IMO Fulmer will be given the choice to retire or be fired. He will choose to retire. He might accept a position in the AD, maybe over recruiting, etc. Plus he could work as a TV analyst at ESPN, etc. He doesn't need to be so doom and gloom he has options.
firing fulmer i think would be a bad move, it would be like Penn state firing Jo Pa or FSU firing Bobby Bowden. Retirement, will the best course of action. He may have lost his edge, but i think there is a lot that CPF could offer for a new coach as far as still being in the program.
Buisness is Buisness and it should have been discussed w/o his knowledge after the FL Game. The AL Game confirmed he was down and the Hardesty thing is Really upsetting for all of us.
Fulmer would not even think of retiring. The guy has his head in the sand and his ego would not let him leave on his own terms. It will take the administration pushing him out.
I will guarantee that he will not retire. Where else is he gonna make $2 Millon a year for the medicore job he does? He is gonna have to be forced kicking and screaming out the door like a little kid on the first day of kindergarden. Somebody needs to call a moving company and have them show up at his house, or stick a for sale by loser sign in his front yard.
I don't know that much about Tennessee football, but when I was tailgaiting Saturday with Slick Rick, he said that he didn't think Fulmer would just retire. Slick Rick said that that the A.D. would have to force him out. I hope this doesn't get ugly in Knoxville. Anyways, good luck this week against the Ole Ball coach.
Why would firing any of these 3 coaches be a bad move?
Can someone say DejaVu PAYBACKS ARE HELL!Before the start of the season, Fulmer was quoted in an article in the Tennessean that he wanted to coach another 6 to 8 years. IMO he's not going to retire because once he's out at UT, he's done professionally. I can't see him becoming a TV analyst or anything like that. Seems like all of this retirement talk on here is wishful thinking and hoping we can avoid Majors-like separation.
