All have history of firing a coach when it's obvious that it's not working. Zook got 3 years and was 16-8 in the SEC. Shula got 4 and was 13-19 in the SEC. Gary DiNardo got 5 years at LSU and was 18-20 in the SEC. Auburn fired Terry Bowden after he went 1-5 in his 6th year with a 30-14 overall record.
Again, Derek Dooley is 4-17 in the SEC and people are still defending this fool.
Florida fired Zook after three years with over a 60% winning percentage because he lost to us and FSU.
Alabama gave Shula four years with slightly higher than 50%.
LSU and UGA haven't had a bad spell in the past few years so it's hard to say neither was great in the early nineties but I doubt either would go more than two or three years with Dooley's record.
There is no excuse for Tennessee to put up with 3 years of 14-19 and at the very best 19-19 football.
