re: If Regular Season Rick Loses Opening Weekend is He Fired?

They will not fire him. At some point you have to learn from your mistakes and that’s not firing a coach before you have a suitable replacement. Yes Vols fans want more but we also don’t want another repeat of if what the football program has gone through by furring Fulmer. Fulmer was fired only to hire a guy that was worse along with the next 3 hires. Making the tournament every year and giving yourself a chance to win is better than not making it. Only way you send Barnes out is that you have a better replacement.
