What's that say about the UT people who hired Hamilton?



You mean the same geniuses that own the Cleveland Browns?

We wound up with Derek Dooley instead


Georgia sent Agent Muschamp to destroy Florida and Agent Dooley to wreck Tennessee. Can't wait till Saban retires. I think we're grooming Agent Ray Goff, Jr., for that job. After a few years they'll be wishing for Mike Shula again.

Both of you should know that we've known this for years and very likely so does Shaft. He'll still be good for some colorful swearing tho.

Bama fans can't say much, we hired Bill Curry over Bobby Bowden. Still pisses me off. I was a little kid and I knew back then that it was a major frick up.

I’m glad to hear this. All the idiotic things we’ve done must come out so our fans realize how they’ve gotten screwed.

And doesn't the same guy who owns the Cleveland Browns, also own the UT AD?

LSU hired either Archer or Curley Hallman over Spurrier at some point. That is likely worse.

The thing with the Kiffin hire is that just about everywhere he’d been prior he was hated for being an unreliable douche with underwhelming results. They still went with him.

It tore me up. I was so pissed. Bama was Bobby's dream job. He'd have poured his heart and soul into it. He probably would've killed it at Bama -- his statue in front of BDS too.

I'll never forgive Mike Hamilton for this, never.

I hope he rots in the fiery depths of Satan's anus for all eternity.

Shaft, would it make you feel better to be reminded that Lyle currently makes more money than Gary?

You're right, GP must have gotten a nice raise in 2015 or 2016.

You do know those were all Saban guys, right? Who's to say what Kirby is or isn't?

The last part is bull crap . He would be killing it at Tennessee right now if they hired him and he could take the pressure. After making those comments I don’t think he will leave TCU till retires. If he got a job at a bigger program and failed , he would look like a fool now .

Auburn passed on Patterson as well in 2008 and hired Chizik.
