This says otherwise. "Over 36,000 of us signed a petition to oust you in favor of a former coach."

No agenda here at all. Just wondering why everyone is so hell bent on belaboring the past at someone’s expense who doesn’t even work at UT anymore.Isn't it comical to see folks spin history to fit their agendas?
Petition was the BBB, if it was open. Why is that so hard for these guys to understand?
Coach Martin was already planning his Exodus out of Knoxville anyways, just no one knew it. Tucked his tail , took advantage of TNs resources, and left.
Hehzzz … not sure how much stirring would have been required! That pot seemed to be simmering just fine…No agenda here at all. Just wondering why everyone is so hell bent on belaboring the past at someone’s expense who doesn’t even work at UT anymore.
At any rate, good discussion, pot has been stirred and my work here is done….
Here’s a recap. Had a game against Missouri Tuesday night. Cuonzo is their current coach. Op started a thread. Random mouth breather called a slew of people racist. Then a back and forth started as to what really occurred during his exit since Cuonzo cried racism while using UT resources to get the Cal job. I just don’t care for phonies or lying pos that carry water for them. So I tend to press people who try to be dishonest and rewrite historyNo agenda here at all.

Exactly. At the time of the petition we were headed to our third straight NIT after 6 straight NCAA Tournaments under Pearl. Pissed fans are always the end result of something like that. Of course the team went on a run and made the Tournament. Had he not made his cowardly exit and decided to build off of that then you never know. It looks like we dodged a bullet not having to extend him in hindsight because he hasn't been good anywhere else.Fans wanted Bruce Pearl back cause Martin was simply underachieving.
Racism was never a factor in his departure. In fact, it was probably an excuse for leaving in the first place.
He couldn’t handle the heat and bailed out.
