Was Dave Hart’s tenure at Tennessee a success? Ask me in about five months.
Let the many debates about Hart’s actions as Tennessee’s athletic director wage on now that he has announced his retirement. There’s the Lady Vols’ logo issue, the improvement in UT’s financial standing and many more issues that can be viewed as pros or cons, depending on one’s point of view.
But Hart will be remembered by what the Vols do this season on the football field. If the Vols at least make the SEC championship game by winning the East Division, Hart was a success.
