Jesus Christ, how how bad was it? Saw the score, did not watch it, nor do I plan on watching highlights..

Go get Shaka, we are bringing in some good players. All the kids know him, and he loves to coach. Actually has a pulse on the side lines. I just can't get over the talent we have and are bringing in and we struggle to score 60 points. The offense is so boring and burnt garbage. He would have this team undefeated right now.

that's the problem - guaranteed contract. There is ZERO incentive for him to win. CCM gets paid the same whether they win by 20 or lose by 20. you've got to have a coach that lives and breathes basketball. someone with some passion and pride. I really wish there was a way to only pay your coach when they win. then you'd see some serious @ss chewing after a missed layup or a missed free throw.

Shaka turned down Illinois, I doubt he'd take the job. I wish though! Another wish would be getting Buzz Williams.

I can't express how embarrassed I am to display my Tennessee orange after last nights joke of a basketball game. Down by 5 with 6 minutes left, Stokes shoots a 20 footer that hits all backboard and then NC state finishes through 2 people with a dunk to swing momentum. This coach is one of the worst I have EVER seen! He is absolutely NO idea how to coach basketball. Tennessee never went out and hired a coach after Pearl and instead settled for the loser we have today. You get what you pay for! I am not sure if Dave Hart has the balls to fire him but if not, FIRE Dave Hart. Tennessee is too big of a program to compete this poorly. I live and breath Tennessee Orange but the basketball program get worse and worse by the day!!! Why hire Butch Jones to bring your program back to life when you have Martin who brings it way down?! Building a program doesn't mean that you are good in one sport and bad in all the rest. Can someone explain to me why Martin has not been fired and at what point does someone step in a turn this program around?!

If Martin is as blasé & boring with the players as he is with the media I can see why our team comes out yawning & never wakes up during the game. I can't even listen to his interviews. There's laid back & then there's Cuonzo!

I live in the heart of BBN and I'm never embarrassed to wear my orange. I'm embarrassed of our coach but not of the Orange, win or lose!

The more I think about it if CCM would have a presser and apologize to the fan base for such an embarrassing game last night I think it would go far in at least letting us know where he stands and how he feels about this type of play. I don't like criticizes just for the sake of it but I must say that game was without a doubt the worst I have witnessed in a long time....and NO ONE with maybe the exception of JM can feel good about the effort last night. And I feel the same about CCM...IT MAY NOT BE YOUR PERSONALITLY TO GET FIRED UP, HOLLER AND SCREAM AND WORK THE OFFICALS...but guess what...you might want to start because what you're doing IS NOT WORKING...

I can't keep up all that well with what's going on in Knoxville, being I live three hundred miles away. Is Bruce still in town? If he is, he's going to be eligible to coach again, and that'd include UT, too. Wouldn't it? If he IS still in town, then there's got to be a reason. I've also supported Cuonzo from the get-go, but I did the same with Kiffin and Dooley (up to the point of obvious insanity) so I'm one of those unabashed Big Orange optimists. 'Guilty and not ashamed. If we can get him, we need Bruce back. GBO! :mf_surrender:

I agree w/everything you just said & supported them like you. I don't see why we can't get Bruce back...like I said earlier, he'll coach somewhere...may as well be Tennessee!

I really don't follow basketball much. But I've never liked CCM's style so I went from watching 10 games or so a year to 3-5. Tried to get on board again this year, but we're underachieving and it goes back to coaching. If we want the program to improve, we need to can CCM now.
