I hope DiNardo has learned to say UT since his days at vanderbilt. He hated all things orange when he was in Nashville. Of course, now he is an anayst, which means he was a losing football coach who needed a job.

DiNardo had to be one of the dumbest coaches in SEC history and perhaps all of major college football. He rivals Bill Curry and perhaps Ron Zook in the SEC.
Other idiots that have graced SEC sidelines include Ray Goff, Ray Perkins a/k/a Mr. Personality and the soon to be on the list Ed Orgeron...) but DiNardo tops them all.
