Bobby Johnson resigning from Vandy..

[coffeevol]

They really should go after Fulmer. I mean its Vandy the expectations are already pretty low.

relavance?

The relevance is simple: Teams with no football history to speak of don't get to talk trash to their fellow historical bottomfeeders. Cal-Stanford is no different than Indiana-Minnesota. Nobody outside the two campuses care.

Oh, no, Vandy will continue to suck, just as the did with Johnson at the helm.

I hope they hire Fulmer. I'd enjoy the chance to beat him on an annual basis as punishment for running UT into the ground.

Bobby Johnson is lying through his teeth right now about "just decided to retire." As if coaches just leave in the middle of July.

 

[cnotevol]

He is retiring from it all. He loves it but wants to be with family now.

The interesting question is who will replace him.

Is it a serious thought that Fulmer would be interested?

 

[checkerboards09]

Why not??? He took Vanderbilt to their glory day. He's already a legend there, no need to taint the legacy with another 1-2 win season.

 

[MemphisVol1485]

Compared to what? His overall record isn't any better than DiNardo's was.

He did have one of Vandy's TWO bowl wins. He had also produced first round talent to the NFL in which Vandy has rarely done if ever. It will be almost impossible to sustain a winning record as a coach there with the conference competition, terrible facilities and academic standards. When it comes to coaching jobs, that place is a death bed, and I personally feel like he did a hell of a lot with what they have to work with.

sorry. i didn't have the hatvol rulebook available.

I'd bet $100 that Fulmer has already made calls regarding this.

 

[iuvol2012]

I hope they hire Fulmer. I'd enjoy beating him handily on an annual basis as punishment for running UT into the ground.

Edited to reflect reality.

 

[jbeard82]

Wow. He quit just bc he wanted too. Weird.

 

[checkerboards09]

Doubt it, Fulmer has mentioned that he wants to go to a place that can win championships. If he honestly believes he can do that at Vandy, he needs to have his head checked.

 

[head1]

Hey we might win that game now.

Woohoo

 

[Burhead]

Hey we might win that game now.

Woohoo

We would have beaten Vandy before this, and will do so after this. We will always win at least two games each year Kentucky and Vandy.

 

[droski]

even with johnson vandy wasn't likely to win more than 3 or 4 games.

 

[Velo Vol]

Which is a better football coaching job: Vanderbilt or Duke?

 

[coffeevol]

I'd say it would be easier to get wins at Duke in a weaker ACC, however both are much more difficult to get students in

I thought I heard Duke was going to be a little more lax on that per request of Cut.

Wow George Plaster actually broke a story

 

[Escape Goat]

Yeah, something is definitely up. He's not getting forced out, they wouldn't do that this close to the season.

Thanks for the update Mr Zeppos.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Wow, didn't even tell his team beforehand; they found out just like the rest of us.

Not cool.

 

[Escape Goat]

Compared to what? His overall record isn't any better than DiNardo's was.

He atleast got them to a bowl game, and won it for them.

 

[EZE]

They should go after John Gruden, but it will be hard to get him away from Tampa Bay.

Lane Kiffin might be ready for another move by now.
