And another one has him ranked 7th.

Fact is, he's getting drafted. That makes him awesome. Just like it made Crompton awesome, and Kiffin a genius. Remember?

another one (that's the key word). Being ranked below Simms should end this but I guess your love for Coleman knows no bounds

It didn't make Crompton awesome. It was impressive that the staff got a qb that was awful for the first 4.5 years of his career drafted.

That in no way translates to Coleman being able to perform at the SEC level.

It's a fact Coleman is getting drafted? It's not a fact until it actually happens and the odds are he WON'T get drafted. It's much closer to a fact that he won't ever see the playing field on Sunday than it is that he will get drafted

I have no love for Coleman. I think he's better than Simms.

I also like to get a cheap laugh out of the people that couldn't shut up about Crompton being drafted, but now that Coleman is he is just "worthless camp fodder."

Well, the 2009 team put 7 guys in the pros....2008 saw three guys drafted (thanks, LWS).

A fact suggesting 2009's team was deeper and more experienced, and, in fact, one of the most indicative markers for team success. Except, obviously, when coached by Lane Kiffin, as all the facts indicate. Of course, any freakin' Vol fan knew 2009 was deeper and more experienced, except of course those blinded by ideology.

Looking back on the talent Kiffin ran off too, it boggles the mind, actually.

Which wouldn't have happend had Fulmer remained coach. Crompton certainly wouldn't have been drafted and maybe not Hardesty, considering Phillip used him as little as possible the previous three years.

They managed to keep the NFL's leading rusher from last season from being drafted. That takes a special kind of incompetence.

2008
5-7 with a loss to Wyoming. It's in the books so please don't tell that famous lie that it's Hamilton's fault we lost to Wyoming. Your boy Phillip made them fire him. Hamilton wanted Phillip to retire at the end of the season but Phillip wouldn't have any of that. He wasn't going to go out with class like Lloyd Carr. Fulmer wanted the presser so he could talk delusionally about himself and his accomplishments. It was worse than pathetic.

For the record, I can't stand Kiffin and think he is a punk. That doesn't diminish the fact the program was slowly sinking under Fulmer. Facts are facts.

It wasn't just "slowly sinking." It had already submerged beneath the waves. Phil wsn't bring it back either, because he didn't have Cutcliffe to save him.

Thankfully, after a beneficial transitional year under that Fraud, Kiffin, I think the program finally has a firm footing and can start to crawl out of this abyss that Fulmer drove us into because of his laziness.

Wow. 8 players in a year an a half. That's if you're being generous with Smith... Oh, and one is a (mediocre) kicker.

Wow. At some point you dig down so deep into a nadir that you must start coming back up on the other side of the planet. You really don't understand this stuff, do you?

Remind me which two year period has been as bad as this one?

2005 - 2006 = 14 - 11

2007 - 2008 = 15 - 12

2009 - 2010 = 13 - 13

Hellfire, boy, 1979 - 1980 was still over 0.500!

Game, Set, and Match. Wipe your nose, junior. You have been played.

PS - 2008 is not a fact. It is actually an outlier. :eek:lol:

Yet the worst 2 years of the last 20 still had Fulmer at the head

LOL..it only boggles the mind of the severely uninformed. If they were so talented, then why aren't they making contributions at BCS schools.

BTW, Kiffin didn't run Creer or Paige off. They both left on their own account and neither contributed jack while they were here.

They are, and we've listed several in this thread.

Those not at BCS schools are doing very, very well too.

Creer had almost exact numbers as Hardesty the year he was here. He is on all the short lists for RB awards.

Uninformed. Good word!

You do know that the Doak Walker award watch lists generally contains about 50 players, right?

And yet never two this bad.

You have to cherry pick two years out of twenty, one of which is an outlier. I can just look at the real world outside the back door since his firing.

That's Game, Set, and Match.

Hell, Tyler Bray is on the Davey O'Brien watch list. Does that mean he's on the short list for QB awards?

What do y'all do? Smoke a crack pipe before posting?

Fulmer put a lot of kids in the pros.

Funny thing - I said, even when Crompdaddy was at his most gawdawful, he would get drafted. He has the NFL toolkit, and there is nothing you can do to teach that. Crompdaddy was always going to get drafted.

Hardesty would have started under Fulmer or Kiffin. Get a clue!!!
