I remember when all of UT's sports were good to a degree. Baseball, Football and even basketball all had winning seasons. Then they hired Mike Hamilton and now UT is struggling in all three of the big 3 sports.
It's a simple as that.
In the last 5 years UT has lost a Hall of Fame Football coach, a basketball coach who took the team to new heights of success, a baseball coach who consistently won, have gone on NCAA probation, hired badly to replace those mentioned above and it's going to get worse before it gets better.
Bad hires: Kiffin, Dooley, Martin, Raleigh
Still to be determined: Serrano (though I believe he will win and was hired by Joan Cronan) & Butch Jones (seems like he will be a good hire for now).
Yes folks, I put all of the blame on Mike Hamilton and then Jimmy Cheek - two clueless individuals who care more about making money than anything else.
