I hope Dooley is the coach next year!

I don't think anybody could foresee how deep of a hole we were in during Fulmer's last year. Then we bring in Kiffin, he leaves and the hole gets a bit deeper.
Dooley hasn't had a chance to fully implement his system with his recruits. I see steady, albeit slow, progress since he has been the head coach. He's already had to adjust to a new defensive coordinator, dismissing talented players that were thugs and locker room cancers, and severe lack of leadership from the players.
The point I'm trying to make is that we need to understand that UT's football program was going downhill for years before Dooley. How can we expect to be back on top in three short years with the road blocks that have been in the way recently? Now I'm not suggesting that Dooley is the answer to our football prayers-I'm just saying that its unfair to dump all the blame on one guy. If he's gets everything set up his way and the players are all in and we still don't see results then I'll agree that we should pull the plug.

THANK YOU !! A little common sense on this board. Our roster is getting closer, but not yet where it needs to be. Being championship caliber in the SEC is a slow process. I see all the stats about who we have beaten, the SEC records, etc. We are about where our roster has allowed us to be. Nobody is more disappointed in the last few years than I am, but watching 2009, 2010, 2011 unfold, I never was foolish enough to think we would compete for any championships this year.

I know I'm the only one that wants this but I really hope Dooley is the coach next year and I believe he will be. Just so he can prove every last one of you wrong. Nothing would thrill me more than listen all the wonderful people on volnation b**** and complain for another season because everyone on here is so knowledgeable about football, the university of tennessee, everybody knows every donor, not to mention have all the inside information and hell y'all still believe that Gruden is going be our blessed coach. I really don't even know why I waste my time. Go Coach Dooley! Go VOLS!!!



I think Dooley will be the coach next season also.

(1) I doudt that a top level coach will come to this program now. So, if you can't hire a Hall of Fame coach,
we might as well keep Dooley,until we get the right guy.
Why fire Dooley, and pay the buy out, just to hire the coach at Grambling, East Carolina or Marshall? That would not be an improvement.
If Hart can get the money for the buy out and also get a Hall of Fame hire, then Dooley is gone. If not, then Dooley stays.

(2) I do see improvements in the team from last season vs. this season. We are hanging close to the top #25 teams. We did not fall apart against UNCS. We, at one point, were in the top #25. We are building depth on the team, which we did not have last season.

The improvement is there but just not as fast as we want it to be.

I do not support Dooley but I say we only fire him if we have a Hall of Fame coach waiting to take over immediately....

Actually no not one drop sir. But maybe for the rest of the population on here.

I agree, I think its important to give CDD a real chance to do great things here. They kids are trying hard and we've had some bad games but the foundation is there. We need to stick together and support our team, our kids, and our coaching staff! GO VOLS

Why does everyone keep saying that he is a great guy? Ask people that work around him at UT and they'll tell you he is a grade A jerk.

I dont care who the coach is next season is going to be rough. We have Oregon on the schedule again and reviving SEC East. That will be difficult to win in no matter who you are.

So what you are basically telling us is that you enjoy getting the s--t beat out of you and backing people that get the s--t beat out of them. Well I guess that's just wired into some people's DNA. :loco:

I'm thankful it's not wired into mine.

I've never understood the nice guy argument anyway. I know several people who are nice guys, but I wouldn't want any of them to be the HFC of the Vols.

Other than money, I see no reason why Dooley his here next year. If you read the rock, it says it all.

Everybody pony up an extra $10 bucks in your donation so we can drop this guy and get back to winning

Why is it that so many of these Dooley guys have low post counts? Sometimes I lean toward believing the rumor about the AD paying message board posters to be sunshine pumpers, as ridiculous as it sounds.

If $$$ = winning, Danny Snyder would be the NFL God.

I guess the biggest thing I am tired of is all the bickering. Just like in 08 there was the group that wanted Fulmers head and there was the group that wanted to keep him. You know what they say about opinions and everyone thinks there's is right.

If there's one thing Obama has taught us, change isn't always for the best.

Some people just can't admit they were wrong, so they change the argument.

I think it would be more accurate to say he's a good ambassador for the program. Its because most on here have never met the man and he seems likeable in interviews so he must be a great guy.

Kinda like all the people who say they know for a fact what CDD's job status will be beyond this year. They believe CDD should be fired so everyone should to and anyone who disagrees is obviously an idiot.
