TyroneDawg Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Have you guys seen this? I hate the Vols but even I wouldn't quite go that far lol. I am a history major and I get the comparison he was trying to make but is that really the kind of imagery you want to have associated with your program? http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=5726924 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuyDawg Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I saw the presser myself. Everybody at UT is laughing this off and praising Dooley for his "sense of humor." I honestly don't care why he would make statements like this.Go UT Nazis. Nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtcrews75 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Yep this is really a non-story. I would expect dooley to choose his words a little more carefully with his law degree and everything. It is never a good to be compared to nazis in any manner I would assume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GATX Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 (edited) Not a big deal if you examine context: Media will create some headlines to generate some web hits, then we move on.This will be blown completely out of portion in 3...2...1....

Lennon Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 (edited) This isn't that big of a deal, but come on Dooley! don't give them any more reasons to ridicule you..Also, that description was really strange.

Unknøwn Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I agree this isnt a big deal at all I have no problem with the comparisons he made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Falcon Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 The man sure can put on a press conference though, that cracks me up every time I see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SacFalcFan Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 The reporters were morons for laughing at his comparisons to the nazis, but it's the tennessee media that's not surprising. That was just stupid to even say that. No it shouldn't be blown up, but it shows he needs to smarten up and be a bit more careful in his comments. It just gives his detractors more ammo to say he is over his head and can't handle something as simple as a press conference without putting his foot in his mouth.Derek is under fire for the 2-5 start and if it was up to the majority of fans he wouldn't be here next season. I think that's ridiculous they need to give him a few more years, but a lot of the vol fans aren't patient. A side note volunteer fan i got to see christian harris again in person. He is a great kid and very good prospect. You will love him in orange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefenseWinzCliche Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 My favorite part of it was "I don't want the German people to get upset at me," he said. "I'm not attacking them, but that's what happened..."Shouldnt he have said "I don't want the tiny pocket of Nazi sympathizers left in Germany to get upset at me." ?
