Well of course he has.  I've just become numb to it.  At this rate, I'll be shocked if we don't lose Chaney and Hinshaw before next season.  Why not just turn over the entire staff en masse?  Has that ever happened without an accompanying head coaching change?

[volmeister]

Anybody have a theory about why all these coaches are making lateral moves to other schools?  Is Dooley that hard to work for, or do they think he will not be here much longer?

[VinnieVOL]

Perhaps some combo of both. 

Whatever it is, I don't remember ever being so personally indifferent about TN sports.  There comes a time when the roller coaster starts making you nauseous and you want a break.  I'm certainly not in a "I can't wait until next fall camp!" mode at all.

In fact I don't think I ever really processed the loss to UK.  I really just don't want to think about Dooley for awhile.

I'm so beyond over it.  I will watch, and keep up, but I refuse to allow my emotions to be influenced by UT Football.  If the powers that be can live with it, why shouldn't I?

I remember the good old days when I went into every football season wildly optimistic about our chances.   These days I am more excited about basketball and baseball.

They are leaving because the perception is Dooley is on the hot seat.

[Volznut]

Bad move. Anyone ever been to Lincoln Nebraska? Cold, barren wasteland.

On the part about being indifferent, I feel the same, but it's not all bad.

For my part, bammer won another NC, and since I live in bammer that is kind of a disaster.

But it's really given me perspective....seeing just how seriously some down here take it and what it seems to mean to their actual LIVES kind of makes the whole thing seem silly actually.

At the end of the day, it's just a game after all. 

I am a passionate fan and I do care deeply if the Vols win, but the reality is that it's not something that really amounts to shizzle in the real world at the end of the day.
