RIP Phillip Fulmer’s Coaching Career
If you saw Jamey’s post about Phillip Fulmer speaking at the Daytona QB Club you were probably left with a bad taste in your mouth. Phillip Fulmer is bitter. Try as he may to hide it, the man had his feelings hurt.
That’s life, though. People get fired. Most aren’t given a $6 million golden parachute [...]
Fulmers Craves Attention
Former Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer wants to coach next season and Fulmer is making sure that people don’t forget his name.

What Tennessee’s Loss to UCLA Really Means
This loss was as crippling to the team as it was to the fan base. Much like the fans, this team was starting to believe that they were back and that last season was a fluke. You could tell after Crompton’s first pick that the doubts began to creep back in.Â

Former Vol Haralson Shines in 49ers’ Win
The San Francisco 49ers “upset” the Arizona Cardinals 20-16 on Sunday and linebacker Parys Haralson led the way with one sack and forced Kurt Warner to get sacked by another player during the game.

Tennessee fans have a new enemy on UCLA’s team. UCLA defensive end Korey Bosworth said, “There will be 100,000 rednecks against us down there, and those are my people.” Bosworth made sure to include himself as part of the rednecks, but you know that Tennessee fans will not enjoy this quote. Will Bryce Brown run [...]
Kiffin #8 On Coaches Hot Seat?
We mentioned in earlier posts that we think Al Groh, Dan Hawkins, Steve Kragthorpe and Ralph Friedgen will all get fired once the season ends. It is one thing to back up these statements with facts, but it is another thing to make the same statement about a coach that is in his first season. You could [...]
