It is a fine line, though. Tennessee got rid of Fulmer and has suffered ever since, but Texas kept their great coach too long and let the program slip into mediocrity.


Tennessee held on to Fulmer too long first off all. Secondly, Tennessee is a program at a significant disadvantage compared to many of its competitors seeing as there is nowhere near the talent in Tennessee that you have in Louisiana, Mississippi, Bama, Carolina, Georgia and Florida.

UT is a better example. 2009 they were in the title game for a second time like Miles, and lost. Followed it up with mediocre seasons and one bad season: 5-7, 8-5, 9-4, 8-5.

Mack is the closest thing you'll get to a comparison for Miles except for that Mack built that UT program while Miles inherited one that was already in its peak.
