Difficult to fire Fulmer - Page 7

NEW COACH · 10-08-2008, 05:13 PM

The fans become complacent with this season. So lets stay pissed at Fulmer and be pissed about our lackluster season. Show your frustration.

Tennessee is nothing w/o its fans. We call the shots.

That's an easy out, and Fulmer gets to keep getting the mega-bucks...........

I understand where you are going and you certainly could be right; however, the powers to be aren't totally stupid. Fulmer has not produced with talent since the 2001 season. I'm using the potential NC implications if he had one the SECCG. Since that time, he has failed to place a team in the Top 10 and he has only beaten Florida once and, not counting Georgia, though only important ranked opponent that he has beat, I believe, is Miami. If you are correct and he lands another Top 5 recruiting class (I believe that he could), it would be paramount to taking your burning all of your money in the backyard. In other words, the talent would be wasted. That is what we can be confident about based on the results of the past ten years. Surely, someone with a vote sees that.

People don't pay money to see recruiting classes, they pay to see the final product. It's pretty apparent that more people are choosing to stay home than in years past and the fan base as a whole is unhappy. I don't care if Fulmer's recruiting class is ranked number one. If the people aren't attending games and spending money on concessions, souvenirs, etc., then the university isn't bringing in as much money and that will make the decision as to whether or not Fulmer stays.
