Serious question.

let's say UT does great this year...10-2 SEC east champs or whatnot..then what? what if NEXT year they tank again with a 6-6 season? and I don't want to hear "one season at a time" because most of you on here were always saying "2012/2013..we will be back. is one winning season out of 4 enough to declare Dooley a winner that some of you are so intent on him being?

If Dooley goes 10-2 this year, then the recuits will flock in and we are on our way. In all honesty, who gives a flying sh** about 2013 at this point?

We should be fine next year...I think people put way too much into having a "stud" on offense....Our Defense should be even better next year...and that's what won it for us in '98

No. I hate the comparison , but Mike Shula did exactly that. 10 wins to 6 the next season.

I have to agree with this. I gave an answer to his question, but no need to look ahead at this point. It's about now.

All you guys? What I'm trying to say is.... we don't win this year and this isn't even a question. This is the only year that matters right now. We have proved nothing with Dooley as our coach as of 7-14-2012. If he doesn't change that this year , there will be no 2013 with him as our coach. So looking ahead means nothing at the moment. I did answer your question above , but it's really a wait and see what happens in 2012.

I see a 7 and 5 season this year..I just don't think Dooley has it to be a consistent winning coach in the SEC. sure he MAY have a good season or 2...but that's it.

so you give the man a 10 win season, but then revert to a 6 win season so you can call in the wild natives??? you sir, have too much time on your hands; predicting 2 seasons in a row, & precisely, as a matter of fact... just let time play out.

If you get your wish, I'm happy for you, but dissappointed for the rest of vol nation. I wish only success.
