Worst coaching job in 2+ years IMO

Mcrae took 21 shots during the game and the team should have gone inside more to Stokes....... He should be getting 10 to 15 shot attempts each game.

Zo needs to go to the old star system and let Jordie jack it 40 times a game.
Who needs a front court. 4 screeners and far at thang.

He averages 9 attempts a game. Pitiful.
But it was the same show last season. Jack em 3s and let him chase it.

Tennessee played the 1-3-1 Zone against Florida from the 9:45 mark to about the 2:45 mark. Florida did not score a basket against it and Tennessee cut the lead from 7 to 1. Florida made two free throws and hit a three on transition and Tennessee went back to man-to-man and Wilbekin banked in a three against it to win. It is extremely difficult to get off that shot on the exterior against the 1-3-1. Tennessee put away the game at Alabama in the second half running it 17 minutes. Against Vandy they use it two minutes and got beat 36 to 24 in the paint. At Missouri, it never showed even though they were driving into the middle at will and scoring or getting fouled. The announcers were even saying here is the perfect time to use the 1-3-1. I have not seen a team yet get the corner 3 from it. I honestly believe that Martin hates any type of zone so much and its not what he wants to be shown as as a coach. He wants to be known as the guru of man-to-man defense to the point he loses games because of it. Can you even imagine what the record would be now if they had been throwing it out there all year? Instead Missouri just knocked them onto the bubble and took their 11 seed!

And it's not as if he's not a good and willing passer. Offense should run through him, not Jordan, but that's jmo. We seem to come out initially looking to pound the rock, and it looked like the mindset out of the half too, then it just disappeared. That's bad coaching.

Look at these numbers, and then listen to this interview. Hard not to feel really bad for Jarnell...

Jarnell was 6-7 from the field at the 17 minute mark in the second half, then...


@VinceSports: Re-watched. Number of times #Vols passed to @JarnellStokes in the post in final 16:40 vs Mizzou..once! None last 11:41”


Stokes got 1 pass in the post in the final 17 minutes, after going 6/7 from the field and their entire frontline being in foul trouble?

Is Cuonzo's White Knight coming to the dark side?

Is it bad coaching? Is it McRae taking just taking over?

It's sad indeed. It's obvious Martin doesn't have a clue out there. He's way in over his head.

They did run the 1-3-1 today. Came out of a timeout and we were in it. The result was a lob-dunk over our back defender (McRae). Missouri then calls time out a few seconds later and sets up a trap in the front court and makes a steal on an errant McRae pass.

Point is, the 1-3-1 certainly has it's advantages...but when your guys play poor fundamental defense, it doesn't matter what you line them up in. Outside of Richardson, we have no perimeter defenders on this team.

Jordy never passes it to him. Cuonzo losing some control of the team.

He never had control of the team because control denotes that you can actually coach which CCM doesnt do very well. "Shooters got ta make shots" - Jordie went for 30+ and Stokes had a dbl dbl, hmmmmm

If you had read the title of his post, it read "Criticism is fine, but support your Vols." Again, you won't find many (or any) who say that CCM is doing an adequate job. But I will continue to support my program. It isn't that difficult.

My thoughts exactly.

So BTO, does this mean you've officially given up the fight for CCM? Have you inked your signature on the BBB petition yet??

It's pretty bad. I really don't have words. I don't see how anyone can defend this staff anymore.

No one can defend them. This team would more successful if the coaches stayed in the locker room the entire game. These players are good enough to roll the ball out on the court and win 75% of their games. Coaching is getting in their way.

BTO would have said that the Vols were still in the NCAAT according to Mo, Larry and Curly until today and may still say it tonight..... Plus he posted texts from commits that actually criticized fans for criticizing Zo for wanting Pearl. At least CBP went to 6 of 6 NCAAT... yea he a shytty coach,

As bad as Martin has been, his staff is even worse. I couldn't name one of them without looking it up.

Sorry, you don't understand. I was referring to that. Just because he says we are still in the tournament does not mean he fully supports CCM. They aren't mutually exclusive. Not logical.

By the way, as of tonight, I believe Lunardi still has us in. Does that make me a Martin supporter?
