Also, Phil also has a history of sexual advances. He said to Jamie Naughwright, “You like big men?” During this age of Weinstein, Al Franken, Conyers, etc., Phil is the last person they should be hiring.

I never heard this about him, but damn, if somebody high up doesn't like this, it's going to come out.

I really do feel sorry for Tennessee fans. I thought we were a dumpster fire, but damn!

Yep, those later Fulmer years look pretty good now, don’t they?

Fulmer has always rubbed me the wrong way, and his rumored advances wouldn’t surprise me if true. That is exactly the kind of man he has struck me that he is.

Fulmer also likes the girl students and lost control ofbthe thugs he recruited. UT reminds me of Baylor. Another school I used to love.

Kendall Briles to black recruits: You like white girls? We got a lot of white girls at Baylor.”

I don’t understand why Kiffin hired him.

You are clueless about Majors and Fulmer...

Majors had a heart attack and Fulmer took over as interim head coach...

Tennessee terrible that season .They were something like 2-4 when Fulmer took over...They immediately won two games everyone expected them to lose....

Majors didn’t like that and took the team back over against his doctor’s wishes...

They went right back to mediocrity and at the end of the season, he was let go and Fulmer was hired...

Funny how they can dig up all that dirt on Schiano, but conveniently forget about this.

Jamie Naughtwight has been paid a lot of money because of the sexual harrassment / abuse.

“Ah, the irony. A decade ago, the UT faithful couldn’t wait to run Fulmer out of Knoxville on a rail. Now, he’s coming back as their savior. Probably the best decision UT has made..in about 10 years.”

He did very well at Tenn. After he left, it’s been loserville at Tenn.

I remember it well. Knife in the back. Fulmer has a history of twisting truth so I wouldn’t buy into his version.

Majors was an ass.. I was coaching at a small college near Knoxville and was friends with Steve Marshall (now NY Jets line coach) and Greg Gibson, son of Vince Gibson, former Tulane HC...They were both coaching at Tennessee at that time...

I was in their office one day and Majors screamed down the hall to Cotton Jackson, the offensive coordinator, to get his filthy f*cking azz in his office right now!!!!

Marshall and Gibson just looked at me and shhok their heads...Marshall said, “Here we go again...”

They said it was like that almost every day in the office...No one like Majors...

Frank Emmanual, former Tennessee linebacker and All America, was coaching linebackers and Majors once called him an SOB...Emmanual picked Majors up and slammed him against the wall and told him if he ever called him that again, he’d kick the h*ll outta him...

As I recall when Tennessee canned Fulmer as head Coach it was none too graciously.

Fulmer will be a great AD. Now hire Tee Martin as assistant coach for 3 years and then move him to head coach.

I don’t feel one bit sorry for those arrogant hillbillies.

I’m going to enjoy watching them suffer terrible football for another ten years.

Currie deserved to be fired after how he handled the Schiano and Leach situation.
