Tennessee vs. Miss State SEC Championship Game

[utvolpj]

What else can you mean? Ya we lost, but hey we are going to the tournament again, and we may lose the first round. But when was the last time that we knew every year that we are going to be going to the tournament? We won the east!!!!!! This is Tennessee basketball we are talking about here, not Duke or North Carolina! We have had some of the best teams in the history of our basketball team under BP, talk about fair weather fans.

so a fair weather fan is one who admits there was an issue and it had to do with coaching? CBP has done good things in his time but his teams follow a very disturbing pattern (and we saw it in all its glory today).

it would be nice to be on the ncaa selection committee. you know all they do is sit around drinking beer and watch basketball all day during the season. when it comes down to make the selections all they do is call up joe lunardi to shoot them a fax.

We won the east!!!!!!

I can't wait for that tee shirt. We won the East the year the SEC was just God awful. Success. Having said that, I kind of agree with your other points. Pearl is a decent coach. I just don't think he's that coach that's ever going to get us a NC.

I'm not trying to be picky but...it's the SEC Tournament Championship. LSU is the SEC Champion.

Semantics...

I think it was vertical

LOL, it was a bad attempt at a joke.

 

[emainvol]

Ok, lets invite buzz back......:no:

because we all know that Buzz Peterson is the only other coach we could possibly hire.

If you can't come up with something better than that, then perhaps you should refrain from making a fool of yourself.

We won the east because it was a weak year. Hello, Florida and Kentucky are going NIT dancing and South Carolina was our competition. We should have owned the SEC this year, we did not. Poor play calling and poor team play. Letting the team throw, yes throw because a shot has a better rebound, 3's all year bit us. One and done, that's about it.

 

[smowkee]

we need a starting white player....yea i said it

I guess you have a rebel flag in the front yard too?

Hey, you may accept mediocrity for 2 mil a year, but that doesn't mean that we have to.

i can't wait till April 18th

 

[Voldaddy]

Oh, and we didn't win the east. We choked to a bad Bama team at home, so we are co-winner's of the east.

lol, ok. Have it your way, fire bruce pearl and see what happens to our basketball team. Tennessee is not a place were coaches are begging to come, you are delusional if you really think that

nah...sure don't. do you?

 

[Voldaddy]

I don't think anyone is saying far Bruce, simply questioning some of the strategy late in the game.

Yeah, because good coaches won't come to UT for 2 mil. Who's delusional?

I didn't say fire him, but I wouldn't shed a damn tear.

 

[TennesseeJet]

HS coaches would come for a 10th of that and their teams can hit freethrows.

 

[MemphisVol]

I think we need to all calm down and focus on what's important for the team after today- getting this thread up to 100 pages

UT has shown it is committed to bball now that Dickey is gone. They are also willing and able to pay for good coaching. If CBP was gone we would be just fine

I know that 200k would make me...

Sorry, too much information

Amen

 

[utucla]

It's not Pearl's coaching ability that I question...it's his ability to recruit smart players that I question....

 

[Volfootball55]

Yeah, because good coaches won't come to UT for 2 mil. Who's delusional?

What coach???? What, are we going to get North Carolinas coach, or Dukes? You tell me about this great coach who is going to leave his team for us, especially after us having the success we have had then booting the coach that brought us to where we are now out (this is theoretically speaking).

 

[smowkee]

nah...sure don't. do you?

Nope. I do have an American Flag up though.

you speak true, street hoops doesn't win championships
