If Tennessee is a good of a job as everyone says it is, then why have the last two coaches been Derek Dooley and Butch Jones?

I promise im not trolling, im very indifferent about UT, but i just dont know why everyone thinks they will just pluck anyone they want?

Short and sweet:

Lane Kiffin left so late-around January 12th-that the AD was rushed into making a poor decision. We should have kept an interim for a year instead of hiring Dooley

Dooley had the program in such bad shape that coaches such as Gundy and Charlie Strong would not take the job, so we settled for Lyle.

IMO UT is a solid top 15 job.

LSU hires a retard and wins games.

UT hires non-retards and loses games.

LSU > UT

The Nebraska job has some things going against it that the teams listed dont.

Jimmy Sexton, agent of all of the above including Mike Hamilton, who was doing the hiring of Kiffin and Dooley. Sexton became Butch's agent this past summer and is also McElwain's agent.

Sexton, the puppet master.

Somebody won a "peace prize" without actually doing anything. Means nothing to me.

The problem is when ADs aren't kept in check and you have morons making the hires.

See:

Foley
Alleva
Hamilton
Hart

Tennessee fans were bragging about hiring him back when he chose to work for Kiffen instead of Miles.

Now that "actual retard" is about to bring his team into Neyland Stadium and skull drag your Volunteers.
