I do remember towards the end of his career, the plays were ultra conservative with the saying “three yards and a cloud of dust”. Then, beginning in ‘92 when Fulmer took over, we were flying all over the field! The only handicap I give Fulmer was that he was similar towards the end of his...

Spurrier seemed to be a pressure cooker type of coach who played favorites (insert Terry Dean). I don’t know if Peyton would have done well under him compared to Cutcliff.

Can anyone remember how he was hired away from us to Georgia? Was it for more money?

I don’t keep up with recruiting as others do but, is he pulling in players like he did under Fulmer; I so remember Deon Grant and Jamal Lewis and a few others!

Good luck to both! Hope each represents well.

I remember going into the ‘95 season every one seemed to be against Fulmer promoting Chavis to DC. Then as that and subsequent seasons played out, everyone forgot about that. I wonder, had Fulmer left to be HC at another program, would Chavis and Cutcliff followed or, would they have stayed...

That offense was literally Tennessee’s offense for two decades; with variations of course. On that subject, seems that (Marmie) installed our 4-3 that we used the next twenty years, also. Of course, everyone was running 4-3 so, not sure. But, I am certain that Cutcliff ran Walt’s offense to much...

If we don’t match’22 this year, people (fans) will probably be calling it a Mickey Mouse offense that was a one off.

Yes @Freak but it was back in the 60’s. I’ll find out which team it was for sure (if I can remember to ask). When we played them there in basketball, our fans threw oranges at them.

It is widely known due to Peyton and Fulmer both stating that the success of Shular is what brought him here. Majors was the coach then. But, I do understand what you are saying.

Do you think had he not been let go in favor of Fulmer during the ‘92 season, he would have won a NC here and, if so, before the ‘98 season? Regardless if he had stayed out the ‘92 season or won the power struggle, Fulmer would have been gone to another program. Would Fulmer have taken coaches...

This is an old but interesting read on his recruiting after he was ousted at USC. https://www.espn.com/blog/ncfnation/post/_/id/108318/kiffin-deserves-credit-for-uscs-recruiting-turnaround I think, had he stayed here, we would have been just a little better than USC during his time there...

The thing is, most people don’t realize that schedule was kinda on the brutal side. Seems to me IIRC we lost to a Duke team that ended up winning the ACC that year. Edit: was the next year they won the ACC

How many of these UDFA signings are just three day tryouts ?

That’s exactly my point!
