in response to IdahoVol:

While a much smaller group was calling for Pearl to leave, many still wanted him to stay. If I were Dooley, given all the phooey that has been thrown at him from our "fans", I would already be out of town with my family.
While I don't disagree with the firing, he definitely deserved to be treated better than he was. (relax - I'm know he gets a nice payout.) He always handled things with class and much of our fan base responded with anything but. In my opinion, having several coaches bail and then the Sunseri hire were the things that cost him his job. The program is much better off than when he got here and the next coach has the chance for success quickly. Dooley will deserve some of the credit for bringing in some pretty good players that also seem to be good kids -not easy these days. Yes a couple got in trouble, but most of the players seem to be good kids.

I agree with your observations Idaho. As a military vet I would not want to be in a fox hole with the majority of the "Vols Fans' On this site.
