Is Crompton already the most hated athlete in UT sports history?

Wow, this is a great question that demonstrates how rapidly Crompton has fallen. From many UT fans calling for him to replace Erik Ainge last season to now, after only four starts, to many UT fans hating him. I think this is indicative of how the internet has made everything move faster, including fan hate. Of course Crompton hasn’t endeared himself to fans with his media responses after losses. The haters can keep doubting him after UCLA. Okay, they did. We were a few plays away against Florida. Okay, again. To worst of all, after the Auburn game professing that he wasn’t sure how he performed that he’d have to look at the tape. Right. As a general rule, I’m going to say that if you go 8-23 for 67 yards, don’t complete a pass in the entire fourth quarter, and lose a football game that you don’t need to check the film out to see how you played.
