Phillip Fulmer resigns

[bthees1]

if the Kiffin clan only wins 5, what will you all say?

[vols112]

mike leach offense is trash vs sec. im so glad we didnt get him. im real glad we got kiffin and the best staff in college football

[alexTHEbeast107]

No offense but wtf are you talking about??? You say not to go outside the Tennessee family but then say they should hire Mike Leach from Texas Tech. Hiring Mike Leach would mean they're going outside the family...lol

Anyways, Kiffin is our new coach

[HapaOhio]

UT could hire Barney Fife or Deputy Dawg.

[texaskstar]

how is Mike Leach NOT outside the "family?"

[cadborasaurus]

I think he's talking about "coaching style" being the "family". I don't know, but that's the best I can come up with.

[Jayhawks147]

I'm surprised Fulmer wasn't fired three years ago.

[Pitino4Pres]

Kige, give us an in house candidate you'd think would be a good choice. Can't change midstream like that! Even I'm confused!

[youfearme99]

they better be getting on the phone with bill cowher. inside the family my ass get some new blood hell cant you see WE SUCK same old offence and defence every year hell get some change in there give other teams a different look. to hell with loyalty win freaking ballgames

[totalBS86]

this guy says dont get out of the tn family but he says the head coach of texes tech would be a good choice??? what is he talking about?? someone tell the me answer to that one

[KingBen602]

i bet david rutcliffe now regrets taking the duke job

[KC1021fm]

if coach cut would have stayed...Fulmer wouldn't have lost his job! so, the scenario you are imagining probably would have never happened. the dave clawson hire is what led to Fulmer's demise.

[cadborasaurus]

Dave Clawson is a good offensive coordinator. It's just that his style is so far different than what the players were used to that it never really stuck with the players.

[DPKFOUR7]

Look OUTSIDE.

[cloycebox]

Kige, you really changed horses in midstream there. Not just with the "inside / outside the family" discrepancy as others have pointed out, but with you first saying that "they should not get away from what they've been doing the last few years" and then advocating that they hire a coach whose approach to offense is basically the polar opposite of Fulmer's.

[mptn1245]

guy doesn't have a clue what he's talking about...didn't you see how he paused when he mentioned who he liked as coach. He doesn't have a dang clue.

[sixstrings4jbo]

dude seriously, OUTSIDE the family is exactly where we need to go. This Fulmer-ball doesnt work against Saban, Richt, Miles, or Meyer. Look, I'm sad to see him go too, but it's time. And Mike Leach is not in the family.

[WhiteWhale5384]

Don't want to go outside the family then you pick Mike Leach from Texas Tech. You make so sense KigeStein!
