Both of these coaches were "relieved of their duties" in 2008...
Dabo replaced Tommy @ Clemson.. 2 NC 7 ACC Titles 4x COTY(Coach of the year)
Meanwhile Tennessee is about to be on their 7th coach since 2008...

At least SCAR has a coach and an AD

and doesn't have the NCAA breathing down their neck right now.
Good gracious! Which program is worse off right now? I guess you are right, though, at least UT has a trophy case and some winning tradition. Both are in for long roads, though.
What if UT hires a HC who swoops in and hires several more assistants away from SCAR LOL!

I tend to be "wordy" lack the ability to be brief.
Fulmer was a solid coach at TN for many seasons -> 152-52. Just the year before being fired won the SEC-E. TN Fans believed they deserved better. I was at the Peach Bowl when they were pissed at having to play a school like Clemson (they lost). Since firing Fulmer, TN has not been relevant. It is ###### hard to replace a winning coach. They have not.
Tommy Bowden is a good man. He went 90-44 at Clemson. I lobbied to bring back Danny when he was hired, and after being fired. I was wrong. I look back now and give Bowden credit for changing some things here. He was a poor game day coach, but very good in most areas. I would say we got lucky with his hire, and even luckier with the next man up.

I vividly remember rumors stirring that they were looking at bringing back Danny..

As Tenn HC, Fulmer's recruitng mindset: there are no rules where Tennessee is concerned-Phil F is a POS-
