I missed all but the last 2 minutes. I'm sure CCM didn't do his best work, but in the last 30 seconds having a senior turn it over in the backcourt and then another senior yak two FTs didn't exactly help matters.

Yeah, unfortunately the worst coaching of the game and important missed free throws came at the same time tonight. IIRC, we finished the game with all but one of our timeouts. Should have used at least a couple around the 6 minute mark, and obviously for the last 4.4 seconds.

We know we still have a chance. We just have no confidence in us making it with this pathetic coaching staff. That's what it comes down to. There's no excuse for a college head coach to make such a huge game management error in such a critical moment of a game. 4 seconds left, 4 timeouts, call a timeout and set up a play to win the game. Anyone who knows a lick about basketball would have called a timeout. It's pathetic.

Cuonzo doesn't even know what a timeout is . He finished the game with 4 timeouts left and the only one he used was right before the end of the first half ( that can't be carried over to the 2nd half) I think we can all agree he is a bozo of a coach and will not be here next season.

Just pity the coach who has to coach the returning talent (whether it's CM or someone else) next year.

Season over. Fire Cuonzo. We won't win another game all season. No team with 5 losses has ever made the tournament.

Man. Come on.

Why do you feel the need to attempt to make fun of people that have LEGIT reasons to be mad about this game? This season has been extremely disappointing. You think we win out and get into the tourney with 5 losses?

You are delusional if you can't see why people are pissed.

Oh yeah, big bad Chris4Vols is trolling everyone lol. Cmon Freak, I can express that people are overreacting and sarcastically imply my opinion that the season isn't down the tube.

I'm not trying to pick on you, honest. Sure you can express that opinion. But why not just say that? The back and forth sarcasm in this forum drives me nuts.

Just expressing my opinion.

Hey! I think you all need to back off of Chris. I've met him in real life and he is a good man, and a real Vol Fan. He is probably just tired of the Chicken Littles that reside around these parts.

And people don't have the right/entitlement to not want to jump off a damn bridge?

I think that's a double negative, but if I understand you, people can certainly jump or not jump off the bridge. I don't care which side folks are on. I was just hoping to understand the point amid the thick sarcasm.

Barton on if #Vols had a play after the 3-pointer went in: "There was nothing set up. I didn't even know how much time was left."

Terrible.

I wasn't trying to imply that tonight's loss wasn't bad, or that we shouldn't have more wins than we do. I'm just saying I think people who are seriously saying we should fire Martin right now, or that there's no way we make the tourney are overreacting. We're 10-5, not 7-8. It's pretty ridiculous to write off the season or Martin at this point, though Martin was definitely in better shape before the season started compared to now.

Ha! How nice of you to defend my honor lol.

Yeah I just don't see this season as a disaster at this point, and I'm not dismissing Martin yet. He's probably going to be the coach next season no matter what, so I see it being more fun and productive to cheer on the team and hope for the best. Next season will be interesting. If Martin really is as bad as some people think, it will definitely show next season.

I don't know what to tell you. Never thought that the one weakness of VN's OG is sarcasm :).

I actually thot it was a great title. Its funny to watch the irrational mood swings on here. Kinda like marriage, but you can log off at any time and the lawyers don't get involved.
