So did Dooley deserve more time? We knew. He was given year 3 with 7 new assistants. Fail. Butch reshuffled most of his staff after 2016. Fail.

I can’t speak for anyone else. I want to win. But i have very little confidence he is the man to get us there. No one is expecting a playoff berth. But we are tied for 10th in the SEC since expanding to 14 teams. And our expectations seem to match those results. Truly sad.

Dooley was a Dick. Jones was a Day ck and a fraud. This Dude can coach. Give him more time. This “Instant Gratitude” Era we live in. We need to give this man time to build this team. He’s learning. I’m just sick of coming On here and seeing all the negative crap.

No...not necessarily.
School starts Jan 20. Not sure how the portal works precisely for the 2020 rule, but as HC you needed to make sure your star LB was on Campus before then, just in case you do infact get retained.

However Pruitt himself just spoke with the investigators 2 days ago?
The weekend isn't even up yet.

I'll believe Pruitt is staying when he is leading the team out to Spring Ball.

I've seen coaches fired after Feb signing day too.

Will you stop this man? goodness he’s good and will be back. I’ve never seen such stupidity on a message board in my life. Was the season a wash? Yes. We’re there unforeseen or uncontrollable circumstances? Yes. Can it be fixed? IMO Yes with Spr and Fall practice absolutely.
1. Qbs Salter/ Bailey are both better and will get plenty of teaching time with Chaney.
2. OL coach will be an upgrade
3. LB coaching will improve
4. DL coaching will improve
5. Defense will be better with the addition of Kevin Steele

Lol 3 years is instant 'gratification'?

"He can coach", based on what evidence? He's 16-19 overall and just came off a 3-7 season in his 3rd year.

Fulmer who hasn't coached in 14 years, and had zero coaching offers when he left UT, is going to take over with a modern football mindset?

Really think that would be a likely scenario?

Fulmer isn’t ever gonna be a HC again. I don’t know why some think he will. I thought you meant Pruitt.

The people saying it don’t know squat. My feelings are Phillip still believes he was fired too soon, whether that’s true or not I won’t speculate. He hates Mike Hamilton and refuses to follow Hamilton’s template.

He shouldn’t follow the Mike Hamilton template because Mike Hamilton was inept as an AD, good man, but sucked a$$ as an AD.

If given the choice of HT and JP or no HT and JP, I’d wish HT good luck where ever he goes.

A LOT of coaches can coach but that doesn’t mean they are head coaches, huge difference. What players or position groups are excelling under this staff to suggest he “needs” more time?

Dooley was enamored with the “prestige” and accommodations of the position, it was too big for him.

Lol, you do know that Weinke is still employed as the QB coach, right?

Can we not root for the man to be successful? Without all of the Bullsh*t negativity? We won’t be Alabama all of a sudden with a new Coach. The coaching searches every few years suck. Sit back, Suck it up and let the man work. Damn...

Time for all the wishy washy fans to man up and face reality. Until you demand better from those in charge, you will never get it. The admin get their jollies by bullying you guys into complete submission.
