Thanks to everyone praying. Things are happening. I showed him several posts from y'all overcoming last night. He said he got on his knees after that. He got up to go in on 2nd and got a call saying he was fired for missing too many days. Then said to wait on a call from the manager. While waiting I showed him the comeback video from @nicksjuzunk. Nick, he was agreeing with everything he said so I am hopeful for the first time. Then he was called to come on in to work. TY!

And thoughts on addiction as a disease that can be genetic? I think it can be both environment and hereditary.

I believe that there are certain brain wirings that can make things more problematic if the environmental factors set things into motion.

There is actually a genetic component to appetite and desire for exercise. It doesn’t mean some are doomed from birth, but it may not come as naturally to see results. Systems and habits are very helpful

Until the second half of the Georgia game, Fulmer, could have sold vials of his farts around here.

Revisionist history around here

Fulmer just enmeshed himself in the pure hatred of Pruitt by the fanbase by refusing to fire him...and that gave the ultimate leverage and ammunition to the folks that wanted to regain the true power at Tennessee.

I have very confused, very mixed feelings about all of this now.

Not the way it went down, no. Both loved UT. Neither wanted to go. Both felt they had earned more time to right wrongs. Maybe they had; maybe they hadn't. But treat people with respect and make it a win-win and they're more likely to work with you to find a solution.

I'd say Holly was more hurt and emotional about it than Fulmer. Fulmer's pragmatic. He knows all about sausagemaking and backroom politics.

Absolutely zero way that Holly earned more time, and she had absolutely zero idea how to right her wrongs, because she made the same wrongs game after game and year after year.

The idea that the university president turned us in to fire a coach is ridiculous, especially when they had the power to fire anybody they wanted…

The University president can't just ignore documented evidence of cheating when it is presented to them. People want to talk about death penalty, that's how you get it.

How did it get to the point of some whistle blower running to the president? That's the root cause of that whole situation.

I never want to hear a Power 5 school complain about money or threaten to cut sports. It’s ridiculous how much they are taking in. If you can’t make that much work then you have no idea how to manage money.

You are looking at how much they take in and not how much they spend out.... I know bowl games for instance.... a lot of teams lose money by going to the bowl games..... Other sports also take a hit due to title 9.

He was going to be here or Arkansas imo. I’m at peace with it.

Don't disagree. Just get tired of posters who state PF has this undying love for UT. He does (and has) played the power game well and puts up a good front about his "love" for UT. I will let it go and move on now
