Odds are Dooley won't be around for too much longer is he keeps losing to UK. You commit to UT, who knows who you will be playing for? And they're rebuilding. Even if Dan leaves MSU, we will at least be in good shape for whomever takes over. And it looks like Dan is committed to us for now.
UT will be back and be good in a few years- probably even ahead of MSU- but not right now.
