Alabama post game report

while that is true, it was our biggest game and Golden was laying a rotten egg....I think he should've....but in the end it may have ended up with the same result...Alabama wanted it more.....sometimes Heart and desire trump talent....esp in BBall

This'll be the last thing I say, because I respect you and don't want to get into a heated argument or anything like that. You haven't attacked anyone so there's no reason for it.

But Alabama didn't want it more than we did. They just played better. There is a difference.
 
I gotta disagree with you, because it is the most important game and there was a lot on the line. It should have happened several games back , makes me sick looking at our point guard driving with his head down he ain't passing to anyone . CCM should have been trying harder to prepare another PG
I see your point and I respect it. Truly.

But that's just not something you can do in arguably your biggest, most important game of the year. You might try that midseason, but you aren't taking out your best guys to 'send a message' in must-win games like the one today. You have to roll with what you know gives you the best chance. And that's Golden.

I respect that.....yeah there is no reason to attack anyone...we just have differing opinions....it happens....not everyone will like the same thing....you may like Coke and I like Pepsi....doesn't mean I don't like ya....I think you have no taste and are a follower but I don't hate ya :)....jk

What other PG? Lopez? To quote Chad Ochocinco: "Child, please."

Hahaha yes indeed. Agreed on all counts, friend.

Wait... Do you prefer Pepsi? I prefer Pepsi!!! I've been called crazy for it but I think it's better!! Hahaha. :)
 
I will still buy my UT gear and watch games and be a huge freaking fan....so bc I criticize a coach then I am not a fan? that is ludicrous....I proudly wear my orange all yr and cheer for every UT sport....

comparing what CCM has to what IU had to come back from is laughable and shows your BBall IQ is not very high....IU was decimated with only something like 4 or 5 scholly players left when Crean took over....nowhere near the same....Crean had also taken a team to the NCAA Tourney before also....

Yeah your right might as well just fire him.
 
Vols need a for real point guard. Have for a long time. Pearl's gone for trying TOO hard to get one. Golden would tell you himself he's not a natural PT. He does the best he can but when he's matched up with a real PT like Releford (sp?) Vols have a bad day. In order to run the O Martin wants Golden has to breakdown the opposing PT and get the ball in the paint. Just couldn't get it done often enough.

Couldn't hit a shot today. Players not doing what they've been coached to do. We know they've been coached well because they play so well so often. Just not focused today, it seemed like.

I do not agree with your assertion that UT is a well coached basketball team. Their record this season would say otherwise.

In what world did winning 20 games become a colossal failure. I'm not championing CCMs every move by any stretch, but he improved the team's record from year 1 to year 2, and people still want to throw the baby out with the bathwater after two seasons. Too many people lack patience and are starved for instant gratification as if they're entitled to it.

This is the real problem.

Considering we didn't have probably our best player this year, I'd say 20 wins isn't anything to sneeze at. The fact we even have a shot at an NCAAT bid tells me Martins doesn't exactly suck.

And add in we didn't have Maymon.
