I respect Fulmer, but he is no longer the coach. I just hope he doesn't do like Johnny.

My God that's the first time I've seen Fulmer since he was on ESPN during last year's bowl season. I hardly recognized him. Oh well, stay classy Phil, good luck if you ever get back into coaching.

Are you serious?

I once had respect for Fulmer....but that left the second he was going around the country to the various QB clubs making snide comments about the Vols and in a few cases on National Television....forgetting all the while he got six million dollars of the state's and donor's money. If that don't make you happy nothing will.

If he truly cared about the program he WOULD NOT have been going around making those negative comments.

There is no question in my mind he is/was bitter. Pride got the best of him...and that's why he lost his job....that and all you have to do is read a few player comments about the difference now versus when Phil was here....it was clear it was time.

Go Big Orange! Looking forward to filling the cupboard that Phil left so bare.
