Exactly, it does go back to those days, and then PF piled on when Fulmer and the Vols hit a rough patch. PF is not a Tennessee fan! (as much as he tries to portray himself as that at times when it is advantageous.) He focused the light on CPF during the investigation into Alabama's deplorable recruiting practices most notably in Memphis, but it was actually Steve Spurrier who turned Alabama in. Every coach in the Sec at the time knew what was going on in Memphis and testified against Alabama and they came within a rat's you know what of receiving the Death penalty!!! So don't let PF fool you. He may be the host of the flagship SEC TV show, but as far as Tennessee is concerned he is scum, and don't think for one second if we under perform this year he will be all over it!! However, great to see and hear from CFP on such an important day in the life of UT, and the State of Tennessee!
PF. Same initials for 2 diametrically opposite sports personalities.
3 or 4 years ago I was driving thru B-ham and some talk host had on the lead attorney for either the SEC or the NCAA concerning the "CPF / Albert Means / Turn in Bama / Destroy their Program scandal. He had just either retired or been cleared from a gag order in that old investigation. The bottom line is that the guy said CPF never had anything to do with turning them in whatsoever. The host was just like "wow, really, after all thaaaat". Attorney was basically like "yeah, we couldn't speak about it, but the entire thing was a weird charade".
Yet, to this day, when Fulmer is brought up, those in-breds still mention how he tried to bring the Tide down. Oh the humanity.
