Things just continue to crumble around Univ. of Fourteennessee (Announces NCAA investigation)

[BamaNation]

ahem... In case anyone missed it, I don't care for Tennessee.

This is old news but I'm just gonna leave it here.

Tennessee fans got what they wanted, and now the school is the laughingstock of college football

Even with the reported hiring of Phil Fulmer, does anyone in Knoxville know where the football program is going, or what it should do now?

sports.yahoo.com

My favorite line:

" Thus the seventh-best job in the SEC remains unfilled. (At least it was seventh-best before this fiasco; probably lower now.)"

 

[BigAlinKnoxville]

Just in case anyone needs a refresher or primer on Phat Phyllis' shenanigans and why the official TideFans.com position is that he's scum of the earth:

Phil Fulmer and old tricks known well by Alabama football fans

The acrimony between Phil Fulmer and Alabama football fans goes back decades. Phil is back to old tricks, Tide fans know well.

If it's true beauty is in the mind of the beholder, the same must be true for hatred. The hatred toward rivals by Alabama football fans is also relative. ...

Still a good read.

I think I just heard Phat Phyllis say, "Tennerse will be out of business within 2 years." Anybody else catch that?

I hope not. We need to beat them another 14 straight.

 

[BamaMoon]

I think it's fair to say as long as they have Phil they will remain ill!

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

Wouldn’t be surprised if he gets sent away with a settlement in one hand and an NDA in the other.

That's how they do it in awbern...

I hope not. We need to beat them another 14 straight.

And then 14 more after that just to be certain.

It would take days to read information about Albert Means, the NCAA and Phat's involvement in the scandal. 10RC was trying to get Albert as well. Also at the same time another player received $10,000 from a "Non Fan", woman in her 80's. NCAA ruled it was okay since she wasn't a fan. It goes on and on. So the youngsters have no idea the feeling us old guys have. Phat had friends in NCAA.

That river runs very deep indeed. And I will never forgive Fulmer, nor the Tennessee fans who cheered him on. A lying, cheating, sniveling snitch he is indeed.

Heck I'm still mad they brought him back and he had to gall to come back.

Awwww heck?

 

[Redwood Forrest]

When Jeremy was approached for interview I said "don't do it"-- but he went and did it. Why wouldn't he listen?

Wrong pschycology I think. He probably was listening. Like when my Dad told me not to buy that Plymouth then had to live with it...and in it.

Most of us on here said he would be better to wait for another opening. Tennessee was already a dumpster fire before he took the job, it's just a bigger one now and he's in the middle of it. This may very well hurt his future opportunities for another P5 coaching gig, unless he goes to a mid major and serves some time there with above average success. But what a mistake he made by going to UcheaT.

 

[Padreruf]

JP will come back to Bama, rehab his reputation and enhance our defense at the same time, spend @ 3-5 years here at UT's expense, and then be ready for a P5 job. He's too good of a coach to be sidelined...and CNS loves a reclamation project. BTW, that last aspect of CNS' personality/character is and incredibly admirable trait. He doesn't have to do these...and yet he does time and again.
