Can't Do It, Sally...

To the UT fans that think Fulmer has earned the right to set his own date…As an Arkansas fan, I have 2 words for you. Nolan Richardson. He won the Championship in 94, went back to the title game in 95…then lost his mind. And we gave that bubble-headed idiot a pass for far too long.

By the time he finally uttered those famous words “If they go ahead and pay me my money, they can take the job tomorrow," he had done serious damage to our program…enter Stan Heath who won just enough to keep him from getting fired. Now here we are 12 years after our last title game…FINALLY looking like we have some Conference potential. I’m not talking NCAA tournament…just in the SEC.

Sounds pretty similar to Fulmer’s situation. Lots of optimism for the SEC, but nobody’s talking national title. Thanks for the title, Phil, but much like Tessio told Tom about Michael in the Godfather, “Tell Michael it was strictly business. I always liked him”…then maybe take Phil out to be shot...
