I was at the unveiling of Dickey’s bust and checked his record. Take a look at % of SEC games he won during HC tenure. Had he not moved on to Florida, wonder how he would’ve lasted in the environment of unrealistic expectations.

Thanks. Fixed. Kind of ironic for a former English lit major.

Is he still available? Seems as if he died decades ago but thanks for making my point of periods, sometimes lengthy, of mediocrity interspersed with periods of greatness or near greatness. You can look it up. I’ll be at the game today watching the results of a prolonged period of self imposed...

The man raised expectations by winning 152 games, two SEC championships, 5 Eastern Division championships and one NC. We got confused and thought these accomplishments were to be expected on a regular basis at a state university located in a state with relatively modest recruiting prospects in a...

"Erickson's head coaching career began at age 34 at the University of Idaho. He was hired on December 11, 1981, succeeding Jerry Davitch, who had been fired just days before the final game (a one-point home loss against rival Boise State). A pre-season playoff pick, Idaho finished the 1981...

So he stayed 100% longer with an NFL team than your fair haired boy did at UT. Do you have a point?

Yeah. They're currently all on line. I don't recall any of them leaving a program after one year while you and most of this board had your lips pressed firmly to their back sides.

Coaching ability without character isn't going to produce a NC. I don't think a stint at La Tech (that's not a direction) proves or disproves his coaching ability. All the positive referrals from successful HCs means something. What the heck. The next two years are going to be mediocre anyway...

For all of you who had an unadulterated and slavish infatuation with Kiffun, why would you think you could do a better job assessing Dooley's prospects?

If Jesus was Jewish, why'd he have Puerto Rican name?

[/B] Nope. Too classy for that: B.J. COLEMAN, FORMER UT AND CURRENT UTC QUARTERBACK “I really did not have the opportunity to spend too much time with Coach Kiffin. He’s a great football coach; he’s going to do good things at the University of Southern California. But like I said, I’m very...

An astute Coleman sniffed out this POS early.

And don't worry about misspelling the name of the curent head coach. Simek will be at UT long after the current head coach is a bad memory which he already is according to one or two other posters. September 15, 2009 At least with Kiffun at SC the NCAA will be able to consolidate their...
