Name one east team that has played Bama and LSU the past 2 years? The only other one is Florida and they got Auburn instead of Arky last year.
You said name one, and you named it yourself. I'm not sure what you're trying to tell him here.

I don't know if he will win championships. I have no idea, but very few coaches can do good with the situation Dooley was given. Very few.
So because Dooley has failed miserably so far, that means everyone would?

If he can't win championships, there's no reason to keep him around after this year.

Yes. You stated UT was the only team from the East that played both Bama and LSU. Just stop already.

If Dooley is fired, UT will get another unproven coach and will have to scavenge another recruiting class. I hate to break it to you, but UT doesn't hire big name coaches. UT has always hired up and comers and if Dooley is fired this year, it is pretty much a guarantee Kirby Smart is the first choice.

No one consistently hires big name coaches. That said, we won't hire someone who has proven as little as Dooley. What are we going to do, find someone who is losing in high school?

Your not good at comprehension are you? I said nor does any SEC east team have to play Bama every year and play LSU for the past 2 years?

I'm usually good at comprehension, but I missed that. My bad.
What are your expectations as a UT fan? It seems like you don't have high standards. Most UT fans on here seem to want National relevance again.

Lol, again sorry you are wrong and your only comeback is I'm ignorant. Just do some research.

Curt Maggit, Brain Randolph, Justin Hunter, I could go on. Not to mention, that almost all the recruits he signed last year got boosted in rankings, Peterman and Croom are perfect examples.

How has he failed miserably? Because he can't win 10 games with a team full of 18 year olds. With Hunter, UT wins 8 games. People seem to forget that we lost our 2 best players on offense.

10 games? Derek Dumbass couldn't get to six despite the fact Tennessee had considerably more talent than six opponents.
It's also embarrassing to have him celebrating like a champion after dodging a bullet against Vanderbilt. People bitch about how Kiffin didn't respect Tennessee's traditions, but at least he remembered who the big games were. Dooley just seems happy to get to a bowl game. It's a good thing we're playing the opener in the Georgia Dome, or Dooley would never make it there.

I want national relevance again, but its going to take time. People think UT will suddenly become a powerhouse in one year but its not going to happen. We are still a long way away from the talent level of LSU and Bama, and UT cant rely solely on instate talent to cheat the process.
The most important thing in college football is recruiting, and Dooley can do that. If he wins 8 or 9 games for the next 2 years, our classes are going to sky rocket. It doesnt matter how bad of a gameday coach he is. Miles isn't that good of a gameday coach but he is great at spotting talent.

UF has to play LSU every year and in 08 and 09 they faced bama in the SEC title. They played in the regular season in 10 and 11. So again your statement is false.

I said I don't know. I haven't seen anything to make me say he is the greatest coach of all time, but I haven't seen anything that makes him a bad coach either.
So we'll just have to recruit different players to fit in the system the new head coach wants? Thats going to take time.

Newsflash: The people in power know Dooley is a loser. 9 wins will save him, but he's not getting away with two 8 win seasons.

Guess you missed the Kentucky game, him losing the locker room, etc.

As opposed to just losing slightly less games over that same period of time and then having to start over anyways.

He has signed classes ranked around 15th both years, unless those classes are underrated that is not good enough.
Obviously anyone can evaluate the 4 and 5 stars, but when you are not pulling elite classes, you need some lower rated guys to pan out. Outside of Randolph, who has he evaluated well?

What does this prove? Pat Martin and Matt Milton got bumps as well.

How has he failed miserably?
He went 1-7 in the SEC last year with a loss to UK with a WR playing QB as well as getting blown out by any team with a pulse.

6 would be nice.

How the hell do you know that? Have you developed WAR for college football?

Every team in the SEC deals with injuries. Vandy lost their best offensive player and won more games than us.

Considerably more talent? You do know that Vandy could have more draft picks than UT this year. Experience is so important in football. I don't care how talented a player is coming out of highschool, they are at a disadvantage to any other players that have been playing in college football.
Juniors and seniors in college are getting world class training and has been in a system for over 3 years. They understand it. They have learned football. Ut has yet to have that luxury yet.
Kiffin also forgot about lesser games and got beat by Ole Miss, Auburn, and UCLA, all teams UT were much more talented than.
