| Right there with you Jakez... but you knew that.
Only thing we don't know is when. In a couple of weeks and finish out the season, or after this season is finally laid to rest.
Selfishly, I want to get it out there as soon as possible. Don't know how I'll hold up to another month and a half of this limbo.. |

i've said this in the past when it comes to changes like this........timing is everything. sometimes waiting works, even if not by your original choice, a la Bama and Nick Saban, other times being first in the market works, a la Butch Davis at UNC.
it'll be interesting to see what happens if nothing else.

| Good post Jake. Just another season in a ever growing list of seasons of disappointment. Change is needed and long overdue.

That's your defense of Fulmer?
Weak. Sad. Pitiful.
Desperate.
Same as the head coach you support. | I was in no way defending Fulmer. |

it'll be interesting to see what happens if nothing else. | You couldn't be more correct. We went after Spurrier. He turned us down. Then we went after Rodriquez. He accepted, then after his little old lady had a meltdown about leaving, he decided to turn down the offer.
Mal Moore has said on more than one occasion that when he landed in Miami to try to woo Nick Saban, that he told the pilot to just go on without him if he returned to the plane without Saban.
It'll all work out. If this is Fulmer's last season, the UT program is one of the upper echelon programs in the country, and you'll attract a good coach. That is, if your board doesn't tarnish the position and make the program endure the likes of Franchione, Price, and Shula first. |
