I think that card has been overplayed a bit, at least from what I can glean from the folks I know.

Nutt did a great deal of damage to himself, that's true. However, Malzahn certainly didn't help matters. He watched way too many episodes of Friday Night Lights.

He could have handled the political situation differently, but I'm just not sure he understood all of the dynamics.

Then you just take twisted pleasure in it. Is it really that fun to rip on the ignorant(I'm not calling them idiots because most are completely clueless)? I know that you don't care but I think that a lot of the venom that you spew overshadows a lot of good points that you make.

I find Hat's posts well articulated and to the point. No beating around the bush. It may offend some but not me.

True, and it is usually a surprise of the most unpleasant kind. I'm far less friendly in person. I don't have to worry about board rules at that point.

The "dynamics" were, in large part, caused by guys he coached in high school and their parents. If he was unaware of that, he's probably not sharp enough to work at a big time program.

there was much more at play there.

Herring called the man "High School" from the first day he stepped on campus. Nutt allowed it.

I don't think it took Malzahn long to understand that he had his job purely for the recruits that came with him.

If Malzhan's skin is that thin, he should have stayed at the high school level.

I think he took it fine, but it was simply an indicator of the situation he walked into.

Bottom line is that he should have simply ignored the job, regardless of the public outcry for him to take it.

Arky would have simply been without Mustain, Williams and Cleveland, which is essentially the case today.

Bottom line is that Nutt and Broyles sold their souls to get the kids here and screwed the guy that helped them do it.

all the people who claimed Fulmer "had earned the chance" to turn things around after the 2005 trainwreck are happy. That which must be done inevitably should be done immediately. Failing to heed that principle has put Tennessee's program in the tank. All of you who chose to support Fulmer at the expense of the program have gotten exactly what you deserve. I hope you're proud of yourselves.

I joined you after the Fl game last year Hat. The way he escapes trouble every year though is almost funny. I mean we have him, then we roll off seven in a row. I don't see that happening again this year, but it is possible. If it does he will have saved it once again.

I'm guessing we aren't going to see any articles in the KNS Sports with the By Line:

By Phillip Fulmer

anytime soon. He should have put that one in his craw for this year.
