Yeah, at this point you almost have to pity those poor bastards. They are gonna be passed. They will come to terms with it and rally the troops but good lord fellas, this year really couldn't have been much worse for those vol fans.

I mean, Kevin Steele? As head coach? Really?

I know Baylor was an awful job, but they literally went 1-31 in the Big XII. 1-31. Their only win was against 2-10 Kansas because Kansas missed like 3 extra points.

His 9 wins overall were

- 1999 North Texas (2-9)
- 2000 North Texas (3-8)
- 2000 South Florida (1AA at the time)
- 2001 Arkansas State (2-9)
- 2001 New Mexico (6-5)
- 2001 Southern Illinois (1AA)
- 2002 Samford (1AA)
- 2002 Tulsa (1-11)
- 2002 Kansas (2-10)

I honestly can't think of a less exciting and more depressing hire for Tennessee at this moment. I don't care if he brings in Sean Payton to coach the offense.

Not if you're old enough to remember the late 1990s. Frick 'em.

Man, you should have heard one of my Vol friends talking before the season started. This was going to be THEIR YEAR.

And Fulmer is the acting AD in charge of the hire.
