wish barton would quit launching threes

I wish he'd start making them. He's wide open all the time because teams have to collapse on Maymon and Stokes and the attention they have to pay on McRae.

Barton making 3s will be a huge part of whether or not we will be able to beat Michigan. If he's knocking them down then Stokes and Maymon will have more 1 on 1s down low.

I'M ON THE CCM TRAIN.



Go Vols!!!!

:good!: Same here.

 

[utvolkyle06]

not gonna lie, i was one of them. Ccm has impressed me with this run though

+100

 

[Weezer]

Pretty sure Hart just kissed CCM

Tongue or no tongue?

 

[AdoptedVOL]

Congrats CCM. I think we're watching a relatively young coach grow and I like it.

 

[PowerOrange]

Won by 20 with a bad game from Mcrae.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Now my two game streak of having an interest in this sport is over. Maybe we'll do it again in 29 years.

 

[UT_Dutchman]

Interviewer is really rubbing it in negavol fans.

Very few say anything anymore. They'll be back as soon as we lose.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

All 3 SEC teams in the sweet 16. I guess the conference is OK.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Me too. He did what he had to do imho.

 

[Dave1967]

Damn our guys love CCM. I'm 100% on board GBO

I'm really happy how the team is playing for CCM!

 

[JCP201]

sweeeeeeeet 16!!! I have been eating crow for weeks now.

 

[ranradVOL]

There is no crow big enough for the amount of people on this board who tried to get this coach fired. F all of you IMO.

Grab the booty.

Yep. Richardson stepped up Big lately. Jordy will be ready next game.

 

[DocVol]

Tongue or no tongue?

Tongue IMO

 

[ATC_VOL]

So proud of this team and Coach Martin. A lot of us expected this team to be capable of a Sweet 16 appearance and it's great to see the team coming together and playing this great now. Go Vols!

 

[BigOrangeD]

wut????

Bad game for Jordy Mac standards.

 

[ToptheTerrible]

Me too. He did what he had to do imho.

We all liked the Pearlaid. Who wouldn't? But him going away to "who cares" U just might have been a blessing.

Why could they not play at this level all year? Same players.

 

[Dave1967]

sweeeeeeeet 16!!! I have been eating crow for weeks now.

Could you imagine how it could be if UT beats UM and UK beats Louisville? It would be awesome to play UK in the Elite 8.

 

[BigOrangeD]

We all liked the Pearlaid. Who wouldn't? But him going away to "who cares" U just might have been a blessing.

Agree.

 

[UT_Dutchman]

Charles Barkley is a freaking moron, saying we got lucky to be in the tourney.

Or you could root for the Vols, Mr. Guru. No reason not to support their success.
