Yes, yes, I know. I've been on Fulmer's case for sometime now because the program HAS slipped but you gotta give the guy credit. He turned what seemed like a disasterous season into a reclaimation project of all time. Considering that he wound up 10 and 4, with the four losses at a point total of a gazillion, Cutcliffe and Phil worked their magic and squeaked out a respectable season.

 

I was wrong about their fate but am proud to be wrong. Tennessee made us proud once again especially in a year that the top teams were falling off the chart every week. Had UT won their SEC championship game, they were as eligible as anyone to contend for the national championship. Debatable, of course. Anyways, to ALL those that jumped me for stating my negative opinion, I say that's my right, but it is also your right to defend and I'm man enough to admit it.

 

So bask in the glory of a 10-4 season and be thankful. There's always next year and by the looks of things, it should be shakier at UT than ever. OUT...... /cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="B)" border="0" alt="cool.gif" />

Well, looks as if Fulmer is making the right moves with the coaching hires. I really, really, really like the Clawson hire as OC, and I think Drayton may make the Trooper departure seem less important.

 

If somehow he can get Loeffler in here as a QB coach, I'll give him a standing ovation.

Give him credit, he's making good moves. I hope he continues to amaze us. I believe he has gotten the message. Let's hope he can finish what he's starting. /cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="B)" border="0" alt="cool.gif" />

The more I read about Coach Clawson, the more I like him. When I heard that his goal every year is to have a 3,000 yard passer, a 1,000 yard rusher, and a 1,000 receiver, I knew then we made a good hire. He's a pro-stlyle, multiple offensive set kind of guy, which will mix well with the Tennessee philosophy.

 

And for those of us clamoring for some younger guys on the staff, assuming the receivers coach comes with Clawsom, his last three hires will be 40, 36, and 32 years old.

 

And he's ruffled Urban's feathers in the process which makes it all the better. Now just replace Slade and I would be tinkled pink.

What's Urban ruffled about?

Sounds like Tennessee isn't the only school that might be looking for a new OC. Major headed home to Texas???

 

 

Yep. The poor offensive performance the last half of the season showed the need for an experenced OC. It wasn't totally Coach Applewhite's decision to leave. The writing was on the wall. Bama will be running more spread next year. Coach Saban is recruiting the athletes to run it.

 

My guess of the top 5 candidates for OC job (Coach Saban hasn't asked my opinion so he may have someone else in mind /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> )

 

Georgia Southern head coach Chris Hatcher

Louisville assistant head coach/offensive coordinator Jeff Brohm

Green Bay Packers' quarterback coach Tom Clements

Boise State offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Bryan Harsin

Southern California assistant head coach/quarterbacks coach Steve Sarkisian

 

Dark horse candidate - LSU offensive coordinator Gary Crowton

      The New Word of the Day at Maryville High is Tuition.  Everytime the superintendent hears about the yellow paint on the football field he gets Tuition he could stick that can of paint up someone's behind.

      GoFundMe for Blackman Freshman with Spinal Cord Injury

      By mat73557 · Posted

      QUICK UPDATE -  First, I see a lot of wrestling names that I recognize on that GoFundMe.  THANK YOU so much for helping this family.   After the long surgery on Sunday morning to repair his neck, Jacob suffered a collapsed lung.  Sometimes this happens after long surgeries.  They had to put him on a ventilator to get his breathing back on track.  He came off the vent on Monday morning and they put a BIPAP on him to help control his breathing.  As of today, Thursday, the BIPAP came off and he is breathing well on his own.  He is working towards drinking a glass of water and hopefully eating some solid food at some point in the near future. Jacob can "feel" when someone touches his legs, but there is still no movement.  His parents are beginning to prepare for him to be moved to the Shepherd Center in the next few days.  He will be there in Atlanta for 30-45 days.  Im sure he will receive excellent treatment. Please continue to pray for healing for him and if you are so moved, please contribute to the gofundme link above to help in any way you can.  The go fund me is doing well, but this is going to be a very long road for these guys Im afraid.. Thanks again! Sells
