It doesn't make a bit of difference who comes and goes if Holly is still here. She is the constant.

People like to beat up on the players. But when you aren't instructed and drilled properly it is too much to overcome on the basis of athletic ability alone.

Butch Jones was a master at putting his guys in position to lose, but Holly is better.

Throw a zone at us and we are done. She had had years to figure out how to run an offense. It is beyond her.

I agree CHW is definitely the problem. None of her players seems to improve, she is a terrible head coach.

It is not the players, even they recognize that she doesn't know what she is doing.

Congrats to Mercedes Russell on a great career. She was constantly trashed on this board but is now 2nd all time in program history for double-doubles.

Ends her career with a 21 points, 14 rebound, 4 steal game.

Rough final game for Jaime but I'm so happy she was a Lady Vol. Hoping that the Liberty draft her in late 1st round so I can cheer for her in person this summer!

As of right now, we have 49 points on 66 shots from the field. That is horribly inefficient offense.

As i said many times before Holly and her staff worst mistake was not getting Westbrook and Hayes to just work on shooting 3`s over the summer. If you think of some of the pg that played for Pat what would they do shoot the ball.

Yeah, yeah, yeah all this talent was just overrated, Holly has done a wonderful job, etc., wake up and smell the terrible truth. Holly is terrible.

I've never been a Holly fan. She's nothing but an assistant and never has been. But our little 5* princesses can't shoot FTs, defend or control the ball and they don't like criticism. They get their butts kicked by grittier teams and smile about it, so they're part of the problem. It's an all-around fail.

Is there ANY DOUBT? Been saying it's coaching for three years now. Not that I'm a genius, but give me break. Does Fulmer not see the problem?

Andy Landers said it today at half time, without saying it. BAD COACHING! He said how to score against the 2-3 in the second quarter, yet it was not getting done.

Wasn't it Russell who stayed another year because she said there was a bad taste in her mouth for last season?
Does your mouth feel fresh now?!

I refuse to watch another LV game until Holly is GONE! Put Landers in charge! Or ANYONE!

Another record down the toilet. Is the program next?

Remember at the beginning of the year when announcers said this team was so good they could make a final four run?

They played that good in the beginning! I don't know what happened to them, they looked solid and focused at the start.

Another in a long line of negative “firsts” under Warlick.

Gut check time for Fulmer. Does he have the courage to do the right thing and fire his longtime friend?

Under normal circumstances, I’d say no. But if she’s seriously coming at him wanting a raise and extension, he needs to put his foot down and laugh her out of his office.
