The facts are that no Tennessee coach has gone as long as Phil Fulmer between SEC Titles and not been replaced! Think about that! I know we are all too soft these days to put the old bull out to pasture, but I'm real testosterone-filled man behind this keyboard and am fully prepared to let someone else handle this.
So to all the sunshine pumpers who come one here saying we can just replace the OC, but leave Fulmer and John "Third-and-Chavis" in place, stop deluding yourself.
These two guys have a lot of belly, but no fire in those bellies. Fulmer has no recruits lined up that I personally believe in, and I wouldn't believe in them as players even if they came here and fought every down like their lives depended on it.
Chavis will never coach again after Tennessee fires him, and he certainly won't have a good defense in a major conference.
Sure we were in the SEC Championship Game last year, but how many years before we get back there . . . 3 or 4?
That is the kind of patience this fanbase can't be unfairly asked to exhibit. I mean, I am editing this at a redlight and it has been 37 seconds so far and I am really angry. This morning I had to tell a crossing guard off because she thought some snot-nosed runt's safety was more important than me getting to my job at Subway . . . a little late sure, but most people don't realize we serve breakfast so the owner lets me slide . . .
Anyway, please don't tell me Fulmer is the 3rd winningest coach by percentage in SEC history. Look at what he inherited! A program in its prime.
Anybody on this message board would have been in the NCAA Hall of Fame with that situation. Any kindergartner knows that you just have to put 3 or 4 fullbacks in and play power football and all opposition will run toward its own goal line in cowering fear.
I am sick and tired of waiting for Tennessee to be relevant again!
It is time to sack Fulmer! We don't have time to worry about who might be out there to replace him! I saw Mike Hamilton once at the next urinal in an Applebee's and I can just tell that he is a winner who will make the right hire!
Somebody else has the money to make this happen today! Fire Fulmer now! And if anybody tries to come into this thread spewing facts and reason, I'll shake my head and call them an idiot.
