after Majors rebuilt the program with coaches AND recruits. Fulmer rode the wave for a while and the slowly rode the program into the ground. Recruiting fell of badly and, perhaps even more importantly, he couldn’t assemble a quality coaching staff, Cutcliff being the one exception. Chief was a mediocre, at best, DC and never made the most of his talent. LSU and then A&M found out the hard way that Chavis was not an adequate SEC DC. Where is he now, who knows. Majors had some of the best coachs in the country and won despite a constant flow to other jobs, yes some of which was Majors difficult personality. BUT, Majors didn’t stand for mediocrity and knew how to put together and maintain a winning program, i.e. Iowa State, Pitt and UT. Fulmet got 8-10 years out to the machine that Majors built and the wheels started coming off and he couldn’t fix it, period. We got beat by bad Arky teams in the heart of the best times of the 90‘s. Hell, Fulmer lost to Arkansas the NC year but for the freak fumble and BARELY beat Mississippi State in the SECC. You Fulmer sunshine pumpers ignore all of this, god knows why. Did you EVER wonder why no one came calling to hire an only 58 yo coach with a Natty on his resume’? Yeah, I didn’t think you did.
