A month ago, I would have said there was no way in hell do we get into the dance, going as far to think that he should be on the next Allied Van moving truck out of town. It is nice to be proven wrong every once in a while. Go Big Orange!
Like most, I still have doubts about Martin, but I'm still thrilled. They finally started running the offense through the bigs. Michigan is a different animal, though.
I like Cuonzo as a man like most of us here. Coaching questions aside, he's getting the job done when it counts. Congrats to him and his team. I'm happy for him.
What can I say? I was already looking for another coach at the end of January. I love being wrong. GBO
I told my wife that it's just nice to have something to be happy about (related to UT sports). They are playing with a passion. And Richardson... that man has been eating his Wheaties or something.
I'm enjoying the ride. Will ask questions later, been too long since I've gotten one of these from UT.
Listen. I get the fact that he's underachieved, that we've been fortunate, and that this comes as a surprise to mostly everybody. But I've always had the feeling that fully healthy, this was a team built for tournament time. We can doa lot worse than Martin, and that most likely means we will.
Yep. We've been critical and for good reason. But right now he deserves the praise along with the rest of the staff and players. Martin is easy to pull for personally I hope he's able to keep going forward with the results.
Nothing to complain about at the moment. He's doing what he needs to do. Let's hope he can keep it rolling.
I guess I am confused. Why is the national media criticizing Vol fans for holding their coach accountable? Aren't all coaches in major sports at major universities held accountable? Wouldn't Coach Martin agree that his team underperformed earlier this year? And haven't the players said they are playing harder for Coach Martin because of the criticism? Why should it take this kind of criticism and why would a coach be so offended? I am thrilled with the team's performance as of late! But I do hope that in the next game the announcers drop the comments about real Vol fans. All of us suffer when we lose and all of us celebrate when we win! Let's just talk basketball and let's just play basketball!
Well I have a hard time seeing that unless he starts recruiting at a higher level. A much higher level. Otherwise LSU, arkansas, USCjr, Auburn and UGA, Missouri will pass us up.
