Heupel is a good one. These are the only 2 men with the smarts, guts, and fortitude to coach Tennessee to success in the last 3 decades

They both definitely have the guts for it.

Heupel got alot of criticism but he’s building a strong program. Even last years 9-4 was a step in the right direction for Tennessee

The bigger the gut on our head coach, the more we beat Alabama. I'm noticing a theme

Fulmer was a piece of low life trash.

This is true.

He wasn't a great coach, he benefited from Alabama being in turmoil after Stallings quit.

The program built and talent assembled in the 90s under Fulmer was just too good at the time for anyone in the SEC that was not named Florida to keep pace with back then. Had it rolling. Starting to roll again fortunately

So not that great like I said.

Not even the best coach in his own division.

Fulmer also is a secret witness turning to save Tennessee from the NCAA . He ratted like a low level street drug pusher to stay out of prison.

Dude was 100 games over .500 by the end of a career that concluded with an induction into the college football hall of fame. Only SIX head coaches in all of SEC history stacked up more wins than Phillip Fulmer. 6!

Don't get me wrong, buddy wasn't perfect or anything. But he stacked up some nice accomplishments and had Tennessee rocking and rolling in his hey day.

Chumley will be exposed for the overhyped poser he is over time.

Who exactly is the posing Chumley in this scenario here?

Our old national championship winning college football HOF-er Fulmer? Or our current old natty winning college QB head coach? Do clarify

The number 1 reason Fulmer was successful was because Georgia hired a total dud when Dooley retired, and couldn't get rid of him until he took the program down the tubes. The high school talent in Georgia was basically ceded to Tennessee and a bit to FSU too. Both won MNCs during that time. Frankly, Heiple is a better coach than Fulmer, but he doesn't have access to talent like the former did.

Yet he beat LSU at LSU the last time both played each other.

You all always say that, but then you don't even have a specific narrative to point to in regard to it.

Yall just throw shite against the wall on that Fulmer topic, and you think that's all need to do.

It's like Auburn sullying that girl from Boise State with innuendo
