The Coach that CDD should emulate....

[MDBJJC]

Saban as a mentor = good enough for me. If he can do what Satan has accomplished in the same amount of time, I promise not to complain.

ha...ha...i admit i was dumb asking that but just as dumb as everyone thought that Cowher and Gruden might come here to coach and a lot of volnation was pushing that for the last 3 years....

I'd be more likely to believe Gruden than Cowher. Gruden at least has some connection to UT with his wife being an alum.

46-15-4. Not taking anything away from Coach Dickey....great accomplishment. But to say that he should be emulated over Saban (2 national championships at 2 different schools), Meyer (national championship, 2 undefeated seasons at 2 different schools), and Stoops (national championship, 4 NC games this decade) is crazy. Saban (DuBoise, Franchione, Shula) , Meyer (Zook), AND Stoops (Blake) all took over programs that were in DEEP trouble. I would take any one of those guys. If CDD can turn UT around like Saban, Meyer, or Stoops, I think vols cans will be happy for a LONG time.

Coach Dickey won two SEC C'ships and a national championship in six years at Tennessee and left a team that was 11-1 the year after he left under a 28 year old incompetent neophyte named Bill Battle.

“The younger Dooley is not only the right kind of coach, he is the right kind of MAN that Tennessee needs to lead its football program at this point in history,” Barnhart wrote. “Tennessee got away from the things that made it great — the fundamental principles of General Neyland — with the hire of Lane Kiffin. It went reaching for something that was totally out of character for the institution hoping to keep pace with the University of Florida and to get back to the top of the SEC. Tennessee is Robert Neyland, Bowden Wyatt, Doug Dickey, Bill Battle, Johnny Majors, Phillip Fulmer and Peyton Manning. It stands for something fundamental and unchanging. It does not alter its mission and values hoping that talented players will come. It offers talented high school students an opportunity to be part of something special — something bigger than themselves.
