Fulmer is still the best name.

I think we can agree firing Fulmer was a huge mistake. Because I guarantee the man would have won again, he is a competitive person. We have since then.

1. A talker that can have flashes.
2. A excuse maker.

I am not saying Fulmer should be hired, but if he was I guarantee he would get Chavis and he would be smart enough to bring a up and comer fo offense, "might" keep Chaney and I know he would keep Pitman and Graham and probably Hinshaw. A lot of peope rip Chavis recruiting, but he used to get high school running backs and beef them up as linebackers and it worked. If Fulmer comes back, which I say is as 10 percent chance, I have more faith in him winning. You know what with some motivation he could beat Saban in a few years and we know he can beat Richt. 50, 50 every year on that game.

All that being said are you better off then you were 4 years ago? HN, Fulmer had a bad season, but enough of this bull, we know that 2009 and on would have been winning seasons. 152-52

I bet he is on Hart's list, maybe 5th or 6th. I would support him again, he seems to have a lot of support from fans.

Be careful. There are still a lot of people that are butthurt over losing to Wyoming on homecoming.

If I hear that stupid crap again, I am going to puke. He lost to Wyoming, because he just got fired by the University that he gave money, blood, and sweat too...so guess what he would not have lost if he was not fired. Can we just recognize that? Both Vandy and UK were better then UK that year...at TN easily beat them. Should have just fired Clawson.

As someone mentioned on 104 Sport Talk here in Nashville...if so good then why no real serious offers out there from all these other programs in the past few years? There are reasons...

I talked to Phil this morning and he said that he is not interested in the job.


Turned down to the prom by the fattest chick in the class.


Could some one please just shoot me!

Fulmer couldn't beat our rivals. There are alot of coaches we could hire to come here and win steadily against the lesser SEC teams, if that's your goal. Personally, I don't care if we go 5-7 or 8-4, if you keep losing to Florida and Alabama every year.

Hart could announce Fulmer as new HC today and I would be 100% fine with it. I would fully expect 8-9 wins next year and a solid bowl game. He would be a value hire at 2.5 million and would jump start our recruiting. His record would have his resume as good or better than any option we have. I get the "he got lazy" stuff. After 17 years, people get burned out no matter what they are doing. at the very least I think Hart would be wise to have a sit down and discuss it with Phil. Ask him who he would have on staff. See if he has the fire and thinks he can fix this program. Who knows, Fulmer could tell Hart he does not think he could get it done and we move on. Phil Fulmer checked every box in Dave Harts "things he wants in a HC".

He almost tripled his wins over Alabama then lost, did you forget that. Dooley must have been creaming over your vision.

Fulmer should have been written off somewhere around '05.

Yeah because going to Atlanta in '07 sucked. Beating Cal in '06 was awful. I'm so glad we fired that national championship winning clown so we could go down this road. WYOMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! '05!!!!! How about eternity fools.

You can forget that, after that Gruden guy told us no. No one we can realistically get will unite this fanbase. Fulmer isn't a bad fall back option.

Fulmer should have been fired or he should have resigned earlier. The last several years he could not compete with the upper tier teams.
Why do you think he could compete now?

The league is much stronger now.

From '04 through '08 Fulmer coached his team through 24 losses!! That averages almost 5 losses per year!! Fulmer started UT down this road!! If you would get off his nuts long enough to look at a little history, you might know this!!

Does the 07 SEC championship game count as last few years or in fact the 04...our goal is to win the SEC every year, but the East is way better then what we are at now. You cannot win it, if you do not get there.

At least I could say I got pissed when they played bad when he was the coach, because I had expectations. No feeling after Gator game this year.
