I have followed UT football for better than 30 years and the 3 years that Derek Dooley was the head coach was by far the biggest cluster in program history, IMO.
Granted the program wasn't in elite shape when he took over, but if anything, UT still had name recognition if nothing else, after a great 15 yr run followed by a few years of mediocrity with Fulmer and one year with Kiffin( granted he kept the brand in the limelight if nothing else.)
How does a perennial SEC power house get to the depths Dooley took us?
My question is this...with the current coaching staff and roster, could Dooley return us to prominence, or would he **** this up too?
