| If Kiffin comes out and wins 8 games and Crompton shows progression, no one in the NCAA will want him to coach.

I don't think that success by Kiffin would have much effect on the hirability of Fulmer because its hard to see a school in the bigger conferences being interested in him. I do think, however, that if Kifin fails then Fulmer will have a little pep in his step.

He at least would end up at one of the smaller, not too good, "you made it to a bowl game, wow congratulations! represent our conference well  " schools.
And it'd have to pretty much be kiffin winning 10 games and crompton ending the season w/ either heisman candidacy or consideration from the NFL draft for your scenario |

Its hard to see him outside the SEC, or at least the south in general. Maybe a C-USA school? A UCF? A Memphis?

| it's not in fulmer's makeup to coach at a school that would not coddle him like ut did.. i.e. most schools..
I hope he can make it on the $6 mill. buyout... |

His lack of introspection is one of the major contributors of his downfall. If you're not willing to look inwardly to see how you can improve or adjust, then you will get passed up by the Saban's and Meyer's of this world. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

"You always look back at games and wish you had done some things differently," he says. "I certainly was disappointed it ended the way that it did, and I have some responsibility in that. It's always that way with a head coach – the buck stops there. I think anyone would be proud of what we did accomplish. You use it as a learning experience. I had a great time and enjoyed a good run."

Nah, I read that as him saying he fellt that he was forced by convention to take responsibility for some games that went awry just because he is head coach (but it really wasn't his fault.)
