A very good article that speaks alot of truth about the current UT program and CPF. For example:

"There is no doubt that Tennessee is always loaded with talent. Fulmer has Top 10 recruiting classes every single year. However, there is equally no doubt that his coaching staff is not Top 10 nationally. Virtually none of them are in great demand by anyone else. Fulmer has let down the very players he recruits by not having a top staff to coach and develop them. He has also let down the donors who pour money into the program hand over fist to pay his salary and build unrivaled facilities.
This total bomb of a year didn’t have to happen. Fulmer bears total responsibility for letting things slide to the point they have. His hires are critical to get the program back on track. The wheels are off the wagon and a major fix is required. Fulmer must be more proactive for the rest of his career and recognize the changes that need to be made before such a season as this ever happens again.
There have already been some rumblings among UT boosters that Fulmer is simply bringing on more inbreeding on his staff and is not serious about a true national search to upgrade it. There is no question he intends to keep his hires within the Vol family if at all possible. He certainly values loyalty. By making these moves, he is drawing a tighter circle around himself. The consequences of that can be both good and bad, and the merits of it will surely be debated by the fans and donors.
There will be no excuses next year for a lack of ability to get the job done during practice or in preparation. These men will know how to win games and have done so at other places. If they don’t do it in 2006, with all the talent that is on campus already, everyone, including Fulmer, should be looking for another job in another field or simply retire. It will be do or die for the Fulmer regime next season. His reputation and his job may both be on the line with these hires, and he is staking both of them on them. There is no margin for error next time around."

We replaced a lousy RB coach and a fair recruiter with an average RB coach and a good recruiter.

We need an excellent RB coach and, at a minimum, a good recruiter.

Love you Trooper, but your bush league to me. :bump3:

I've said it before, I'll say it again, by this continued inbreeding :crazy: , Phil is tying his own noose or a "tighter" circle"..around his own neck.

So be it. If he's right, he stays, if he's wrong, he has committed suicide.

To me, it's a win-win for UT but a situatio we will have to endure. :(

how can you even pretend like you know what your talking about? You dont know what goes on behind the scenes and what is said on the practice field. how can you even put yourself on the same pedestal as someone that should have a real say in what goes on. this is the same guy that had 2 1000 yard rushers, he has gotten arian foster ready to play this year and foster is becoming something very special. Not to mention getting coker and hardesty last year. i dont understand how you can say he's not a great coach. so what if he is close with his players and wants to get excited with him! Thats his style!

If all that is true ,I wouldn&#39;t be shocked one day if a RB at another SEC school ran the ball down our throats down the road...Coached by Mr. T. Trooper.

I&#39;m fer Trooper&#33;

Wow, UT fans are fickle....especially taking the word of a guy that may or may not be accurate.

I&#39;d be interested to go back to a bunch of the threads on this board about how everyone thought Trooper Taylor was the next best thing since sliced bread.

interesting...

If the fumbles on the goal line reflect coaches then trooper should go. He does mask is ability with his jumping around. I dont like it.

I don&#39;t care who Fulmer hires as long as the Vols start winning again&#33;

As much as I blame coaching for where we are, I just can&#39;t pin those isolated events on TT. I know fundamentals and teaching the little things culminates in big things during games, but in this case, eeehhh....

Here&#39;s the deal on TT:
Good energy
Good recruiter
Green coach with little technical expertise
