Wow. How anybody can be so tone deaf as to post this, given where this program is and has been since his firing....it’s far beyond me. Fulmer is the second best head football coach in Tennessee history, period. Had a phenomenal run early after taking over, tailed off a bit in the second half of his career...probably would’ve bounced back strongly had they not fired him (in a shameful fashion) in 2008 since he had a great class with a couple stud QBs coming in.
But hey, he lost 3 freaking SEC CHAMPIONSHIP games and ONLY had 4 10+ win seasons his last 8-9 years.
So True, I have never witnessed a Tennessee football team play with more grit, pride and determination, than those of Phil Fulmer and Johnny Majors (Neyland not withstanding).....It was truly fun to watch Tennessee football when the team laid it on the line, unlike UT teams of the last decade.......God I miss the John Ward days of Tennessee football and the pride with which the Vols played
