What a crappy end to a game we should have won easily. They went to sleep on the inbound and then can't hit a freeking foul shot. It's gotta get better!

Really? You didn't. I knew that was gonna happen from the moment jones hit the 3 and was sticking his tongue out. It's crazy how we always let someone on every team score like 20 points in the second half. That random player from NC State did the same thing. And McRae could have done the exact same thing, but apparently wanted to make it harder for his team to win. Idk why he didnt always have the ball, and why he wasn't always driving to the basket. He picked up a foul everytime he did and he was 100% free throws on the night.

SEC is pathetic this year. We can probably only lose 4 more games max to have a chance.

We will probably lose against UF and UK and then drop some more games against crappy teams like Auburn and UGA.

And that will get us in. I have been saying we lose 6 or 7. UF and UK and someone unexpected. Nothing has changed. We win 4 straight and crickets. Now we lose on bad calls and a buzzer beater and whiners are coming out the woodwork.

What? So its his fault the refs called a crap game and Maymon missed two to ice the game then they hit a lucky buzzerbeater?

To be up by 14 at the break and then get beat by 15 in the second half is not skill breakdown. aTm athletes are not THAT superior in conditioning or individual skill. And you cannot put it on the refs. It is coaching.

:no:

If we lose this game we can lose any game. There are no safe bets.

when they revert to the bad UT after half time, yes, it is his fault.

and the refs called the game how theyve been calling games all year. you cant touch players, thats just how it is. UT's guys didnt adjust.

It's his fault that we were in any position to lose that game. A&M was overmatched in frontcourt and he didn't expose it. We let one player beat us...can't give away easy conference wins. We can only lose 3-4 more games or no tourny

And if we blow out LSU and UVA like we did we can beat anyone in the SEC. This is basketball. Anyone can lose to anybody in conference unless you have a team full of NBA prospects.

"A Tougher Breed" my Arssss...

Laughable. Mediocre Coach = Mediocre Results!!!

CCM has been a HC for 5 and 1/2 years - You get what you pay for.......... NIT here we come - but this time unlike the last two, I won't be watching......

It must have really been tough on all the CCM haters having to wait through these last 4 games to cut loose again...
Click to expand...

like Tusculum was something to be proud of??? Really???

This is a typical CCM team - win a few - lose a few - Which will translate into an NIT bid.

When you hire mediocre, you get mediocre....you cant sit here and tell me with a straight face that CCM was the best coach that UT could have landed at the time he was hired. If you step on that limb and make that statement then you are destined for mediocrity.

I have always supported CCM... but he lacks charisma and energy, which I think college players need from a coach. Bruce Pearl is one of the worst x's and o's coaches of ncaa history, but his playing style and energy won games. Cuonzo is exact opposite. . No emotion and defense first... slow possession bball that only allows lesser teams to get hot and take games.

Nah I was... You must not read much or closely because I have congratulated the Vols for their wins except for the wonderfully incredible win over the mighty Tusculum College, a team that we had no business playing.

No second half adjustments except by A&M. This will look bad for NCAA tourney since A&M isn't really very good.
Oh well. As the saying goes, maybe next time.

I recorded it because my other half wanted to see "The Lone Survivor" at 6 pm. Should I save my time? Was it that frustrating?
