I don't think we realized at the time

Trae was 0-10, 0 pts, 2 assts in a GT loss tonight. GT will go to the CIT

Live in ATL, and TG is very well regarded here ... FWIW.

How big of a loss Trae Golden was. Although he wasn't the best on defense, he was a decent scorer and passer, and really helped our offense flow better. He played his best ball during our strong runs to close the first 2 years. This year, lack of consistent point guard play has contributed majorly to the disappointing season.

Edit: this isn't an excuse for CCM's subpar coaching job this season. Just offering another idea to explain some of our inexplicable struggles this year.

GT doesn't have stokes, maymon, richardson or McCrae. Trae is the best player on a horrible team.

If Pearl wasn't realistic, Pitino would be my guy. He knows the SEC being with Donovan, and even with limited head coaching experience, I think he could excel in the mediocre conference.

You mean the UT Athletic Dept. should hire the son of a great coach even though he has limited experience but does have the benefit of having worked as an assistant under one of the best coaches in college in his favor? That is pure genius...It makes one wonder why our brain trust hasn't thought of this before. :dunno:

He's from ATL, so that would make sense.

Throw in the well groomed hair and this becomes a no brainer.

TrAe could have a game like this, then go for 20 the next night.

That's called inconsistency which the OP claims is what we have now and Golden would somehow cure that. lol! Ok. Heck if we're going to yearn for PG's past, I'd like to have CJ back. But I think this Austin kid coming in will be good.
