re: Will Georgia go down the road Tennessee went after Fulmer

If UGA does it will be for totally different reasons. UGA just needed something new. UGA fans knew it, and weren't so connected to him as Fulmer at UT. Being a Tennessee boy and all. Smart shouldn't do what Kiffin did, and we all know UGA fans are pretty patient. As long as UGA doesn't drastically drop soon they should be fine.

Anyone blaming Dooley for issue at UT are the type that blame Bush for Katrina. Kiffin was UTs Katrina. It brought all the crap that had been kept in house to the top, and it all poured out. Patterson nor Sumlin wanted anything to do with it and/or able to handle it. Dooley took it all on when no one else would. He was the best stop gap we could have had at the time, and gave me enough glimpses of good in-game coaching to make me think with more stability and time he would have done better.

That's me though, and I look at his era as more an AD issue fix first than on the football field.
