"Coach Martin has had a huge impact in all our lives"

most important quote right there.

do we think he gets any sort or raise or extension???

or does hart wait?

or does it just depend? if he makes sweet 16 does he, but if he makes nit he doesnt?

curious on everyones thoughts?

I brought this up earlier. Extend him for 4 more years, and a huge salary bump. He deserves it.

I'm loving it

Mcdonalds has been notified, and wil be suing.

Man should win coach of the year. Kentucky did what they were supposed to do. We did the completely unexpected. I thought eleventh was a little tough, I said maybe seven or eight. Second is beyond amazing.

Definitely not taking away from CCM but I dontthink people expected UK to run the table in the SEC.

I think he deserves to be the SEC Coach of the Year and probably a consideration for National Coach of the Year.

Maybe this is a little far, right?

I hate Calipari, but he deserves COY. Talent without coaching produces wins, but not championships. Calipari was able to make them play as a cohesive unit very, very quickly.
Saying that they were "supposed" to do this means you assumed that they were going to be 1 point away from perfection. With so many new players, the only way you can expect that is due to phenomenal coaching.
I feel sick.

Wait until the end of the season, then raise and extend. This could keep other teams from even thinking about calling. Like UCLA if Howland gets axed.

There is no doubt that Martin is a terrific bench coach. The key to him becoming a great coach is his recruiting. Can he replace the talent we are losing? I hope so and we will find out rather quickly. Getting Stokes was big, but we need to realize that we will need to replace him after next year. Recruiting classes for 2013 and 14 are critical. When he recruits well, we will win a lot of games.

Uh, no.

What a poor article... i disagreed with more than half of his "winners". whatever

 

[LynxVol]

Lol. Who hired Cuonzo?

 

[VolBeef88]

The media pundits who feign surprise that the Vols finished strong are either overlooking or forgetting the fact that UT’s schedule was front-loaded. No one should be surprised that the Vols’ winning percentage improved as the season progressed, especially since the addition, and maturation, of Stokes.

If you don't think Martin has done an outstanding job then your an idiot.
