So, Cobbdawg, did it take you 12 minutes to log out of the CobbDawg account, log in as CajunBama and then complete another post as CajunBama? I notice how identical the 2 account pictures are.

It is pretty weird how all of Auburn's last 4 coaches have had either an undefeated season or NC game appearance. Even though the first 2, Bowden and Tuberville, were both mediocre at best coaches. While the last 2, Chizik and possibly Malzahn, have been outright bad coaches.
The one hit wonder at Auburn.

As previously noted, I think in this thread, or at least on this board, I am a Bammer but kind of like UGA and think that a strong UGA is actually good for UA,and vice versa, due to competing and recruiting against common enemies.
Completely agree here, exact same rivals.

You seem to have a rather unhealthy obsession with Auburn the past few days.
No. He was a good coach
Not a good coach.
Outright bad coaches don't navigate a team in turmoil through an undefeated season like he did. He ended badly but may get another chance one day.
With 4 total years of data, one of those winning the SEC? I bet you think McElwain is a legend after one season too

One of the many differences between Richt's and Fulmer's situations is that GA is one of the most prolific states in the country as far as HS recruiting is concerned
Fulmer had no issues here. UT has historically been one of the best national recruiting schools due to their lack of in state talent. Especially east of Jackson. Fulmer had no issue going into Georgia. UT still doesn't if it needs to. Heck Dooley had some success there that is still paying off after he left with us being able to get Kamara. When UT is good it has no issues going into Georgia as if it were it's own backyard.

You need to review more fulmer recruiting classes. The late ones.
Posted on 8/17/16 at 7:22 pm to djsdawg
His late ones Georgia or anywhere had issues. Not the point. When UT is doing well Georgia isn't an issue when UT wants to go in, and play. To much talent for Georgia to build a fence for others to come in that need too. Especially close ones like UT.

Will Georgia go down the road Tennessee went after Fulmer

Some of the most talent rich high school districts in the country are in and around Atlanta. Tennessee has to recruit OOS. To high schoolers, that 1990s success is just a hair more relevant than 1930s success. Georgia just can't fall that far.

Knoxville is 3 hours from Atlanta

Also...Fulmers bigger recruiting issue in his later years was brought on by his decision to go chasing the younger talented QB brothers of players, and getting screwed. Chasing Jimmy Clausen by having to accept Rick Clausen. Who was no Casey, and could have been a solid 3rd maybe 2nd string backup. Same with CJ Leak, and losing out on Chris Leak to UF. No real good QB options until the end when he got Taj Boyd and Bryce Petty, but that was for not after Kiffin pulled those schollys. Just to leave Dooley with no real good QB option to start his first season.
What happened at UT during the '00s is not comparable to any school in the SEC right now or in the country really. (maybe Auburn could be one to keep an eye on, but who knows). Lots of 'Old Boys Network' complacency issues in the UT AD during that time.

We were lucky to avoid our issues getting to that level.

No doubt. Both UGA, and Richt needed new life. Concerning for me cause UTs climb back up the ladder was factoring in Richt at UGA. Ha!!

I wouldnt worry. There is a guy there now who was second fiddle to Saban on defense and has never coached a game as HC ever.
Tom Herman woukd have scared the frick out of me at UGA.

Never. Georgia has what Tennessee has never had...an ample number of black high school athletes within the immediate area. Even under Fulmer, UT had to recruit nationally and dip into areas way outside of East Tennessee because there are hardly any black people that live in eastern Tennessee. The four most impactful guys on that national championship team. Deon Grant, Jamal Lewis, Cozey Coleman, and one other who I cannot think of at the moment all came from the state of Georgia. Throw in Peerless Price from Ohio and Tee Martin from Alabama and you see the problem. UT doesn't have the luxury of "cultivating" a particular recruiting area, whereas UGA can do that within 75 miles of campus.
Didn't used to have that but lately that is changing and it is helping Butch and will likely really help stabilize TN into the future.
On this team alone who is a title contender you have the following TN raised born impact players
RB - Jalen Hurd - 5*
WR - Josh Malone - 5*
OT - Drew Richmond - 5*
DE - Kyle Phillips - 5*
DE - Derek Barnett - 4*
LB - Jalen Reeves Maybin - 4*
S - Todd Kelly Jr - 4*
NB - Rashaun Gaulden - 4*
CB - Justin Martin - 4*
