I'm officially done with BB this year. Now I have Saturday free and no excuse to avoid yard work. Yay.

Exactly how I feel. Bring on Spring, outside stuff like golfing, mowing, friends over for cookouts, and still got football and the orange and white game to go. But I am done with BB.

Me to. Would have been so sweet to get that come back and go to the elite 8 for the first time. Hate that we watched Schofield for the last time last night and the way they last burns me up.

Just like CJP, CRB is building a program the right way. Enjoy the journey. The final outcome is the same problem with all team sports - officials can literally change it. Some people can call games objectively, some cannot. The later are generally the first to be upset if they are called out for it. The former will acknowledge their mistakes and make improvements.

For there to ever be more consistent officiating it has to become organized applying the same rules and emphasis with centralized governance. It is the opposite of that now. Officials are individually contracted, most to multiple conferences, who each have their points of emphasis. The officials develop ties and allegiances since they depend on them for their incomes. CBB is the worst of all.

Hell of year boys! you fought valiantly. I don’t care what anyone says this was one of the funnest seasons of basketball I’ve watched.

This team gave everything and I appreciate their representation of the power T.

Especially since we have been so bad at football, this b-ball team was something special and will be remembered for a long time.

Go Vols!

We will get screwed by the refs on Thursday in a pivotal moment as well.

:(

Still didn't imagine it would be THAT pivotal of a moment/call, though. It sucks to know that we will never get the benefit of the doubt. Refs could have sent us bowling vs Vandy in 2013 and decided not to. Almost every other reputable program out there gets those calls but we never do.

What I heard on Burns was a while back and the thought of Grant or Bone going pro hadn't entered my mind so I didn't ask about them. I'll be seeing the guy here soon and I'll ask him.

I just realized refs ALSO screwed us on the 1.7 toss in timeout.

Clock started before Grant caught the ball and the refs couldn't hear the whistle so we were given 0.1
