Tennessee made an interesting choice to for the school’s 22nd head coach. Derek Dooley, the son of legendary Georgia coach Vince Dooley, grew up around the SEC and also had quite a good run at LSU under Nick Saban. The news Vols boss has been the head coach at Louisiana Tech for the last three years, and he is now back in America’s toughest conference.
The Dooley hiring happened very quickly as Tennessee had to fill the vacancy left by Lane Kiffin just weeks before National Signing Day. As far as the much-maligned Kiffin, we wrote last week that he did a solid job in the coaching and recruiting part of the job. However, the new USC coach never embraced Southern football or what it means to be a coach in the SEC. Kiffin seemed to ignore the traditions of a proud program like Tennessee, instead trying to turn the Vols into “USC East”.
Embracing the culture of the SEC and Tennessee will obviously not be an issue for Dooley. As far as the football side of things, he will have a lot to prove in putting together a solid staff and trying to salvage the Vols’ recruiting class. Dooley’s training under Saban (five years at LSU and two with the Dolphins), plus his head coaching experience should serve him well.
Some in the media will criticize his 17-20 record at Louisiana Tech, but his resume looks very similar to that of Gene Chizik’s. The Auburn coach was met with much skepticism a year ago after going 5-19 at Iowa State, but Tiger fans were thrilled to be playing in a New Year’s Day bowl in January.
Derek Dooley looks like a quality hire in Knoxville. The Vols will probably struggle in his first season because of massive personnel losses, but Dooley will build a solid foundation for a winning program. He will also understand what it means to be an SEC head coach, something that should please Tennessee fans immensely.

THE GHOST HAS ATTAINED the southernmost point of the arc she is describing across the Pacific, and is already beginning to edge away to the west and north toward some lone island, it is rumored, where she will fill her water-casks before proceeding to the season's hunt along the coastugg boots clearance of Japan. The hunters have experimented and practiced with their rifles and shotguns till they are satisfied, and the boat-pullers and steerers have made their sprit-sails, bound the oars and rowlocks in leather and sennit so that they will make no noise when creeping on the seals, and put their boats in ugg boots clearanceapple-pie order, to use Leach's homely phrase.His arm, by the way, has healed nicely, though the scar will remain all his life. Thomas Mugridge lives in mortal fear of him, and is afraid to venture on deck after dark. There are two or three standing quarrels in the forecastle. Louis tells me that the gossip of the sailors finds its way aft, and that two of the telltales have been badly beaten by their mates. He shakes his head dubiously over the outlook for the man Johnson, who is boat-puller in the same boat with him. Johnson has been guilty of speaking his mind too freely, and has collided two orugg boots clearance three times with Wolf Larsen over the pronunciation of his name. Johansen he thrashed on the amidships deck the other night, since which time the mate has called him by his proper name. But of course it is out of the ugg boots clearancequestion that Johnson should thrash Wolf Larsen.
