"A couple bad years...." What? This has been a steady slide since 2001.

The problem is what consists of a "bad year" to Hamilton and the Foolmer cronies. I posted these quotes from an SI article, and they sum it up well:

"[A]s long as Tennessee finishes at least 7-5, Fulmer's job is safe. Why? Because that's pretty much what the school is paying him to do. By raising Fulmer's salary to $2.4 million last summer, Tennessee basically sent a message that it's OK with being about the sixth-best program in the SEC. How can the Vols expect to contend for SEC titles when their coach can't beat half the adversaries in his league? Take a look at the records: 0-4 against Urban Meyer, 1-4 against Nick Saban, 1-3 against Tommy Tuberville (while at Auburn), 3-4 against Mark Richt and, most infamously, 4-8 against Steve Spurrier."

"But the most telling clause in that contract was the provision that automatically adds another year every time Fulmer wins eight games. What does that say about how far the standards have fallen in Knoxville?"

Foolmer should have been fired the very minute his agent negotiated for such low performance standards. It shows what his true expectations are for this program.

Yes, but if he doesnt win 8 games than he will be out.

I agree that he should be out, but I believe it will take 5-7 or worse (which I think is very likely).

That signature and everything is totally different from what he sent to me. Not saying that yours isnt true or anything like that, just that he was totally different in my letter.

he replied with something like this.

Mike, thanks for writing and I do understand that the fan has every right to be upset with product on the field right now. However, it is my job at UT to support our coaches at all cost. Coach Fulmer

a marvelous job at this university and took our team to the SECCG last year. The season is still young and we have every chance to make a return to Atlanta this year. Thanks and Go-Vols

I doubt a real reply from Mike Hamilton would have this grammatical error in it. :ermm:

I gotta call BS on yours.

I can't imagine Hamilton telling fans that he's carefully considering a coaching change at this point in the season.

You can call whatever you wish, but that is what he sent me. I took from it that they are looking at new coaching options, but doesnt mean Phillip will be fired or be one of those asked to step down. Could mean a new defensive coordinator, maybe a special teams coach??

That was from memory, i deleted the email but he stated that we will support fulmer and he harped on the success of winning the East last year. I have rcvd three emails from MH over the past two seasons and never once has he even slightly mentioned that he was looking at new coaching possibilities.

So just because he never mentioned anything like that to you takes away the credibility of my email? Maybe yours is the real fake one??:eek:hmy:

Actually the signature and the last sentence is different in yours than any of the three i got. He always end the sentece with -Go Vols

you put it down in the signature block, maybe he changed it. But, I am going with Jaytrain and saying that yours is 100% phony

No you don't KNOW, you have to supply proof to KNOW. I have seen none. It's just my word against someone elses word that says " Hey I got an email from MH too"

:eek:lol:

No, you made a bunch of mistakes creating your "letter from MH."

Also, why does it happen to be in the same font you whined about wanting to use on here? Nobody else took the liberty to change it when they posted theirs?
