As I have said even before Martin was hired, we go back to mediocrity.

Blame that on Pearl. Not Martin.

Lists Vandy, UF, Duke, KY, Ohio St, and TN among schools he is still considering, but doesn't list a order.

He is till getting to know the staff, but noticed Martin sitting on his court this week. Staff seems "cool" so far.

He was a top 5 rebounder at the Peach Jam.

Yeah I've seen some video of this kid, and he seems really athletic. I hope we can land him. Thanks GoVols2003.

You nailed it on the head my friend from the North. Everyone currently accusing the UT Athletic Dept. and Coach Martin of sending us back to the cellar of the SEC should abruptly stop and recall the man who got us here. Do these people expect for a Jamie Dixon, a Rick Pitino, a Roy Williams to want to come to a school that is about to get hammered by the NCAA committee? Are these penalties and bad press the fault of Coach Martin or the higher-ups in the UTAD?

No. These are the faults of one Mr. Bruce Pearl, former coach. Had he of not possessed poor character and decision making in his meetings with the NCAA, these same fans would be talking instead of how far this year's team would be going in the NCAA tournament, not about things such as mediocrity and black curtains.

So please, enough with the outrage over the hire of a stand-up guy with a good head on his shoulders and a clipboard under his arm. Only time will tell if he will succeed, but to even want to take on a challenge like the one he will face next season takes a great deal of courage. So I applaud you Coach Martin.
