Maybe Dooley just doesn't want to be in a town in which a Mosque is planned to be constructed?

I have it from a good source he will speak at the mosque when it is built. Many potential Muslim donors will be there. It will be called the Big Orange Camel tour instead.

Actually, Big Orange Caravan would fit pretty well for that too.

Do not know why he was not there and have not been given a reason, I am sure coach had his reasons. 104.5fm was reporting that pat summit has not been to any of the caravans this seasons. It does not look good when not even one of the main head coaches or the ad shows up at one of these events. The main media will get hold of this and make a big deal out of it, it will not look good on us or coach. I hope that coach or ad hamilton will come forth and explain why they were not there, i know some funs are really tee off about the way they did not find out till that night at the event.

I am sure they had reasons for not being there, the events have been going good.

GO BIG ORANGE, FOOTBALL IS NEAR.

I'm the current UT Alumni President for Rutherford County. If he was helping tornado victims then so be it. However, UT called me yesterday at 4:30pm and said Dooley didn't get on the plane "this morning". Why wait until an hour and a half before our event to call me?! And it is 8:50 pm the day after, and they still haven't given me an explanation.

So the best way for you to approach it is to go on a message board and whine about it? Very professional there dipstick. I don't know why CDD didn't show if that is in fact the case but did you take two seconds to think maybe he was trying to help out with the tragic situation involving Aaron Douglas? Makes sense that you have not got an explanation since the news concerning Aaron had not been made public. I don't know if that in fact played into this at all but point is there is usually a good reason for professional people to miss an engagement. Best thing for you to do is stay off message boards at least until you get an explanation because when you get your explanation you may have egg on your face.

blind homers they seem to be plentiful. Fact is he should be making every effort to get our fanbase behind him.

The only blind people are the ones who didn't read the fine print saying that coaching appearances can change at any time.

A lot of you guys are picking at us Mid TN fans for being upset about this, but UT and or DD really screwed up.

If he couldnt come thats fine, but give better notice. He made it here (boro/MTCS) 2 weeks ago when he got paid 200,000$.
I with thousands more make that drive to knoxville every home game he should reward us back. Not to mention that stadium hasnt exatcly been a sellout the past couple seasons if the NFL Lockout continues they should try cashing in on some of the Titans PSL guys who gave up thier UT season tix.

CDD should reward you back??? What in the bluest of blue hells are you thinkin?? Goin to the games is your choice if it aint enough for you to go and enjoy the game dont go. Sorry he didnt make it to the almighty boro twice in two weeks. You dont see titans psl holders askin for part of the 9 billion the nfl's arguin over cause they go to the games. Just go to Toot's have yourself a nice cry and get over it life will go on I promise

I believe he's saying the jealousy is around HS football

Oh...I guess I would have known that had I grown up in TN; I didn't, yet, I still do not foster any love for Murfreesboro.

Guess the Yankees analogy is off.

I didn't know coaches' contracts usually required only two such appearances. Dan Mullen has been going all over the State of MS making appearances and has the faithful whooping it up and buying season tickets.

I would like to believe there was a darn good reason for Coach Dooley to not be in the Boro. I am saddened to hear that UT has not offered up and explanation or even offered a secondary date. The Athletics Dept has done some real bone headed things the past few years and I have taken it in stride. But when you don't offer up any exlanation to alumns and the fans in general then it is time to speak out. It is time for Hamilton to go. It is because of the fans and the alumns that the U has the kind of following it has. To disinfranchise them is to slap them in the face. GBO!!!

Agreed. I thnik most of us aren't upset with CDD as much as with UTAD. We all understand things come up, but noe one in the Boro knew about this until about an hour before the event, and that's just not right.

Asked and answered.

Nobody cares about Murfreesboro. At all.

Especially UTAD and CDD.

It might not be "right" - but it's clearly true.

Murfessboro + Overwhelming apathy toward the thoughts, ideas and feelings toward its inhabitants = "good reason"
