Pete Thamel calls Fulmer a rube...

[Special Ed]

Here's the $15 million question lingering over Virginia Tech

"The ultimate issue facing Fuente potentially coming off back-to-back flops is that it’ll be difficult to lure a high-end replacement for Foster, as no million-dollar defensive coordinator will be eager to join a sinking ship.
(And VT AD Babcock isn’t a rube like Tennessee’s Phillip Fulmer, who hands out guaranteed three-year deals like they’re Halloween candy.)"

I will get slaughtered for this, but if Pruitt, who is Phil's guy, continues on this trajectory, rube will be beyond accurate.

Slaughter, no way. But realistically I think the Pruitt hire by fulmer was way better than the last two hires. Now that doesn’t say much, but heading into this nobody doubted the fact Pruitt could recruit and that he was a football coach. Now head coach? We are going to see how the rest of this year unfolds but I don’t think that was anything but a low blow to fulmer by Thamel. Whatever makes him feel better I guess.

Talking head... Doesn't deserve the time and effort to be made relevant. Who the hel- if he anyway? It's amazing how these guys are so bold hiding behind their mikes and cameras.
AH HA!!! Looked him up! Writes for that powerhouse sports coverage social media group. The dominate source of info for the times,,, YAHOO yeah YEAHOO.

Tennessee was handing out stupid deals long before Fulmer took over as AD

Truer words have never been written!! Just remember, dooley, boy butch, and now CP....

 

[SDV]

This guy has always hated Fulmer

 

[MSrivervol]

Nobody can be worse than Dan Wolken. That guy is a complete tool. Thamel and the yahoo jokes of journalists aren’t too far behind Wolken though.

Yep, Fulmer just said “hold my beer”

Always hated Tennessee. He’s the guy that broke “hostess gate”.

 

[GAVol]

Totally unprofessional.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Totally unprofessional.

It’s Thamel. He and professional do not often collide in the same sentence.

 

[bray2milton]

Did Fulmer bang this guy’s boyfriend?

Pete Thamel is part of the Pat Forde and Dan Wolken crowd.... Absolute putzes

 

[MemphisVol77]

Fulmer might be a rube but at least he had an accomplished career and can fall upward after failure.

Pete Thamel's career trajectory has been straight to the shi!ter. Unfortunately it's an outhouse that doesn't flush.

Who's Thamel? Never heard of her.

Calling them journalists might be a stretch!!

If the world ever got an enema, Pete Thamel would get the hose!

So, we are now posting clickbait articles about other teams that mention someone on our coaching staff or administration and it becomes as relevant (or irrelevant) as the local garbage and this site actually cares what it says. Amazing.

 

[Col. Forbin]

Pete Thamel is Urban Myer's personal reporter. Anytime Urban needs a story out Pete happily tees one up. Urban must want us to help drive his price higher and my guess is Fulmer would rather quit than play the game. Lets not kid ourselves, Urban would never actually take the Vols coaching job and Fulmer knows this. That won't stop Urban from using us to his advantage in the meantime.

 

[DaddyChad]

Thamel is a POS, that’s why he likes Urban so much.

It still feels like the off-season and it will still feel off till the Vols get rolling again.

 

[TrentVol]

Lol and who gives a **** what that typewriter thinks?

I think they go well together. Thamel is a professional jerk.
