1.) We know about Preston Williams quitting, the dismissal of Danny O'Brien and the weird Jalen Hurd situation. And now the team being "lethargic" and inexcusably not ready to play after a bye week and with everything to play for. All that begs the question: Are there major internal problems going on with this team? Is it simply a lack of leadership? A lack of coaching?
2.) How devastating was last night's loss as far as perspective/recruiting wise? With our chances of winning the East now virtually gone, does that negatively effect the 2017 class in any way?
3.) Is it fair to question this coaching staff's ability to develop the talent they have brought into this program? We've heard so much hype about many of these young players, but they either never get on the field or don't look prepared to play when they do.
4.) There's no question that Butch Jones has brought this program back to relevancy from the ashes. But is it a fair assessment that while he was the coach to bring us back from the abyss, he is not the one to get us back to the level that all Vol fans want to be at?
5.) Depending upon who is hired as chancellor and AD, how solid a footing is Butch Jones on? Obviously, he's nowhere near getting fired nor should anyone suggest that. But how much rope would a new chancellor/AD give him? Is he here two/three more years? Or if things turn really bad, is he out after next season?
6.) What staff changes do you think are made after this season?
7.) IYO, is UT committed to putting a championship-caliber football team on the field? Either way, back up your opinion.
Thanks for answering my questions in advance. Go Vols!
