ESPN article says Fulmer was at Lady Vols BBall game tonight. Anyone see video of him, was he wearing Orange? Just curious? I am hoping he will get over the bitterness.

I also thought it was interesting that SEC comish was there as well - wonder if he was in Knoxville today when he issued is "reprimand" on Kiffin?

See quote and link below.

"Summitt had former Tennessee football coach Phillip Fulmer cheering her from a luxury suite. . . "

Sorry about the title of the thread, one too many l's in Fulmer's name. I don't know how to fix it?

Didn't fulmer get hired by the UT president for some glorified gofer type job for a few hundred thousand per year???

Actually he never accepted it, and it was to continue his employee benefit program through the state if i recall.

Also to talk about topic from op, he is an alumnus of UT, he was our coach, he gave us a NC, multiple division titles, and is good friends with CPS. Why wouldn't he be there to celebrate the most heralded coach in women's basketball?

Slive did some post-game presentation thing - I was a little worried he would get booed and it would sound bad for national audience that might not be as plugged in to what went on today, but only polite applause.

I actually like that he was there. I for one am a full Kiffin supporter, but I would love to have Fulmer back to all the UT games as a fan / alumni wearing orange. I just thought him comming to campus for the game was a positive sign.

I hope he doesn't pull a CJM and disapear for ten years. :peace2:

I agree 100% on all points. Expect to catch some grief though.

Had it been a men's game the clean up crew would have had to pick up countless items that would have been thrown in his direction...
