UT fan since birth. Really got old enough and attuned in the early 90's for it to become a fever and for UT to become my family. I have been a proud vols fan through all of this debotchary of the past 7 years. I have the battle scars of baring the brunt of jokes and laughter for so proudly supporting my beloved orange during this recession of the power T all the while proclaiming that we will soon return to prominence, you wait and see. When Dooley was announced, it very well could have been the worst day of my life. I knew as so many did the he was way in over his head. As most I wished him the best but always knew he would not be the one and counted down the days that we would hit reset. Over the past 3 weeks I may have put in more hours than HART ( in fact I am pretty sure I did ) researching possible candidates for our return to the top. I did not like strong, I did not like gundy nor fedora. I thought we should have taken a hard run at Jim mora jr. ( he will be a stud). However when the butch name starting to get serious play, I did my dillegence and guys while he is not a household name, the only weakness I see is no SEC experience and no superstar assistants. I love his passion and energy, that is what made the kiffin regime attractive to big time recruits, except CBJ has class and seems not be a douche. Each passing moment I am liking the hire more and more and think if this is his dream job he will pour his heart into the program, bring us back and keep us firmly perched at the top. His success at this point will depend upon the staff he surrounds himself with. It is paramount that he retains and adds some vols flavor at the right positions to help breed tradition and vol passion. CBJ, it is all up to you know brother in orange, go out and get it done. Until you start to favor Dooley you will have my support!
