this. fulmers recruiting machine broke down at the end. didn't rodney garner(?)leaving for uga have a lot to do with that? ut had to turn to south carolina for recruits and spurrier began to win those battles so ut was kinda out on an island. kiffin expanded the recruiting field but took lotsa thugs; even more than fulmer. ut is a tough recruiting place. while they spend more money than any other sec school in recruiting they just don't have the base in tennessee that they need to be consistently successful.

Please. Other than Fulmer thinking he didn't need to work after '98 and Dooley being incompetent, Tennessee hasn't had trouble recruiting since Bill Battle.
