ESPN didn't like our 2012 Class so much

All they had to do was off set the two words and it would have read "NOW HERE" instead of "NOWHERE".

There are a few reasons why Dooley is widely considered one of the worst coaching hires in CFB history. The 2012 recruiting class is one of them.

13. Tennessee Volunteers

2012 grade: B- (8th)

2016 grade: F


Top signees: S LaDarrell McNeil, WR Cordarrelle Patterson, DT Daniel McCullers.

Only five players from the class signed by then-coach Derek Dooley started double-digit games in their Tennessee careers. Two were short-stay junior college products (Patterson and McCullers) and another (Pig Howard) was dismissed from the team before his career ended. McNeil emerged as a four-year starter at safety. Attrition was the theme: 13 of the 23 signees either transferred, were dismissed or left the team, including all three ESPN 150 recruits (Howard, Drae Bowles and Dante Phillips).

How the door thing ever happened within an organization worth a billion dollars, I will never be able to comprehend. Just shameful. I often told my friends we would have been better off with a cardboard cutout as a head coach than Dooley. Crap like the doors and no OL guys recruited his last year is what made me say it. Now looking back, I was probably right. It would have been a lot cheaper for sure.

Can't blame kids for transferring at that time. Now if you'll excuse me I need to go take a Dooley

That was our senior class this past season. The 2013 class wasn't great either. I know we gave away some games but 9-4 was a great year considering.

No players drafted last year shows that the recruiting class from the year before wasn't so great, either.

Just reemphasizes the mess that Butch inherited ... and turned around. We should really appreciate the job that he has done to this point. And I think 2016 is going to be even better than this past season.
