Ok my "wise" friend do this for me, you are Mike Hamilton you have to find a new coach
You want a high profile coach, BUT you have to remember this
the coach actually wants to be here
He is not afraid at all of any possible sanctions
He is willing to deal with your idiocy (you were Mike Hamilton and called out Bruce Pearl before game)



Find me a coach



Meanwhile i have my coach and he can already start talking to our top recruits

I am the one that has the high opinion of Tennessee, we CAN hire anyone, but with a clown like Hamilton leading the charge we are doomed. Why do so many of you attack me yet accept Hamilton's low esteem of UT.

We weren't going to get a big name with looming NCAA sanctions, our job is good but it isn't THAT good.

UT HAD the 5th highest attendance in the nation.
Two 5th graders could have hired a high profile coach.
Everyone knows Hamilton is a mental midget and Cheek is proving with this hire he is a buffoon also.

I am done with Tennessee Basketball.

I know many people who beat cancer...doesn't mean they can beat Kentucky. Cancer isn't on the schedule this year, IIRC.

OP went a bit far, should def give the guy his fair shot, but also being worried isn't necessarily a bad thing, it showes you care too.

hamilton wanted to hire some coach who wouldn't try to upstage hamilton--very simple.

Obviously, you are a K-Y fan in disguise. Just look at the border trash rotgut in your avatar!

Get thee to Lynchburg and repent, sinner!

Ignore the flamers. You have a right to your opinion. This hire is much like the Dooley hire......both outstanding people with obvious integrity......Only time will tell if either can win enough to keep the hounds at bay. Like the old Dusty Springfield song "Hoping and Praying....."

P.S. Don't leave. It's the karma of all Vol fans to be long suffering.

I have an idea. Why don't we see how they do before bitc-ing about their pedigree?

UGA is addicted to pedigree, and all its gotten them is two dead mascots in two seasons.

How about we look at what the post was responding to and the smiley face at the end (it indicates a tongue in cheek tenor). And pedigrees are for dogs.

What an idiotic and classless statement. The mortality rate for non Hodgkin's lymphoma was less the 50% in the mid 90's. And I know many people who haven't survived it. Surviving cancer is definitely not a coaching prerequisite, but in my experience, the true character of a person is revealed through adversity. And by all indications Martin is a person who values first and foremost the gift of life and the opportunity to pass his life lessons on to the young men he coaches. Whether or not he wins at UT is up for debate, but the character and integrity this man possesses and will bring to my institution is not.

Oh great, the sympathy post, well played. You've known the man for 4 hours, why shouldn't you know everything about him?
