See..you guys are like bugs. He has won games. Nothing will please you.
Not what you said when Dooley was hired.
I was so wrong about Dooley
After explaining this for like the 10000th time, it was more of needing him to succeed than wanting. Blind faith, wishful thinking, etc
Now, I just look at the numbers. I don't give a **** about how much he says, that he loves UT, or what ever other BS the coach wants to shovel
If he doesn't beat our biggest rivals and get us to a SECCG, then he can pound sand
Yep
38% of his wins this year come against teams with a winning record
Two of those teams with winning records, were Bowling Green and Western Carolina.
He made a career playing weak opponents. Only one time in his career, prior to UT, did he have a combined SOS above a 0. That was one year at Cincinnati when it was 1.99. He went 4-8 that year
At UT, his SOS is as follows
2013 8.37 5-7
2014 5.52 7-6
2015 3.28 7-4
Is it that he's improving or is his competition getting worse?
The numbers say the latter

because the next several years are not going to be for the weak of heart or mind
Save yourselves the pain and anguish now
Soon, other teams will say " We might turn out to be the Tennessee of the SEC" and not in the good way
This ship might just be at the bottom now
Very questionable? Yes...Idiotic?..only in hindsight. The best coaches make bad decisions too. They have just banked enough goodwill, that it is overlooked most of the time. It goes back to what I said, you guys were just waiting to be validated....and no, losing to Candy is unacceptable.
I don't think guys are waiting to be validated regarding Jones....in other words, waiting for him to lose/fail. Most everybody who has been critical of him have, after the fact, assessed his coaching performances, have raised many legit questions and, in some cases, have decided they don't see him winning at a very high level here. I'm not quite one of those guys personally. I'm not sure if he can win a title here or not. But I definitely have seen what I believe are some pretty significant red flags dating back to the 2013 Vandy game. And those red flags have fairly consistently shown up throughout his first 3 years here now.

That's the life of a college football coach. Look at Les Miles. Today may be his last game at LSU. Three weeks ago he was riding high and ranked number two in country along with the number one ranked recruiting class. Three weeks have turned Les from a Hero into a Zero. I hope they know what they are about to do to their program.
