W/K/R --- Question about Dooley

  • Has he given any interviews or is this something you are working on? Probably wouldn't be too revealing but I think some of us would be interested in what he has to say.
    I would also like to hear your perspective regarding his tenure.

  • I don't think we will hear anymore than what his statement was when he gave the press release. He said a little bit on the last Derek Dooley show if you can catch it on re-run. You could tell before Hart told us he fired him that morning. He wasn't wearing any orange and you could just tell he was broken. I really hope he gets back on his feet somewhere and has gets over the hump as a coach. He almost broke through this year. If the Florida came ended with a W, I believe he would still be here. I would like to hear a little more from him as well.

  • Ryan,
    Maybe your opinion is not the correct term...I mean what do most people in the know think? For example, Is the general opinion among those who matter that he did a solid job building the program from where they were but due to losses Hart had to make a change OR is it that he didn't do much to improve the program and the job hasn't improved from 3 years ago?

    Personally, I think that Dooley came into a mess. I heard that there was only one non-senior offensive lineman on the team when he walked in the door.
