Karma is a boomerang and Phil got content and lost his passion and desire for winning after he won the NC. |

And I think he would continue to recruit 3-4 stars throughout the south at a mediocre program....but the question would remain what woul dhe do with that talent? | you're crazy if you think those kids will follow him to a terrible program when they have offers from other SEC schools. | |

In the same way as I am a Vol fan win or lose. The personal attacks on him are something I do not think is right. Again, if there are facts to back up the Majors story, let's hear it. Just to throw something out there isn't right. And then to throw an insult my way-why?

Would anything that anyone ever posted on an internet message board change your mind? | |

Since you defend Fulmer to this day, you are a Fulmerite, and thus not a Vol fan. You value one person above the program. Then again, by your own words, you're a "Vol fan win or lose". You had to say that, being a Fulmerite. No other choice.
I'm not for personal attacks of Fulmer, either, but I'm not lodged up his butt. His time has come, and gone. Get used to it, and get over it. It has nothing to do with Majors. Fulmer's record was his undoing.
It's that simple. For you to defend Fulmer, at this point, is akin to defending the captain of the Titanic.
The ship has sunk, hoss. You cannot make it float again.
Go Vols. | |
