A Very Sad Day


A very sad day today indeed for those of us that have enjoyed so many victories under Phil Fulmer. Whether he could have turned it around next year or not, it was clear the underlying currents of today's landscape had swept a lot of his previous luster away. Go ye therefore ole Phil down in Tennessee lore, and bask in the glory that was your success. Keep your head high as you did an admirable job in almost all aspects of your tenure. You lead with great class, never rubbing anyone's nose in it when we were winning and losing with dignity. We were never in trouble with the NCAA under your watch and your players genuinely respected you.

Besides, if we continue to suck in the future, you can come back like Majors and take great joy in it. I know you wouldn't do that and here's hoping you start relaxing like heck in the interim of your professional career.

It IS a sad day for UT fans. However, it had to happen. We are no longer relevant in college football. Fulmer, as always, showed class. I will miss him. As I said last week, next year will be really rough.
