 against Auburn last 4 meetings.
gnm53108 writes:
Actually thats a good question although I dont care for the Kiffin bashing,nor did I care for the Fulmer bashing.
Lets see...if you win a championship within five years you have to back off for a while.If you win a nc you have to give him a pass for...4 years?
So I guess you have to give coach Kiffin 5 years to get a championship before you can start bashing him.
RebelVol writes:
I know its a little off topic, but I am glad that Tebow got drilled the other day. Now before you call me ruthless, I am praying that he makes a full recovery. You never want to see a player, from any team, get injured that. It scared the hell out of me seeing his head whiplash like that. Especially, with a possible neck neck injury. But having said that, I hope that Urban learned his lesson. There comes a point in the game where its time to take the starters out. He was long overdue for his brash arrogance and ignorance to come back to him in a game. Now it is possible that Tebow might not play against LSU. What do think about keeping him in the game now, Urban? But here's to hoping that he makes a speedy and safe recovery, cause after all he is the best on and off the field quarterback in the nation and someone to truly look up to.

He is at least 3 ego's on this board.
99gator writes:
you may like kiffin or you may not, but fulmer had to go.
what does anyone honestly think would be happening this season if he was still around?
panties4tebow writes:
Not as shameful as losing the ballgame which we would have lost if Phil had been the coach!!!!!!!
GET LOST PANTIE BOY!!!!!!!!!!
pdhuff#552644 writes:
99, how long did it take you to get back in your recliner after falling out watching Tebow get shellacked?
Playing with a 31-7 lead.
TommyJack writes:
You're not all wrong, Bob. But where were you last year during the N.Illinois game? Or the Wyoming game? Or the UAB game? Or the Auburn game?
mytrifecta writes:
Excellent point. I continue to believe the problem starts at QB. The offense goes as he goes and when confidence has been lost in him it impacts moral on both sides of the ball. Crompton's numbers rank him as one of the poorest qb's in college football. His on-field decision making ability and performance speak for themselves. How could his teammates possibly rely on him? Maybe he's all we have...but until Stephens or even the JC transfer are given an opportunity in a game situation we will never know.
99gator writes:
when it happened, i saw his neck bend and was worried it was a spinal injury. so, i didn't think about anything football related at all. once it was known it was a concussion, i was thankful. i don't know how long he'll be out, but at least he'll be ok.
i had no problem with him being in the game and do not understand this criticism. there were 4 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter. i don't think it was necessary or proper to pull the starters at that point.
if the thought is, yeah but you are playing kentucky.....well, then why was tebow playing in the first place. why would tebow play in half the games on florida's schedule? they could beat kentucky without him no problem.
should tebow play against vanderbilt? they can beat vandy without him. why risk injury?
injuries are unpredictable and part of football.
someone missed a block and he got hurt. that's football.
i'm just happy he's going to be ok.
but, i have no problem with him having been in the game with 4 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter.
ctownvol writes:
How many times a day do you change names? Pathetic.
PennVol writes:
I believe Washington has a pretty good qb but they are also 1-2 after losing pretty badly to Stanford. If Crompton plays just "average", we're probably 3-1 with a respectable loss to Fl and ranked in the Top 20. I find it very strange that Stephens isn't getting a chance after the 2 qbs were supposedly neck and neck during the spring. It will be interesting to see how this unfolds if we lose another game due to Crompton's ints or fumbles.
UrbanCryer writes:
never claimed to be a genius and crompton limits what UT can do on offense. period. end of story. sorry.
