Always try to keep in mind that here on VN most people are much younger and have no real idea of what it takes or how long it takes to totally rebuild a football program back up from 1 of the worst programs in the country.

Most here only loom a Win/loss record and nothing else at all which is delusional.

Most here also post mostly based on emotions rather than rational thoughts of the entire spectrum of all that's involved.

Most here, including me, probably love Tennessee and bleed Orange BUT they will never admit when they're totally WRONG and will never admit that Tennessee is NOT a school that most coaches want to come coach at and there's several reasons that UT is way, WAY down on the list of schools a coach would want to come to.

Also remember that local radio works together in most cases especially on talk shows...They want 1 station saying 1 thing and the other station saying just the opposite because stirring the pot like that helps make more $$$ and making $$$ is the only thing that matters.

Most on here also intentionally REFUSE to admit anything good that CDD has done for our program no matter how blatantly obvious it is because it doesn't fit their agenda and because it proves how WRONG they've been in the past.

Most last year said our O linemen and RB's flatout sucked and we'd never have a good running game until we recruited real SEC type O linemen and RB's which was totally WRONG and CDD said he would get our run game fixed and with the SAME O linemen and RB's we now have a running game that's actually MUCH better than anyone expected and we've run well against top ranked teams and top Defenses.

Most say CDD sucks as a recruiter but in his ONLY 2 recruiting classes plus the 2 WEEKS he had to add some kids on the laMe KiffScum class we now have 18 to 20 future NFL players on our Vols even though alot of them are only Sophs and Freshmen.

IF, and a big IF, for some reason CDD isn't fired and he fixes our Defense this offseason as well as he fixed our run game last offseason then I can easily see Tennessee Winning the SEC East Title next season and we'll also give Bama and Oregon tough games that everyone here will be pretty happy with as a solid step in the right direction and with lots more WINS will come much better recruiting classes and more top recruits especially if we Win 9 or 10 or more games next season and CDD and his staff get new 3 or 4 year contracts to show solid stability beck in our program again.

NEVER believe everything you hear on radio or tv and certainly don't believe most you see posted here on VN because most are guesses, speculation and hopes and dreams of people with their own personal agendas.

Support our Vols, enjoy the games as much as you can and understand that NOTHING said on here will mean anything to the decisions AD Hart will make going forward.

VFL...GBO!!!

If he wins out he gets another year. Might wanna start preparing yourselves. Sunseri probably wont get so lucky. Def has to improve big time to compete.

I agree with your comments about CDD but I can't really share your enthusiasm for winning the East next year. Our defense will not be that much better next year even with a new defensive coordinator. There's no talent in the secondary or on the ends. Serious lack of speed at the corners and the safeties don't have good instincts at all. Rivera is a senior and if we lose Hunter and CP, how are we gonna put up enough points to cover the defense? We're also losing Dallas Thomas and Jawuan James could also go pro. I'd venture to say that no one could come in as a HC or DC and help this team win the east next year. Recruiting will be brutal because lets be honest, there aren't many recruits that would want to come to Tennessee right now. Maybe hiring a big name like Gruden might change that, but there is not enough stability in place to make UT appealing. We really need 2-3 years to turn the cat around.

The HC at the end of the day is responsible for the team. CDD has made some major mistakes like hiring Sunseri and not getting involved with the D sooner. I understand why people want him gone. But who are you going to get to replace him that is worth the buy out money that also can get recruits fired up to come here? Gruden may be the only name and he is very doubtful. If you are going to make a major change in the program, it had better be close to a sure thing. Otherwise we fall even further behind the eight ball. None of the other names I've heard are names you can really get excited about so you get back to the question of what's best for the team. Dooley's record is not a reflection of his intelligence or leadership, although many would speculate that it is. There are many coaches that have left UT that we thought were bad-mediocre coaches that went on to do better things at other places. I think CDD would be in that same camp. If you actually listen to his accounts for why things are bad right now, he's actually right on point. He sees the problem! A bad coach can't see the problem or is too set in his ways to fix it. At the end of the day, it's all varying opinions anyways and nothing we say really matters. But I will respect the opinions of those on here and I would hope they would respect mine, even if they don't agree.

The Fans in NW Charlotte area seem to be OK with giving it another year or waiting till the end of this year before putting in their opinion.

But most of them are over the age of 18 unlike most posters on this board.

Truthfully it depends on the friends you have. If they are high strung then all of them want him fired. If they carry patience then you will see the wait until the end of the year and look at the whole body of work.

Waiting to see his whole body of work? That's just dumb. Adding a win against Vandy and kentucky isn't going to add anything to his body of work, it will still be awful whether he wins or loses those games.

Who is to say we will beat Vandy, George Cafeco would turn over in his grave. He always told his players smash them in the mouth, Bobby Scott has told that several times I remember that, a lot of you can't remember your not old enough.

If you're taking an objective look? How is your opinion objective? Dooley has failed to win a big game in three years, yet some fans want to bury their heads in the sand and yell he needs more time. Yet Sunseri, who's in year one of installing a new defensive scheme, one Dooley wanted by the way, needs to go? A tad hypocritical, don't you think? Dooley's the biggest problem. He cannot coach at an SEC level.
Yes, an OBJECTIVE look. As in identifying the problem, with evidence to support your analysis. I'm not saying he is the answer, or the best available head coach, but all the "Dooley just can't get the job done" gets old. Like you or I have any idea what it really takes. Sometimes I enjoy finding positive things to focus on, and we have plenty of those.
