Ok so this will rub people the wrong way but Im looking for some decent feedback. First, Fulmer doesnt excite me at all - in fact, its the opposite. It feels old and stale. In addition, what little insider info I have on him isnt good (this was from when he was fired). Hes power hungry and always has been in my opinion (which means Gruden is out for all the Grudenites). Regardless, he hasnt been involved in college football in a decade, no one hired him after he was fired, and now hes rumored to be looking at Les Miles - who also went unhired after being fired (and LSU seems to be doing fine without him).
So what Im asking is - why does hiring retreads that didnt get hired by anyone else feel exciting? Because Fulmer bleeds orange? I bleed orange and I have no business near an AD office or football field.
I fear Fulmer is on a power run to get back everyone that wronged him when he was fired. Thats the wrong motivation. He has no attachment to younger coaches or fan bases. In the end, he doesnt excite me and neither does Les Miles.
It feels like Retread University.
