The Doug Dickey Rule = Hire Kiffin (Must Read -- Not Too Long)
"The worst decision I ever made," were the words Doug Dickey said to me at church one Sunday in 1984 when he was working a day job in Lakeland, Florida.

Coach Dickey had beaten Bear Bryant 3 times in a row (1967-1969) as UT's head coach (3-2-1 v Bear), and won the 67 and 69 SEC Championships, but his heart lead him home to Gainesville where he'd been the QB in the early 50s. Vols felt betrayed, having given Coach Dickey his 1st head coaching job, and embarrassed because Florida was a 2nd-tier program.

Instead of UT continuing to dominate the SEC and play for NCs, Dickey's absence at Tennessee left a vacuum that put Bryant and Alabama in the record books. We've never really recovered. Dickey's coaching career was over in 9 years, after going 58-43-2 at Florida and only once finishing higher than 4th in the SEC. He was 0-4 in bowls.

Swallowing our pride, forgiving the insult and using our heads, in 1985 UT named Doug Dickey its Athletic Director, a post he occupied through 2002. His time as athletic director was notable for the improvement and expansion of the university's athletic facilities. Neyland Stadium was expanded to more than 100,000 seats, and other additions included the Thompson–Boling Assembly Center and Arena, the Lindsey Nelson Baseball Stadium, the Goodfriend Tennis Center, executive suites at Neyland Stadium, the Neyland–Thompson Football Complex, and the Thornton Athletics Student Life Center. Dickey also had the unusual experience of watching his son, Daryl Dickey, become the starting quarterback for the Volunteers in the middle of the 1985 season and leading them to a 35–7 win over #2 Miami Hurricanes in the Sugar Bowl.

For those of you with too much pride to forgive Kiffin for the poor decisions of his youth: IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU. It's about this university's great football heritage and the pitiful mess it's become. As a football coach, Kiffin is as good as anyone. Knows more about offense than Saban. Knows a lot more about coaching than he did 8 years ago. Next to Miles, Kiffin Has a better resume than anyone we have considered or are considering.

Hiring Kiffin is an easy call. He wants the job. He'll bring in a top coaching staff. We'll get our Top-5 recruiting class back. The kids will love playing for him. If he doesn't work out (unlikely), we'll make another move in 5 years not wondering whether we twice lost lightning in a bottle.

This from another KIFFIN thread.

SIGN THE DANG PETITION.

MOVE IT FORWARD.

Kiffin is a slimy snake. We don't need to sell our soul to the devil.

And how about RANDY SANDERS? Why is he not being mentioned? He has the pedigree and the coaching experience. Most important: he bleeds orange and would probably bring Jay Graham with him...along with a whole lot of FL recruits.

All the folks that protested in the recent "near hire" should once again, let their voices be heard. Peacefully, of course! Get up, get the posters flowing, and let's bring Kiffin back. I, for one, did not agree with Lane Kiffin leaving as he did, but he did bring excitement back to UT football. We must not judge the errors of our youth. We have all made these mistakes in life... He left to take a job he had long desired. His opportunity of his lifetime. Experience is the best teacher. I believe in a chance to redeem himself. I would be happy to have Kiffin back and Currie, sadly, should be replaced. Go Vols!
