Hiring Derrick Dooley to begin with. He had a 17-20 overall record and was coming off a .... get this .... 4-8 season. At La Tech.

We hired a coach that had just gone 4-8. At La Tech!

I know Kiffin left us a week prior to signing day, but we could not have been THAT desperate.

Dooley was a historically bad hire.

"IIIIIITTT'SSSS THIIIIIRRRRRRRDDDD DOWWWWNNNN!!!" at the approximate decibel level of a Saturn V launch.

Lamar Alexander - showed up for his welcoming celebration with the faculty as UT Prez wearing black pants and a gold jacket. Then cut enrollment by about 7000 or so and was befuddled when the University ran out of money.

J. Wade Gilley - used the UT airplane to fly his mistress to Knoxville on a number of occasions.

John Shumaker - he's the moron who spent something like $15 grand of UT's money on a grill for the President's house while calling for tuition increases.

Jimmy Cheek - hired Mike Hamilton after a "nationwide" search that apparently extended no farther than Stokley Athletics Center then brought the UTAD under the Chancellor's Office instead of the Athletics Board of Directors.

Bruce Pearl - tearfully delivered a mea culpa at the press conference dealing with his recruiting violations. Then he literally walked out into the corridor and committed another one.

Tony Robinson and B.B. Cooper - apparently unwilling to rehab his knee and make gazillions in the NFL, T-Rob chose to sell crack out of his apartment which he shared with Cooper. Their arrest was announced within hours of the '99 win in Tempe.

Wade "The Fade" Houston - apparently unaware that 5-22 will get you fired.

Buzz "The White Wade" Peterson - see above

That's just off the top of my head - there are others

Jeez, we're going to need a bigger website ...

Leonard Little

After leaving a birthday party in 1998, Little crashed into and killed Susan Gutweiler in St. Louis, Missouri who was on her way to pick up her son from a concert. When tested, his blood alcohol content was 0.19 percent, 0.11 points exceeding the legal limit of 0.08 in the state of Missouri. Little received four years probation and was ordered to undergo a thousand hours of community service.
On January 18, 2003, with charges dating back to 1999, Little was charged with communicating threats and making harassing calls, according to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg police department. Little's attorney, Scott Rosenblum, said that the charges were filed after Little and his former girlfriend Michelle ended their relationship. Rosenblum added, "We don't think this case is going anywhere. It was groundless from the beginning".
On April 24, 2004, he was arrested again for driving while intoxicated after being stopped by The Ladue Police Department for driving 78 miles per hour in a 55 mile-per-hour zone on Interstate 64. At the time, he had red eyes, smelled of alcohol, and failed three roadside sobriety tests. He later admitted that he drank alcohol to the police. After being convicted of misdemeanor speeding but acquitted of DWI, Little received two years of probation on May 6, 2005, and was prohibited from drinking any sort of alcoholic beverage during his time of probation.


Dwayne Goodrich

On January 14, 2003, Goodrich was involved in a hit and run accident that killed two people. On January 15, he was arrested on charges of vehicular manslaughter in relation to the accident. Goodrich struck and killed two motorists who were trying to rescue a man from a burning car on a North Dallas freeway. Though witnesses claimed Goodrich was going 100 mph, the state's accident reconstruction expert at trial estimated that Goodrich's car struck the victims and driver door of the wreckage at a considerably lower speed of between 54 mph and 80 mph.
