You should worry about your own breath and try to argue the facts being brought up in the thread (the facts are your enemy so try to direct your anger and frustration there).

You should have said that earlier in the thread - it would have made me stop wasting time arguing with you.

I don't really have an emotional investment in our little back and forth...but it appears otherwise...I'm scaling down...you managed to mildly annoy me and that's reflected in my posts...this little shell game you have as guardian of the Dooley Legacy seems to keep you vigorously involved typing and away from the Wild Turkey...far be it from me to disrupt that process...carry on

I don't think our current defensive staff would be looking forward to play against Dooley coached offense again after what he did to them when we demolished Cincy a few years ago.

You need to put down the Dool Aid, you have had way too much for your own good.

Anyone could've coached us to a win, the talent disparity between UT and Cincy was miles apart.

And we should all hate Dooley for coming up with the idea to formalize this use for UT football, right? Should we also hate Butch who is as big on the idea as Dooley was (or if Dooley was wrong about setting that program up why has Butch not dismantled it - cause every :crazy: redneck knows full well that whatever no-good Dooley touched must be ripped apart - and while you are it dismantling things all the players Dooley recruited should be dismissed from the team for agreeing to play for that terrible person who hated the Vols so much that he wore orange pants every Saturday (in spite of his UGA loving father getting sick over it).

Dooley was the conductor of the train wreck that was UT football for 3 years. If you can't see that now, you never will.

I don't do this all that much either. Here and there I go at it for a day or two and then go away (too busy with real life). Anyway, I'm not defending any legacy - Dooley did not succeed here and I'm not questioning that - but he tried his best and is a decent man who does not deserve to be ridiculed and thrashed (he did not do anything to UT to deserve this - unlike Kiffin).

Michael Palardy says hi. He also told me to let you know "don't f*** this up" (your Dooley defense argument that is).

Other than take millions of dollars for being a nice guy. Heck I'm just jealous no one has given me millions for being a nice guy in front of media. Oh wait I didn't pretend to be a head coach

I get this..I really do...I liked him personally...and don't wish him ill will, but people are going to vent frustration at his unsuccessful tenure until it plays out...and it will..
Case example, how many diatribes against Bill Battle get their own threads?

1. Dooley may been part of one of the best offenses in TN history but he couldn't win any meaningful games with it. Yes the defense sucked but look at A&M. Their defense is terrible but they still win games. Dooley Ef'ed it up every time. (He was also part of one of the worst offenses the year prior when we had a streak of 3-4 games without scoring a single offensive TD).

2. Dooley may have started a program called Vols for Life but he sure didn't live by it. Just ask all the former players that felt unwanted around their alma mater.

3. Dooley quit on the team and the program mid season last year. He stopped recruiting and destroyed relationships with high school coaches across the region. There is a good chance half of the legacy players we already have committed would even have gotten a phone call from Dooley at this point.

How any Vol fan can take up for the guy is beyond me.

It was a train wreck in terms of results (which are obviously most important). But that does not mean that Dooley did not do a lot of good things to leave the program in better shape than he found it. Also, even if he was the conductor of the train wreck as you say, that should not give people right to insult and ridicule him - he tried but things did not work out as we (and him) wanted so people should move on (if you really have to hate someone better to focus your anger on Kiffin who actually earned the right to be hated).
I'm amazed that on this forum people are even going as far as ridiculing Fulmer who won the NC for us (the ignorance and stupidity on this forum can be off the chart).

Really??? He had more coaching turnover in his three years than anyone else in the nation that I can think of. Could that have been due to the numerous rumors of how he treated his staff and people around him? Fact- If you're an a-hole as a boss..people leave! Former players didn't like him, coaches jumped ship at the first sign of a better, or even lateral, offer.

Did he give his best effort to make this a winning program? I'm sure he did, but guess what? It wasn't good enough. He is probably great as a position coach in the NFL. Good for him. I'm glad "Precious" is in Dallas, they deserve him!

I can agree with you on the Fulmer bashing. Whatever bad he did at UT, he did 100 times more good. I was born in 87 so Fulmer WAS UT football to me for most of my life; prior to the Kiffin-Dooley crap Fulmer was all I knew. He'll always be well respected to me, but I do feel the game had passed him by and he benefited from a down SEC. His only consistent competition was Spurrier and we all know the song of that story..

Wilcox was the only significant coaching turnover he had - which ended up costing Dooley his job. You can choose to believe Wilcox left because he did not like Dooley, or because he wanted to go back home, or because he could see that the fans were getting angry after that Kentucky loss and Dooley was not going to last (I think this was the most likely reason). Also, remember that Dooley upgraded his staff every year - brought in Pittman and Graham which were both great hires - but all of them together could not make up for Sunseri disaster - if Dooley managed to keep Wilcox probably our only loss last year would have been Bama - that is how good our offense was and much we were damaged by Sunseri hire - funny enough at that time that did not even seem like it should be a bad hire - coming from Sabans defensive staff and coached a lot of NFL LB's - who could have known? But I guess Dooley should have had the crystal ball to see the future.

Interesting you were born in 87 - I was a student at UT in 87 and played varsity sports at UT during those years (won't disclose which sport). By the way, this also decreases the chance that I'm Barbara (in spite of people insisting calling me that when I go defending her son :)).

Why would you not disclose which sport? As long as it wasn't swimming it shouldn't matter. And if it was you should be proud. Those guys are ripped. Lol

In all seriousness. I don't hate Dooley or kiff, in order to hate someone you have to feel something for them ( used that on an ex ) he just was not a head coach But in all fairness I would have took the job as well.

Because this is an anonymous forum and I want to stay anonymous. The sport I played did not have that many people on the team and if someone really wanted to that info plus the years I played could perhaps let them figure out my identity.
And while it was not swimming, I'm proud to say that I had the full athletic scholarship and also good enough grades at the end where UT offered and even paid for my graduate school (I will never be able to repay for the opportunities UT presented for me so my love for the school is off the charts unconditional).
