Pat Forde called the Tennessee fans Rubes. I think Pat Forde went a bit overboard in this article

I think he was spot on, honestly. He didn't call out all Vowel fans, just the idiots among them.

The thing is Alabama fans were just as bad if not worse from 2000-2007................................just sayin'

Agreed but that doesn't make Vowel fans less 'rubey'. Is that a word? It is now.

Here's a good article from ESPN

Yes there are a huge amount of Rubes in the Vol Nation. They can't live with the fact that with changes in the SEC the best the Program can do is 8-10 wins a season with a special season every decade or so.

They can’t get over the fact that UCLA, Florida, Nebraska, and soon to be discovered Texas A&M are all more desirable jobs than UT.

 

[MikeJackets1967]

If Jimbo Fisher goes to Texas A&M who do y'all think the main candidates will be for the FSU head coaching job? Here's my 5 candidates for that job.

Gus Malzahn
Chris Peterson
James Franklin
David Shaw
Justin Fuente

It I were Tennessee I would talk to former LSU head coach Les Miles. If they offer 8-10 million a season he'll probably take the job.

Their “rubeness” notwithstanding, how the hell did we lose to Tennessee?

I'll never figure that out! That loss in my opinion put a dark cloud over the team that didn't leave all season.

Rhymes with Scott Frost

We played down to their level, only ... we didn't realize they sucked so bad.

Scott Frost is already on his way to Lincoln. This Tennessee team was the worst Tennessee team since the 1924 team went 3-5 and were 0-4 in the Southern Conference.

FSU is really on;y an upgrade for Shaw

FSU is an upgrade for all of them simply because of the ease with which it draws talent ... of all types. I mean, have you seen their crowds?

I think David Shaw would be the most expensive of the five coaches listed. FSU is an upgrade for David Shaw,Justin Fuente and Chris Peterson as the recruiting is much better.

Petersen just seems like a west coast guy to me. Not sure I see him leaving Washington. Probably would’ve left for UCLA had they not gotten Chip Kelly. Brings up an interesting question though. Is Washington the 3rd best job west of Texas? Perhaps Oregon would be an upgrade?

I think Oregon has slipped back to the level they were from the 1970s-1990s.

No way. Too much Nike money.

True, they got 'plenny money'. However, the results haven't been there so the bloom is coming off that rose. Considering ORE ha$ arguably the #1 bball recruiting cla$$, $eem$ Phil i$ $hifting hi$ focu$ to that program the$e day$.
