Reporting it on knoxville by sports radio, jimmy hymes.

Dooley is current head coach and AD at La. Tech. He is a Saban pupil. He may be a good hire but a bit of a gamble if this turns out to be true. Still no confirmation from UT.

He is the son of former Georgia coach Vince Dooley.

ESPN is reporting it now, so it's legit but the details are not completed and need to be hammered out before it's official.

He's 17-20 over last 3 years. Hmmmm.

Yes, but he is Vince Dooley's son. [Wink]

We may have a chance to beat UT sometime soon if
it takes him awile to get things going.

Bayer, one other side bar about the talents of Dooley, he is a bonafide lawyer and will help all the wayward athletes which should probably get him more money that what he his contract calls for...

Hopefully we can out recruit Tennessee in the future and get to the point where we can start beating them on a regular basis.
