I agree with you. I hope our fans would be classy enough to clap for him but who knows

Why would we treat him differently than any other opposing coach? He certainly didn't accomplish anything in his time on the Hill.

Youre right, he didnt accomplish anything, but dont you think it would just be cold to hammer him. I mean since we did fire him, i think the least we could do is give him a handclap when his name is annonced just to show that we have respect for him

My instinct would be to make some hand gestures, but clapping would not be one of them. He was a sanctimonious, self righteous imbecile. He got exactly what he deserved.

Agreed. There was no excuse for the way he went out. Had he taken it gracefully, I think the reaction might be a little different. Don't bash UT and expect me to feel sorry for you. Still I would hope the fans would show more class than he did.

I would be willing that Vol fans would give Buzz hell, especially the students. I'm not saying it's the right thing to do, but after some of the things Buzz said after he left, I wouldn't be surprised.

As far as if Buzz is cheering for the Vols or not, I'm sure he has mixed emotions. On the one hand those are his players that he recruited, but at the same time, the more success Bruce has, the worse Buzz looks.

If I were Buzz I would be bragging about my recruiting skills (just leave out the coaching part).

I am sure he is hoping Fulmer loses all his football games next year too

That's the truth, Buzz could bring in the recruits but just couldnt do anything with them

Hey guys, I'm from the Coastal board. I wasn't sure if you all have read this so I thought I'd post it. Buzz is pulling for you.

Peterson pulling for Vols in first round
Tennessee fired Buzz Peterson as men’s basketball coach at the end of last season, but that’s not stopping him from pulling for the Vols against Winthrop.

"I want to see my seniors do well, so I’m rooting for those guys hard,’’ said Peterson, who led Coastal Carolina to a 20-10 record, the school’s first winning season since 1993-94. "C.J. Watson is the first kid I recruited at UT.’’

Peterson will need to wait another year for another shot at taking the Chanticleers to the postseason. They weren’t invited to the NIT despite winning 14 of their last 16 games and finishing second in the Big South.

Had Coastal Carolina beat Winthrop in the Big South tournament championship game — they lost, 51-50, on a last-second shot — Peterson would have been in the NCAA tournament likely playing the Vols.

"I saw the bracket, and it showed me if we could hold on for 14 seconds, we’d have been playing Tennessee,’’ said Peterson, whose team has nine freshmen and beat Winthrop twice in the regular season. "Winthrop and Tennessee is an interesting match up. They’re totally opposite types of teams.’’

Not only is Buzz pulling for you, but 95% of Coastal is pulling for you because Winthrop's fans are downright jerks (punched a kid from Coastal after the conference final game) and their Coach is crazy. Even crazier than their coach is his wife. If you see a blonde woman in the stands going crazy for Winthrop, it's Marshall's wife. She's a psycho. Flat out crazy. Good luck to you guys, I hope you can hold this lead, if not make it bigger.
