Alot of a head coaches success or failure is based on the staff he amasses and the recruiting they will be able to accomplish.There has been alot of comments lately about him doing something soon I think he has already a list of choices and IMO there is one that I think that is at the top of his list,being as someone is close to hanging it up ,they have wonderful golf courses,plenty of fishing and hunting,and being familiar with his rivals and going to a bowl game at the end of the year is quite a accomplishment (sounds to be a dream job for CPF)I'll let you guess where I'm talking bout

Phil did a lot for UT. Don't you think it would tarnish his legacy a little if he goes somewhere else? I mean wasn't he talking about retirement before all this crap anyway?

If Lou Holtz and Steve Spurrier couldn't turn around USCjr, what would make you think Fulmer could do it?

The idea of South carolina putting so much into hiring spurrier, then firing him (assumingly in the next 2 years is the part of the idea that makes that part difficult), and then hire (possibly break a small bank) fulmer of all people to replace spurrier is just kinda nuts.

He's not going to end up at an SEC school

It seems that it isn't about turning anything around it's a great place to ply your wares, feed your ego,make money,go to a bowl game every once in awhile and the natives are happy,and I guarantee if he's offered he'll jump on it in a New York minute....

Lol - would be hilarious for him go to USCjr after Spurrier retires though.... three coaches in a row that were considered great coaches during their prime go to that school and fail and retire.

Fulmer (and SC native Chavis) probably have USC on their lists, but I would bet you any amount of money that They don't have Fulmer on any short list. There's a better chance of Charlie Strong being on that short list than Fulmer.

No,the only time retirement came up was when Vickie brought it up on the plane ride back from the Fiesta Bowl. Fulmer was saying just last summer that he thought he had 10 mor years left in his tank. Heck, just today he has an article out about looking at coaching opportunities...

I agree with you on what Phil did for the program. He had to have very good players to accomplish what he did. It wasn't all his fault.
He may coach again, but since his blood runs orange he won't coach in the SEC.Could be in the ACC or Big East or a Div 1AA.:eek:k:

Yeah but I bet it's not on Charlie's short list,I'd say the one he wants and will flourish at is a little farther south,If you think it's hard to win at Tennessee,Charlie Strong knows as well as anyone Souf Cackalacky is a death wish for a rookie coach but a gem for "old codgers"

You obviously don't know any Shamecock fans, nor do you have any comprehension at the frustration they have with football. They got rid of Holtz about 2-3 seasons removed from winning back-to-back bowl games over tOSU. At that time, I think Holtz was the schools all time bowl wins leader.

Fulmer will not satisfy those guys by just phoning it in the way he did in Knoxville. He could get away with doing that every now and then and get 8-9 wins occasionally. He tries that crap down there and he's looking at a string of 2-10 seasons.

The reason why he won't coach again in the SEC has nothing to do with his orange blood or perceived loyalty to the school. He won't coach in the conference because there isn't a school that would be foolish enough to do it. UGA will probably be the next big opening in the conference if the Dawgs continue to get tired of Martinez's defense, the team sleepwalking through entire halfs of big games and 9 win seasons.

Do you really think Georgia would offer Fulmer? If Nutt is run out of Oxford, can you see Ole Miss making a move to hire Fulmer after they've still got memories of Cutcliffe?

It actually depends if those two wins are Georgia and Clemson if he did that every year there he'd be a god ...:eek:lol:
