Maybe he can take a few lessons from Master Pearl before he leaves Knoxville. Unreal. The last two losses felt like a PS3 game when you set the controller down to grab a beer, and the other team keeps on playing. MTSU and Ole Miss just ROLLED RIGHT OVER UT in the 2nd half. Outplayed and outcoached.

Just....move on. Pearl is gone dude. I'm guessing your that guy who posts emo statuses on Facebook for about six months after your girlfriend dumbs you.:cray:

Apparently you have a short memory, Pearl routinely would not call timeouts during bad stretches because he wanted the team to play through them.

Sure .. Its CCM's fault that no one will step up and put the ball in the basket .. Too many games this year just like this one .. Thats why they were in the NIT in the first place ... GO VOLS !!!!!!!

Pearl was more averse to using timeouts than any coach I remember. Thread failed.

I haven't been dumbed in my life, i hate Facebook, and I'm married. Forget Pearl? I moved on from Pearl when he did what he did.

But, i watched all Pearl's games with ut, and he consistently called timeouts or took a T at the right point during games. The person who said Bruce let teams play thru it is full of ****. He only did that with Lofton's Sr. Squad and Tyler/J.P.'s squad...they had the kind of talent
that could play through bad runs.

Look what Kermit did tonight. Took a technical to fire up his squad. It worked, too.

Anyone defending CCM's lack of emotion, or his inability to adjust to opponent runs is blindly loyal a la the early Dool-Aid drinkers.

I love what CCM did with this team this year, and will support him and the vols next year. However, he hasn't shown me a lot with his lack of timely TO calls and his inability to adjust down the stretch.

CCM did a great job this year and he took the time out to close the season. It was time to work hard. Enough accomplished. Winning the NIT would have proved what we already know. Times are changing and this team will be at a higher level next year.

They over achieved and did well.

Dudes - correct Pearl is gone - long gone - but that still doesn't negate the awful execution and the fact that we got outplayed and without question out coached by a Sun Belt team.

Hat's off to MTSU - who survived some adversity with their best player sitting. At the end of the game they went to the player they recognized as a little of a mismatch and it worked. We went away from the two inside guys that are almost always unstoppable and who foul out most people who try. I would call this very good coaching on the part of A. MTSU and very questionable coaching on the part of B. Our Vols. Maymon and Stokes did appear winded a lot but still that is where I would have taken my chances in the second half instead of our hapless guards shooting. Ole Miss all over again.

They just sleep walked through that last 7 minutes. Golden either was dead tired or just not very interested in defending. McBee might as well been McBrick. They need a better point guard and someone that can hit that open 3 next year. This team was way too offensively challenged to go deep in any tournament. They still did more than i expected. There was a time i didn't think they'd finish above 500.

They sleep the entire game.
