Who hired Mike Hamilton?

Who approved all of Mike Hamilton's hires?

Keeping Fulmer > Hiring Dooley.

Oh, how I wish hindsight were 20/100

there were a lot of good things about phil, but if you want to see where he'd be had he stayed, look at mack brown in Austin. it was clear that he felt entitled and was coasting after the early 90s.

Not to start this debate again, but we went to the SEC championship game the year before he was fired. Letting the man to go out with dignity would have been best and that's where I agree with the OP... I can't stand Mike Hamilton.. We fired Phil in mid season, Lane Kiffin ran off great quarterback like Tahj Boyd and then left us with a bunch of duds. (are any of them left?) Then we went through coaches through Dooley and staff that made Phil's bad decision on Clausen seem like Einstein. We would still have one of the best defensive coordinators in college football, Chavis.

Anyone at this time who says that Firing Fulmer was for the best is on crack.

I'll agree that the two clowns who followed Phil couldn't carry his jockstrap. A far more serious problem with the Vol program than Phil's complacency was the idiot who pretended to be our a.d. Tennessee is easily one of the top ten coaching jobs in America. Hammy couldn't get any of the names on everybody's short list to return his call. Think about that for a moment. Think about the five million dollar golden parachute he gave the zero with the famous last name and lifetime losing record. Phil did great things in his heyday. Over the last three years he was h.c., nobody wished more than me that he would turn it around. It wasn't to be. But then, had I any idea of the seminal stupidity of the man who would fire him and hire a successor, I would have prayed for a century long, iron clad contract.

Can we burn a mattress of him in effigy every October 16th along Peyton Manning Pass?
I'm with you on that, bro. :) He'll go down in UT history as a major blight on this program. Chose Kiffin (who had proven nothing as a HC...still hasn't) over Gary Patterson. Chose Dooley over Sumlin. What's the common denominator, here? Hamilton believed 2 Coaches with losing records > 2 Coaches with Winning records. :loco: Go figure that one out, why don't ya?

Fulmer wasn't fired for one or two seasons. He was fired for letting this program steadily decline over a 10 period. We steadily slid to the point we are today. You better believe it was the right call. No drugs needed to come to that conclusion.

Lets not leave out Boogereater Cheek and he hatred of college athletics. We have far too many very liberal academia types in control that are doing everything they can to destroy the AD. Gov Haslem needs to fire Cheek and do some house cleaning,

If you think Fulmer would have done worse than 23-28 (combined records under Dooley and Kiffin), and if you think the roster would have been worse if Fulmer were still here, then I don't know what to tell you.

In a perfect scenario, we give Fulmer 3 or 4 more years, keep a full roster, win 7-10 games a year, let it look like he retires (forcing him out), then hire Butch.

You do remember Fulmer only won 5 games in 2 of his last 4 years ?

You would think by now you'd realize how ridiculous that tired line of letting program slip sounds given what has happened since.........keep defending it to the grave though.....
