Take Vandy to a bowl game last year if he had been their coach? I was trying to decide who was the likely better HC between Dooley and Franklin when I asked myself that question. IMO, with the talent at Vandy, I do not believe Dooley would have taken them to a bowl let alone take UGA/ARK and UT to the wire. Vandy was at a serious talent disadvantage in those games. I also wondered if CDD would be able to recruit as well as Franklin is at Vandy andI do not think so. I believe Franklin is a better HC from this thought process. I also believe that CDD better win 8 or more games this year or he may be shown the door. He might survive a 7 win season, I am just not sure.

So, who do you think is the better coach, CDD or CFranklin?:peace2:

First off, Franklin is a douche.

Second, could have just posted this in the countless other Dooley sucks threads.

Third, Dooley went to a bowl game his first year here. He went to a bowl game at La Tech. He will go to a bowl this year.

Fourth, Franklin is a douche.

Franklin is the only coach in the SEC with a losing record to Dooley, until that changes, I couldn't give two rat turds how he coaches versus the rest of the SEC.

Now this is a great example of a troll thread.

But to answer the question, who do I think is the better HC? My answer is potato.

So if Dooley coached Vandy last year, and franklin coached UT, would the game still have gone to OT? Would UT have won? Or are you saying Dooley could have taken Vandy's players and beat UT?

I say if Franklin had coached UT vs a Dooley coached Vandy team last year that Franklin and UT win big.:bash:

Hypotheticals are useless.

Example: If Les Miles had Coached UT and Dooley coached LSU two years ago, Dooley wins that game.

See how that works?

Franklin could not take the pressure that is applied to Dooley daily.

I think the hype surrounding Franklin right now is similar to the hype that was generated by Lane Kiffin. Is he a better coach? Maybe, but I don't think he has the better team. I'm personally going to go with it being too early to call.

What teams did the two play? Which decided won-lost column. Then there are the intangibles of which players are injured or ineligible and when. Then there is that thing called luck. I bet you can find 2 or more games where a team outplayed another and still lost. Got tons of yards, was repeatedly in the red zone, choked the opponents o death. But referee calls, untimely fumbles, a sudden weather change, or any number of things popped up and stymied the superior team, even to the point of them losing by 30 points or more. Football games are like earthquakes, shift happens. Dooley may have had Franklin's luck, maybe not. Looking at Vandy's schedule for 2012, Franklin is going get his bald head crammed into his rear.

Maybe OP should've asked Clay Travis instead of a UT message board. You may have gotten the more desirable reaction.
