So....all you guys that hated on Clay Travis for saying Dooley was a consumate loser still think he was way off base? Just wondering, sometimes the truth hurts.

Football coaches get fired.

Most fans didn't think Dooley was good enough for the gig. ...it's not like Travis went out on a limb.

A termination is much less fluid than a Pre-signed contract for hire...IMO

Not so sure if it is contingent on having another hire in place. And JG still has MNF contract.

Maybe the AD is OK with a fishing expedition. I don't doubt DD is under serious scrutiny. However I am not sure skepticism is out of line with regard to leak, disinformaiton or not, that DD has been let go and this will be announced at the end of the season.

This kind of access rumor is usually incomplete, imperfect information.

There are plenty more reasons why people are hating on Clay Travis. Biggest reason is.... he's a freakin prick. JMO.

never hated clay Travis for that. I hate clay Travis because he's a pandering douche bag that contributes to the degradation of journalism with every breath he takes.

Please, it was a hip injury, not a triple bypass or something of the sort.

Actually, you can die from hip fractures via marrow poisoning. Ever hear of old people fracturing their hip and soon after their dead? The reason is often due to marrow poisoning. The reason his doctors called him in for emergency surgery instead of allowing him to put it off is because any fracture to the hip runs that risk -- it's where most of our marrow is stored. The surgery isn't risky but the injury is and being on that sideline was a bigger risk than people realize.

I agree, however, this particular debate (for you) is a no win situation in regard to the Dooley termination because there's a higher percentage that the rumors are right than wrong. So, in the event he does get canned today or 6 weeks from now...all the imperfect information becomes valid, whether it is right at this very moment or not.

I don't disagree with your skepticism at all...but this is an inevitable situation and it keeps gettin hotter and hotter, so eventually some deliberate information is going to come out...be it through him or someone else that will immediately report to this board. Once tht occurs, the details then become fluid...perhaps that moment is now??

The cascading rumors did not roll the Shannon situation. DD is still the coach. Its a win for me to support the Vols moving through the rest of the year. I understand his situation is tenuous. I simply choose not to speculate that at this time it is doomed. I support the players, coaches and team moving forward. Rationalizations such as the one's you offer are unconvincing to me.

God I hope and pray that when the new coach is announced its a home run hire!! it better be a coach on the caliber of saban or Tressel or Meyer..if we do get a coach on that level we prob can expect at least 9 wins next season and possibly 10 after that and then by year 3 be national contenders again....

Alas shall I hang my star on any rumor that supports my position for wishful thinking. That's the thing about day-trading one needs to be prepared to get out of one's position quickly once the rumor dissolves.

hahaha thats laughable at this point..it would take a complete MIRACLE to run the table undefeated to achieve a record like that this yr..out of our last 5 we prob can finish 3-2 and finish 6-6 worst case is we completely implode and finish 0-5 and go 3-9 or 4-8....guess we will see how the next month turns out...

Because Hart doesn't want the embarrassment of a search. He wants a done deal before he seals it with Dooley.

I like that. Question though: Do you think that candidates would reach out if it were known the job were going to be open, or does the backchannel stuff happen anyway?
