The current state of Tennessee:

Dooley's successor will become the Vols' fourth coach in a six-year stretch.

The Vols haven't earned more than seven victories in any of their last five seasons. This will mark their fifth losing season over the last eight years.

Tennessee faces some financial issues as it chooses its new coach. The university's athletic department posted a $3.98 million budget deficit for the 2011-12 fiscal year in part because of buyouts it was paying to Fulmer, former athletic director Mike Hamilton, former men's basketball coach Bruce Pearl and former baseball coach Todd Raleigh.

The football program is on probation until August 2015.


My, how the Tide has turned...


Don't forget the pending lawsuits from Pat Summitt , now Dooley, plus Dooley's buyout.

There is still more than enough money for UT to go out and make a coach the highest paid coach in the SEC.
