Oh, c'mon people. For three years it has been Buzzball without the hair. This will not get better than what it is. If Bama Dave wants to keep it this way this is what you should expect. Like it or forget about it.

Martin has been disappointing but people act like he's an under .500 coach.

He's not some horrible idiot some portray him to be.

Just because hes over .500 doesnt mean hes not a horrible idiot... Buzz peterson was over .500 and i think we all can agree he was an idiot...

Martin-60%

Buzz- 51%

Crazy how many people act like we have become South Carolina or something

Another disturbing trend. The SEC is woefully average at best. Dykes' comments about how many teams would make it in are disturbing. I agree with him that I think Tennessee is the third best team probably, but it is a distant third, and I can see the SEC getting only a pitiful 3 teams in the tourney.

The Vols are officially mired in mediocrity. Get used to it as long as Cuonzo and his inept staff are around.

Martin career winning %- 59%
Buzz career winning %- 55%

Very comparable numbers. Both are poor coaches.

Barton's performance looks even worse when you see Trade Golden's stats and Mathieu.

And pops was not an upgrade over Yemi.

Cuonzo don't get it.

In middle school I was taught that you pass to get out of full court presses. That you should never dribble in a double team. And that you have to move the ball and move in a zone to create opportunities.

Do you think Cuonzo forgot to teach our team that?

Tennessee looked lost and made no attempt to adjust to the same mistakes we kept making.

You can recruit athletes, but you have to know have to coach them. Cuozon has racehorses chained to a plow in his system. He has no clue how to coach defense and offense, or basketball with this group. Volnation, don't tear down the players, focus on the coaches (or lack thereof).

Martin has added a little drama to the game.
Maybe it's a new trend. The Perennial Bubble Chaser.
Exciting while it lasts and then you crash into depression.
Kinda fun for some of us sadists.

Cuonzo will get at least another year and that will only put Tennessee Basketball that much further behind the top of the SEC. Then, the AD will hire a semi successful coach from a mid major program.

That's just the way it is.

Why do we settle for trying to make the dance? Is that the standard at Tennessee? Hoping to get in to lose in the first round. I think Bruce proved that we don't have to settle and can compete. Martin is not the answer no matter how hard you try to make it so.

The rotation. What in the hell is going on? Not that it made any difference, but we saw Pops, Edwards, and Q (Q?????) today. I don't recall significant foul trouble. Just randomly plugging in pieces and praying for a spark? That's fine against weaker competition, but I don't see how you can throw any of those 3 guys into the fire against one of the best teams in the country on their home floor and expect anything but disaster, especially since they haven't played in a month or more.
