Dooley sucks (merged)

[mkh423]

So sick of this myopic viewpoint. It's as bad as "If you don't like America, get the Hell out!". It's a stupid, one sided argument that deals only in absolutes. "If you don't like the cherry on your sundae, go eat a bagel!"

if the fans cant support the guy how will the recruits be able to support him.He will be fine

 

[Vol in Tears]

Kind of like the myopic view of "He went 17-20 at La Tech, so he has to be bad"?

Yes! Exactly. I'm not "anti-Dooley", just "anti-judging the guy on either his history OR tonight's presser".

 

[God_glows_Orange]

I couldn't get on due to work circumstances for most of the day today

but 17-20 is his record, and Hambone is hiring him at UT

what a letdown

I love the Vols, and I'm sick to my stomach right now

crazy man, dooley's the man
has everything TN needs to build a championship team

 

[iuvol2012]

I'll never pull for bama

My point is, you might as well pull for him. He is the new head football coach of Tennessee, like it or not.

 

[Vol in Tears]

Tell that to the OP.

OP! Hey... OP! Give the guy a chance!

 

[God_glows_Orange]

17 and 20 isn't winning
it's losing

you don't know what the hell you're talking about...quoting a general stat w/out knowing the circumstances

 

[iuvol2012]

OP! Hey... OP! Give the guy a chance!

:lolabove::lolabove: Nicely done :good!:

 

[vol_in_ar]

I agree with you. OP has no clue what he is saying.

go pull for IPUPUI
do they even have a football program

fans can support him, it's you who can't support him

IPUPUI? Does that university even exist?

I was referencing the future, not the past. Stop twisting peoples' posts into something that supports yours.

Fair enough.

This is as asinine as people saying that he's the worst hire of all time. Let's try to stay somewhere in the middle of the spectrum here.

17-20 is not a myopic view...it is a fact based indicator. Yup , he was in a competative conference without a lot of talent on his team. Do you suppose he is coming to the same situation only at a higher level of the game ?

His lack of experience in big time football and his lack of stand alone recruiting are indicators as well . (Stand alone recruiting meaning his only verified success has come when he worked for saban ...who has always recruited well with or without dooley)

I would just look at the indicators . Risky hire to say the least.

then tell me something about him; tell me what you know

 

[God_glows_Orange]

yes, see the post: 6 things to support dooley, it's gotta an SEC sign by it

gotta go with his record and 17-20 is a loser

^this. :good!:

 

[VolsRule]

He'll be able to recruit better players at UT, and hopefully win more games than he did at la tech.

 

[vol_in_ar]

yes, see the post: 6 things to support dooley, it's gotta an SEC sign by it

so he coached under saban,

big whoop

While I understand where you're coming from I find it hard, as a Vol fan, not to support this guy right now. I would call LSU pretty "big time" football. And while he was under Saban in those recruiting years, he was the recruiting coordinator. Remember, Kiffin was under Carroll during his phenomenal recruiting.
