Alabama has "Ears" Whitworth
Auburn has Doug Barfield
LSU has Curly Hallman

...You get the idea. Where will Dooley rank in the list of all-time worst SEC football coaches?

He is the worst coach at Tennessee in the modern era by a sizable margin.

4-19 in SEC play.

Lost his last game against both UK and Vandy.

Very sub-par recruiter.

I would say bottom ten all time in the SEC.

Lane Kiffin won as many SEC games in one season as Dooley did in 3 years.

Behind Joker. And that's pretty damn impressive.

Worse than Mike Dubose, better than Curley Hallman.

If a coach comes in and does good next year, I think that will make him seem even worse.

Still, Kiffin pretty much sabotaged the program before he left, so its hard to completely blame him. That being said, pretty damn high.
