I told everyone on this board Dooley did more in his first two weeks than Kiffin did.
And who is in the supermajority now????
Dooley pulled more contributors his first two weeks on the job than Kiffin did that whole class. In fact, I believe we have more contributors from that two weeks than Kiffin's whole tenure.
Of course; I was summarizing, but as long as our coach wasn't weird enough to turn him away from the program in those 20 minutes, he was always coming here.
But...But...I thought you were counting all those players to Robert Neyland.
Do you really think a coaching staff is not that important to a recruit?? Its silly to say that as long as the coach wasnt a complete moron, Hunter was coming here. A coaching staff is one of, if not the biggest reason players choose schools when the big boys are competing for a recruit. Kiffin's staff obviously had an effect on Hunter and Rogers but that was just showing him the campus. They both were obviously really impressed with the new staff.

I'll give Rogers to Dooley, no questions asked. Offering Nance is what got Rogers in orange.
Not budging on Hunter, though. Hunter was a Vol in 09, but was keeping it quiet.
Actually, I threw Kiffin a bone trying to keep it from looking as gawd-awful as it is. Once utchavis made his unfortunate statement (trying to beef up the Kiffin numbers) it became academic at that point.
When yawyaw picked up the phone, they were no longer Kiffin recruits.
But we know, thanks to your nihilism, what the candle-lighters believe:
Kiffin >> Tennessee >> Neyland.
Thanks for exposing your hand this thread. Maybe you can PM hatvol for the best method of cyberspace hari-kari?
Coaching staffs are generally very important. I'm saying that Dooley the best head start he could possibly have had, and a pretty large one with Rogers as well.
But he didn't want to go to Florida. That's what I'm trying to say. He wanted to come to Tennessee. He had wanted to be a Vol for at least a month.
Coleman couldn't beat Vandy. Crompton had to come in.
Im just saying, you cant take away the fact that dooley kept the class intact. Kiffin made UT look like a mid-program the way he left. We lost out on a good amount of players when Kiffin bolted, thats why im saying Dooley deserves just as much credit.

With the little bit of time hes been able to establish with (coach Dooley), Scott said, he felt a little more comfortable and more trusting with this guy than the other Tennessee staff. His family also felt better with the decision. I just hope its the right decision.
Even Hunter likes Dooley more than Kiffin. Actually, just about everyone outside of southern california does with the exception of about 10 cult-like followers on this board.
Dooley deserves credit for keeping the class together and adding to it with guys like Stone and Neal that we had wanted before. With Hunter specifically, though, he had pretty much the easiest recruiting job of all time.
