and 30 point losses to Michigan in the first round. Good times, good times.
Don't be a jerk we went the elite 8 for the first time ever the year before. I am not defending pearl or what he did but don't be stupid. If the only thing you remember for the past 6 years is a blowout then you are a what have You done for me lately fan.
Which is exactly why I watched the good old days of Peterson coaching, right? I must be a "Johnny come lately"
For every big win, it seems like we had a matching big loss under Pearl.
I would say we had more big wins than big losses imo. Most bad losses came this year, with the previous 5 years filled with some huge wins

No coach in UT history came close to Pearls accomplishments and while I hope Martin will change that my experience has been that UT has not been very successful in hireing BB coaches. I believe they made a big mistake in letting a proven winner go. Twenty or more wins every year of his career except two. Six straight NCAA tournaments, going 16 one year and 8 one year. Again no other coach has come close. I hope Martin does better, but the odds are very high that he will be a wash out.

I have noticed that when people on this forum are unable to refute an argument with facts, they resort to name calling and insults. Frankly that is the mark of a 3rd class intellect. Coach Fox used to say that obscenities are the result of a weak mind trying to express itself forcefully. He probably was correct.
