We can't recruit a point guard and we can't recruit a running back. Corn Elder plays both is he really worse then what we have at pg now? I've never seen him so it's a serious question.

No. Why we haven't offered elder or Owootoah continues to amaze me. If watching this game from the sideline doesn't convince Martin he needs a ball handler nothing will.

I have seen him play BB several times and I didn't think he was a D1 player. That being said the guys we have can't be labeled as true D1 players either so I think he is at least equal to a bunch we have.

Pearl didnt have the chance to recruit a PG because he was fired the next day after our season ended.

Well he had the whole season to recruit a point guard and didn't. Tennessee has been hurting for a point guard since CJ Watson left. I love Bruce but he never had a true point guard that could handle the ball, shoot, stop the ball, and score the ball. Outside of watson and he didn't recruit him.

I agree. I didn't appreciate going to the NCAA 6 out of 6 years or making it to the Elite Eight.

I really hated that feeling when we beat Kansas in TBA and Memphis to get to #1. Or when we pounded Pitt his last year even. That sucked too.

Melvin Goins? He did everything except consistent scoring. Also, he was handicapped recruiting will all the stuff going on with the NCAA. If we were gonna fire him in the end, we shoulda done it day one

I'll take a Bobby Maze right about now, he was certainly light years better then anybody we have right now.

Ramar Smith could stop dribble penetration and get to the rim. Of course he went off the deep end his Soph year.

I agree. Corn could solve some football and basketball problems. He would definitely help on the football field and probably could help on the basketball court.

What is the deal with Corn Elder? I know we're not offering but who IS recruiting him and why aren't we offering?

I know this is one of the dumbest fan bases in America, but it had nothing to do with the BBQ. It was lying to the NCAA. It's not hard to comprehend.
