Got to learn to play perimeter defense which has hurt is all season.....Vandy got good looks the 1st half they just weren't going in or they would have beat us. And Barnes could do a better job at using TOs when the other team is on a run.

We are not even close to being a top 10 program since Holly took over
100% correct! She gets used and abused against good coaches.....Her teams make the same mistakes every game against good competition and she has no offensive coaching skills. UT wins games with talent....not because she out coaches anybody. Folks that watch the games knows this.

Day 8 of snow and ice on the ground and roads here. Gonna be 44 degrees here today so let the thaw begin. Sunday high 62 and thunderstorms....only in West Tn. can it go from highs all week in the teens and low 20's....lows at night between 0 and 8 degrees and then jump to the 60's and thunderstorms. Thank gosh I've been able to keep my 'Beer Frig' stocked to the hilt the last 8 days.

FCBJ said, more than once, that Jennings was meeting with the LBs in their room, that is apparently NOBODY ever saw him around the team post injury - keep up The reality is that Jennings, for whatever reason, abandoned the team till Jones was fired, then came back and left again with his rant
Yep...it happened. Most of the time when a player is out injured...they....umm... you know...stick around and 'Support' their teammates.

The offense is/was awful and MM was never going to be more than a average QB under that system. Malarkey in his Sunday presser saying he thought things were ok and the OC was doing a good job and he wasn't going to make any changes got him fired and should have. The question is who are the Titans going to get? Rumor has been going around for a couple of weeks that the GM who came from New England wants McDaniel's.....but the NFL talking heads are saying he's headed to the Colts after the playoffs?

Wish him the best of luck......Thought he might be a better fit for Pruitt's offense but seems he just wants gone. Doubt he'd be rehabbed enough to play in the Spring so he will be behind the curve anywhere he is.

One other thing....not sure how widely known it is, but OU's QB in 1985 was Troy Aikman, who is from Oklahoma. Miami broke his ankle during the game, and per my room mate, that's the main reason they won. Aikman was replaced by Jamelle Holloway, who was better suited to the offense OU ran anyway, so Aikman transferred to USC, where he nearly won a Heisman, then got drafted and the rest, they say, is history. (-: My old room mate's best friend played HS ball with Aikman and was a TE/WR. Said Aikman frequently left red marks on him if he didn't catch the ball in time. You didn't want to get hit by an Aikman pass in the stomach or back. Forgot he started out at OU.....He finished at UCLA IIRC.
