UT fans are not stupid. Coming into this season, if we had some transfers and a lot of freshmen, we would understand the struggles.
However, we were ranked preseason No. 3. We have Russell, DD, and talented frosh and sophomores. We have slipped out of the Top 25 coaches poll. Someone may need to check, but it appears this is unprecedented.
We have the talent. What we don't have is the coaching. We need a change and fast. The longer this continues, the harder it will be for the program to become relevant again.
For people who blindly follow Holly, what will it take for you to believe we need a new coach? Will we have to be ousted in the first round, fail to make the tournament, finish outside of Top 25 rankings, bottom of SEC? Just curious.
With any job, you have goals. If you consistently fail to meet those performance goals, you are fired. The performance goal at UT is Final Fours. Get it?
