Dooley says he is not being fired...

[99gator]

After further reflection, there would be a few predicting 10-2 with a rematch against bama in the sec title game

Plenty of crickets in Neyland.

If DD stays you could hear a fart in Neyland on game day.hmy:

We will be doing the same thing next year, we would get fired up before the season start and then when the DUCKS mop the floor with us start waiting on BB season to start, now I know how kentucky feels.

You think the schedule next year would deter a coach from taking the job??

 

[98stage2]

So at this moment...Derek Dooley is our coach in 2013 and I would like to hear your perspective if the scenario plays out!!

I'm a glass half full kind of guy so my thought is, if he stays, at least we know it's either his last year or it's Dave Hart's last year...:good!:

 

[99gator]

No.

But, he'll want a buyout clause too

 

[barknoxbrawler]

Post apocolyptic type living.

 

[keckjm]

just as worth discussing he will be fired....no indication from anyone with any real power he is gone!!

If Hart doesn't fire DD he's pretty much firing himself. A lot of ppl are on edge and Hart means nothing to many Vol fans as he's a Bama grad and hasn't proven anything at UTK yet. Hart will either hit a home run here or will strike out and find himself unemployed. Vol fans, including myself, are tired of the endless BS with our football team. All of us are tired of seeing Bama, Fl, Ga, LSU, and SC beat our butts every year. I grew up watching us beat their busts every year and it times to regain that power.

 

[GoodoleRockyTop3]

No.

If we give another coach gauranteed pay even tho he is employed somewhere else I will stop going period!! Dooley and Chaney has money waiting for them even coaching elsewhere!!

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

The streak goes to 9

And you will buy yet another pair of jorts to wear to that game also.

 

[peyton4heisman]

Opening day attendance 11,463 but announced at 85,322

Don't pay attention the gators...they really not looking very good in November either!!

I'm thinking that every new thread that is started re: "is Dooley leaving/is Dooley staying" should include a 'hot chick' pic. And maybe even cowbells. That way there would at least be something in the thread that makes it worth opening.

 

[tnvols72]

It would be bad for business for UT, I'm not so sure they would get 60k a game

I understand that but I was looking at it from a totally different aspect because no on knows for sure what's going to happen!! We are convinced he is fired!! I honestly believe that the actual players have more of a say-so and influence than anyone else!! We treat them like puppets and say "here is another coach, lets go" and don't take into consideration what they PUT in this program!!

 

[GoodoleRockyTop3]

If Tyler Bray, CP, Hunter etc...say "if Dooley stays, I stay" or some talented scholarship athletes tell Hart they are gone if he goes...what do you do??

Players have absolutely no influence. None

Tell them to stop ripping off the plot from the movie Hoosiers and say thanks, but we can lose 6 or 7 games without you.

 

[QVOL81]

You are a complete idiot. Dooley and Sal are unquestionably out of here.

 

[strongtower]

yeah I heard this crap this morn from radio where Dooley said he hasn't heard anything & Hart said he hasn't made a decision, what the hell is wrong with these pathetic AD's we have. Man up & grow a pair

 

[allvol81]

Yea just like saban said he wasnt goin to be the coach at alabama and we all know how that turned out

 

[Dekram]

Quarterback Tyler Bray said of Dooley, "He's going to be here the rest of the season...and we're ready to get these last two for him."

May have been covered... found it interesting. He back tracked later, but still that was what I thought anyways.

 

[VolsRule]

dooley's attorneys are probably working on some huge buyout package, with tons of money and benefits on the way out.

 

[Jax_Vol]

Do,you think Dave hart had to bite his lip to keep from laughing when he said " we haven't made up our mind"

 

[JACK8254]

Hart just doesn't have the stones to tell him the truth. Even though I have been calling for dools head since Trey Burton's 80 yard scamper, I still like CDD as a person and feel sorry for him.

To gain 5 million dollars ( more than anyone on this board will earn in a lifetime) for doing a horrible job is not my idea of someone to be pitied. Dont worry about Dooley, he will survive. Us- I am not as sure after the hole he has dug for us.

 

[Spawn]

Bite his lip and grit his teeth. Derek, I haven't made a decision on you yet........but Jon is taking your place.
