Paul Finebaum is a joke

How is he wrong? Do you think any big name coaches were sweating bullets coming into the game against Tennessee last year? I like Dooley and all, but this is silly. Mike Leach has proven he can compete at the highest level. Dooley is still learning what competing at the top full time is like. Not everyone is going to wear orange colored glasses and sip on Dool-Aid all day.

I never said he was right or wrong.Dooley hasnt won nothing.Im just wondering how come he is always ripping Tn or anything to do with Tn.I dont listen to him much but when I do its like he has it in for tn.He was ripping Tn when Fulmer was here.
Plus where did I say he was wrong or right ?

I have never listened to him. I don't even know what station he is on. All I know is someone posted his picture on here with alabama gear in bama locker room.


His image is tainted as far as I am concerned.

Having said that he is right on about no coach being afraid of Dooley either on the field or off. Class and character has never won a championship on it's own.

A bald joke? Wow.

I hardly ever listen to this clown but its for sure he tries to down Tn ever chance he gets.
A guy from Tn called in today talking about what if Tn had hired Mike Leach instead of Dooley.
Finebaum went on to say Leach would of made a couple of other coaches lose some sleep vs Dooley doesnt make any coach lose sleep.
Why does Finebaum hate Tn so much ?Is it because his head looks like its been circumcised ?

Michigan State
When Saban arrived in East Lansing, Michigan prior to the 1995 season, MSU had not had a winning season since 1990, and the team was sanctioned by the NCAA for recruiting violations committed under his predecessor and former mentor, George Perles.[13]
  • 1995–1997 – Beginning in 1995, Saban moderately improved MSU's fortunes, taking the Spartans to minor bowl games (all of which they lost by double-digit margins) in each of his first three seasons. From 1995 to 1997, Michigan State finished 6-5-1, 6-6, and 7-5. In comparison, MSU had finished 5–6, 6–6 and 5–6 (prior to NCAA forfeits) in 1992–1994.
  • 1998 – On November 7, 1998, the Spartans upset the #1 ranked Ohio State 28–24 at Ohio Stadium. However, even after the upset and an early-season rout of then-highly-ranked Notre Dame the Spartans finished 6–6, including three last-minute losses featuring turnovers, defensive lapses, and special-teams misplays, and failed to earn a bowl invitation.
  • 1999 – Saban led the Spartans to a 9–2 season that included wins over Notre Dame, Michigan, Ohio State, and Penn State. Conversely, the two losses were routs at the hands of Purdue and Wisconsin. Following the final regular-season game against Penn State, Saban abruptly resigned to accept the head coaching position with LSU. Saban's assistant head coach and successor, Bobby Williams, then coached MSU to a Citrus Bowl victory over Florida, giving the Spartans an overall record of 10–2 for the 1999 season. It would be the best season in terms of wins for the Spartans since 1965, and it would see the Spartans reach their highest ranking since the 1966 team.[14] Future former NFL Head Coach Josh McDaniels served as a Graduate Assistant on Saban's 1999 coaching staff.

I just do not get you guys. Not even Leach could have done any better than Dooley did last year. You let any team in the NCAA go through what Tennessee did with Fulmer,Kiffin,and then Dooley and no coach could have done any better. Even i know that. The talent was not there. And Kiffin's class who had everyone excited has really panned out huh. How many are left? 3 or 4 players. Dooley is the right man for the job.

Nobody was afraid of Nick Saban at Michigan State in 1995.

Nick Saban - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Michigan State
When Saban arrived in East Lansing, Michigan prior to the 1995 season, MSU had not had a winning season since 1990, and the team was sanctioned by the NCAA for recruiting violations committed under his predecessor and former mentor, George Perles.[13]

* 1995–1997 – Beginning in 1995, Saban moderately improved MSU's fortunes, taking the Spartans to minor bowl games (all of which they lost by double-digit margins) in each of his first three seasons. From 1995 to 1997, Michigan State finished 6-5-1, 6-6, and 7-5. In comparison, MSU had finished 5–6, 6–6 and 5–6 (prior to NCAA forfeits) in 1992–1994.

* 1998 – On November 7, 1998, the Spartans upset the #1 ranked Ohio State 28–24 at Ohio Stadium. However, even after the upset and an early-season rout of then-highly-ranked Notre Dame the Spartans finished 6–6, including three last-minute losses featuring turnovers, defensive lapses, and special-teams misplays, and failed to earn a bowl invitation.

I don't see your point here. Are you insinuating Dooley could be the next Saban? Well, I will at least hold my judgment until Dooley won a couple of meaningful games.

I do like Dooley's style. I support him, but I am reserving final judgement for when more time has passed. I need a larger body of work.

I was responding to the topic of this thread in general and the post above yours specifically regarding nobody being afraid of Dooley on the sidelines. My point is pretty obvious in that nobody was afraid of Saban either when he started at MSU in '95. People wanting to judge Dooley after one year as a head coach is ludicrous. Saban lost his first three minor bowl games by double digits after barely having a .500 season each year. I guess my point is give the man three or four years to see what he can do.

He's talking about Dooley at Tennessee, not saban at Michigan st! You catch my drift?

In case you don't, let me help you....

Saban= should scare you
Michigan st= shouldn't scare you

Dooley= shouldn't scare you
Tennessee= should scare you
I'll have what he's drinking. Saban didn't scare anybody at MSU. Capisce?

It's a completely different situation. If Dooley goes 6-6, 6-6, and 7-5, he will not be back.
