Watching the DD show right now, how many years do the Vols give him to turn this train wreck around?

What do the Vols expect this year, next, and the one after? Where does he need to be to keep his job?

Try asking the same questions about Georgia. Get back to me when you have some answers.

Without Sanctions, his leash will be similar to Rich Rod's. With sanctions, he might need to be committed. They are just so depleted in every facet.

For this year, the big thing is not letting it all go to hell after the wretched month of October is over. We'll likely be 2-6, and we need to make sure we don't make that 3-9 or something like that. We should be able to win a few at the end of the year. It's hard to determine a set number of wins as far as the next few years are concerned. I'd say he better win 9 in 2012 to be safe. He may be okay with 8-4, but I'm not so sure.

Does anyone expect Tennessee to turn this around right away. Fulmer struggling several years before he was let go, the Kiffen debacle and now Dooley who looks iffy right now should cause concern for UT fans. The ability to nationally recruit is hampered IMO if you go a period of 3-4 years of being down. Add to the fact their instate base is limited UT may have a tougher road back than some think! Today's kids have short memories and tradition doesn't carry teams as far as it used to.

Given the utter apocalypse he inherited at UT, I'd say even the Tennessee fan expectations have to be pretty lenient for his first year.
