Yes, he did. Tennessee's success is pretty much attached that guy. His name alone supplements all of our good memories. When a Tennessee fan thinks of the name Fulmer, he or she envisions the glory days. That's how he wound up as the AD- Joe Sixpack and Son up on Moonshine Mountain thought he could resurrect the good old times of Tennessee football.

Anyways, this was an intriguing discussion. I'm about to fall asleep. I enjoyed our conversation.

Hope you are sleeping well. When you wake up, think more rationally about things.

You being only 23 years old, a good proverb to memorize would be this one:

Even though I was born yesterday, football didn't start yesterday.

Tennessee had a very rich football history long before Fill My Belly Fulmer stole the HC job from a man while he was hospitalized.

Fulmer didn't in any way make Tennessee who they were. Tennessee already had a formidable reputation long before Fulmer, unlike LSU before Saban.

Saban did, in fact, make LSU. LSU was a nobody with no history that amounted to anything on a national level, and not much of one on a regional level, before Saban.

That wasn't the case with Tennessee before Fulmer, and certainly not with Alabama before Saban.
