[SGMVols]

I will earn it.

Wow. There's a 180 degree turn!

Go VOLS!

FYP. A 360-degree turn means you're back where you started...

 

[the.one.the.only]

...idiot.

lol jk

 

[GAVol]

Wow. There's a 360 degree turn!

Actually . . . that'd be a 180. But who's counting?

That was definitely the quote of the night though.

That's how it should be. Trust is earned not gained. Dooley has the Saban demeanor very badly.

 

[SandoVOL]

I will earn it.

Wow. There's a 360 degree turn!

Go VOLS!

For the love of a GOAT NUT

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

My favorite part of the presser. Trust is earned not given, i love it.
I think the Tennessee family will love this guy with time.

 

[Volzilla]

I will not ask the players to trust me...trust has to be earned"

This needs to be put in stone and the stone needs to be next to the ROCK

Liking this guy right off the bat.

 

[Bennett4UT]

i'll give him that, he made a good speech and history background. he still didn't win me over though, lets see if he can hold recruits. i'll give him one thing, atleast he didn't come off like kiffin acting like a tool. he seems to have some class, which kiffin has none.

 

[ocoeerivervol]

Well after everything we've been through this week I would say he's on the right track with this statement.Trust is earned not expected! CDD has integrity and dignity,thats a lot more than the last scumsuckers can ever hope to say.

 

[mgu7]

I like the guy so far, and he has my full support. but winning is more important than anything. all the class/character doesn't mean squat if you keep losing.

 

[SpringBokVol]

I loved this sentiment and I am sure every player did as well... he will earn their trust quickly.

 

[govols10302bb]

he said just what we needed to hear, words don't mean very much:rock::rock:

 

[TENNFOLD1974]

I'm grateful that this man is coming into this position without the feeling of entitlement, you get what you earn...kudos to him!...I'm feeling so much better than I did a couple of days ago...GO BIG ORANGE!

 

[PaVolsFan]

Too many Vol fans pre-judged Dooley. That is because of the love and passion for the University and this football team. I would never say to anyone you should have given him time. Tenn fans are too passionate from the start. That's what make Vols football. But Derek Dooley is the Vols HJC, Derek Dooley is the man. Line up!

So, we needed to hear that words don't mean squat? Okay, I agree, recruiting results mean everything.

Rumor has it he likes black unies....

Rumor has it he likes black unies....

C'mon, it's the man's 1st day as HC. Let's not get this going again.

 

[vollygirl]

Rumor has it he likes black unies....

Oh no you didn't!!!!!!!!

 

[CardsNVols]

I'm on board, lets get this thing going.

 

[Daredevol]

Welcome, Coach Dooley.
