Phillip Fulmer is going to be the next UT athletic director.
It's going to happen.
Heaven help us all.

He isn't worse than Hamilton.
He isn't worse than Bama Dave.
He'll piss off the Bammers.
It's an easier job than the HFC.
He's 66. He won't be the AD for more than a couple of years.
He might be able to get some of Butch's deficiencies corrected.
Hopefully he's paid attention to some of the stupid shit that Barry Alvarez has done and doesn't do the same stupid shit.
Blackburn made 3 or 4 real nice hires at a low level program. There's a real good chance that he's been pumped up beyond reality. His recent, snarky tweets might indicate that he's not the super AD that he's being billed to be. Pissing off Charley Anderson because DB disagreed with the Dooley hire doesn't display that he's skilled at keeping the boosters' feathers unruffled.
I'm not a big Fulmer fan and don't believe that he was an innocent figure in Johnny's demise, but I'm okay with giving him a crack at the UT AD job.
The most likely worst thing that comes of this is that it stirs up his haters... like that idiot ZR that Basilio allows to spew his garbage on his show.
The guy that Alabama hired was just an unknown name (to most UT fans) that was on the short list below Blackburn. Now that Bama hired him everybody is acting like he'll be better than Dickey, Mal Moore, and Jeremy Foley.

UT paid the guy $6 million to go away because he couldn't make good decisions concerning running his own program.
Now UT wants him to run the entire UTAD? Yeah, that makes sense.

Best Scenario: Fulmer for some time, then Blackburn?? If Blackburn isn't hired by UT he is going to be hired by a good power 5 type program sooner rather than later. UT has it's opportunity now to make that move. No guarantees that he'll take the job later. |
