I'm sure that Blackburn is qualified to be a fine administrator. But the AD must also be a great political and able to bring good will for the team nation wide. Fulmer was a good coach and player at one time. He is the one with the big name recognition. He brings excitement to the job. He can raise money in a big time fashion. He will focus on winning football. Until this year I had never heard of Blackburn and I have been a season ticket holder since the mid 60's. He does not seem to be well known outside the small Knoxville base. Fulmer can hit the ground running and his name can help in recruiting. Hire him today.
