Many maybe, not sure about most. I like CDD, but I need people with legit info to explain why there was such a divide in this team if I'm going to continue to support him. I hope he "prunes" the right branches because there was some rotten fruit this year.

I would not consider my self negative nancy, more like not getting worked up over a coach that does not have a track record of winning anywhere. That doesn't make him a bad person, or an idiot. He just has nothing to point to that says, "its gonna get there".

Fulmer blew the tires out and ran it in the ditch, Kiffin pulled the tires off to fix em, and left em laying by the car as he run off.

Dooley got the tires back on it, but he's trying to pull the car out of the ditch with moped.

hey i want what everyone wants and thats good tennessee football. and to make another point, if it seems like im a fulmer basher i dont mean to be. i just try to compare some of his past to now. i look at things a bit differntly. most people think the wyoming loss was one of the worst losses ever and i totally disagree with that. fulmer never had a shot in that game, the kids were shell shocked. they had terrible practices all week and never got into it at all. alot of us seen that loss coming from a mile away. imo the loss to kentucky was worse.

I agree, I was at that game and fulmers last game. Cold, rainy dreary night, will never forget it. This years Kentucky loss was like the titanic(Dooley) hitting an iceburg.
Had to edit my post.

What exactly is there to be positive about? Recruits still have to be coached.

Everyone is exciting about this recruiting class. That's great.

Except I don't have any faith they'll be coached up properly anyways.

Oline goes from the worst pass blocking team to one of the best.

Rivera goes from invisible to on the Mackey Watch list

Da'rick goes from not even being able to run a route to a 1000 yard receiver

Total Defense goes from in the 60s to 28th.

Bray goes from being considered inaccurate and wild to the best qb in the SEC.

Couch goes from being considered a bust in early practice to a force on the dline.

Austin Johnson goes from a fullback to our leading tackler.

Should i go on?

OLine goes from leading the way for a 1000 yard rusher to the worst rushing team in all of college football.

Rivera goes on the watch list and then his QB forgets that he is allowed to throw him the ball.

Da'Rick becomes Brays 1st look in every route and reguardless if he is triple covered or not Bray throws it to him.

Total defense improves as this team quit very early in games and as teams had us down by 4 TDs early they ran the ball and clock therefore totaling less yards and boosting our defense ranking.

Bray goes from being inaccurate and wild to a great QB vs mediocre teams. VS SEC teams Bray looked like a 3 star QB whose only other offer was San Diego St and in NO WAY showed he was best in the SEC.

Couch came in as a solid DT Juco prospect and finished the season as a solid Middle tier SEC DT prospect.

Austin Johnson went from fullback to our leading tackler(says alot about this 26th ranked defense).

Should I go on?

i can understand that. dooley is very smart, no denying that. im just in the camp that wait til the 3rd year to judge. i mean wilcox only has about 60% of his defense implemented because of depth and injury issues. janzen getting the boot changed some things. i mean have you ever seen that many first year players in the same backfield before. crazy stuff. we'll finally be in position to sub along the dline alot more next year and that in itself will open alot of things up.

This is my feeling as well. And obviously makes a few judicious moves with the offensive staff.

Please promise that the info you speak of makes it out with at least some degree of specifics because when so many media members and former players are bashing Tyler and Da'Rick it's hard not to listen. Thanks. :hi:

I think our D will be solid next year if the secondary can settle in. Wilcox, Thompson, and Sirmon are solid. Still got questions with Joseph.

DD had a chance to build some equity the first 2 years. Not that he was expected to win 8 either year, but I think he missed a couple chances to give him some wiggle room for next year.

some of the things that have been said are true, it just got blown way out of porportion. alwasy two sides to every story. im not trying to be cryptic i just simply cant go into specifics.

i will say this. if someone is a cancer or breaking rules dooley will deal with them no matter who it is. he kicked the best player and athlete off our team this year. he gave janzen every opportunity to get his stuff together.

dooley would do the same with bray,hunter, rogers or anyone else on the team.

How so?

After the Kentucky game, Tauren said they didn't want to be there. Austin said people were more concerned about themselves than the team. Malik said he was so glad he came to Tennessee and that Dooley was a great coach who was going to have a lot of success.

They may all acknowledge the same facts, but that tone is vastly, vastly different.
