Phillip Fulmer, who a decade ago brought Tennessee its first national championship in 47 years, will not return as the Volunteers' coach next year.
An announcement is being planned for later Monday at Neyland Stadium. Fulmer, who has won 150 games at his alma mater and is the dean of SEC coaches, met with Tennessee officials Monday morning, and they reached a mutual agreement that it would be best for all parties if Fulmer did not return next season.
The sides also agreed that Fulmer would coach the remainder of the 2008 season.
The Vols (3-6, 1-5 SEC) have lost four straight games and are in danger of posting their second losing season in the last four years.

Fulmer out, that is too bad and a shame. Big time sports is ALWAYS going to be, " what have you done for me lately ". Vol fans, there is no guarantee Fulmer's replacement will be any better than what you have now. Florida's post Spurrier and Bama's long dry spell resulted in a coaching merry go around with much weeping and gnashing of teeth before Urban Meyer and Nick Sabin settled in and began winning. But, I am sure Fulmer's firing is good sauve for frustrated fans and will make many feel better and give hope that better days are ahead.
I hated to hear the news. I think he ran a clean program and is a great man, as a person. I am from Michigan and a Michigan fan, be careful what you wish for.
The GATOR program has progressed at each "changing of the guard".
You'll be fine.
We look forward to your comeback

Dennis,
We can't find you...please, please give me my money back. i am destitute.
Hi Dennis, the echo is pretty loud in here! Just me and some interested parties I guess. 8*)
Hopefully you're not actually crazy enough to be checking in on your blog...things being what they are.
In any event, you taught me how to fish so I say Thanks to you for that.
Be safe out there...
