In KNS article Dooley says concerning the talented freshmen WRs:
NOT DOING THIS as much as any other factor sunk Fulmer as a coach. To the very end he held to the idea that "if you stay you'll play" and gave preference to the veteran players. It not only hurt UT on the field, but KILLED us in recruiting!
PS- please don't turn this into another bash Fulmer thread. That is not my intention.
"Dooley said he doesn't intend to force the talented bunch to learn the entire playbook before letting it see the field.
"Early on we'll try to push them, see how quickly they can learn," he said. "We're also not going to let our ego as coaches get in the way. If the guy's really good and he can only run two things, he's going to do two things."
