They want $340 million for Neyland Stadium renovations, and they want to hire Dorene? I can see some serious backlash.

That sounds to me like it really could have been chancellor refusing to sign off

Off the top of my head (in no order) Leach, Miles, Norvell, Sumlin, Steele, Morris, Martin, Venables, and even Kiffin would be better hires than Dorene. I hope Dorene is just another false rumor.

i kind of feel like there's no real reason you can't compete for a division title, especially given how awful that division has been for the better part of his time there

like, its in a good recruiting area, they have plenty of money (though obvs not their focus)

Yeah, I'd say Fedora has been underwhelming, too. He's had a couple good seasons but they could've capitalized more.
