Why does everyone(I realized not everyone, literally) want him to get a tech? I think he works the refs enough. Vol fans should be proud that we don't have a bat crap crazy guy losing control of his emotions and providing that as an example to his players. Coaches that scream and cuss on the regular teach their players to do so as well. That isn't good for anyone.
You must have never played organized basketball. A coach getting a T is a great way to fire your players up and to get the crowd going not too mention you get to let refs know how you feel about the calls. Coach K cusses and screams. Almost every great coach is crazy on the sidelines and that's hood for the entire game of basketball.

If he couldn't find a way to get a tech while they reviewed a non-foul by McBee and came back with their BS foul call, then he is behind the curve in coaching. All I would have done is told them to keep rewinding the tape and go back and call all of the fouls and walks they missed already. He is weak on the bench for not supporting his guys.
I've said all along he is learning to coach on the big stage. It's a tough process that very few people can master. Hopefully we'll see cuonzo making progress the rest of the season, starting today against a cream puff at home.
I'm breaking my policy of replying to you, but go ahead, please quote where I've gloated about a loss or this team sucking.
Good luck.
Shocking. Back to the ignore policy.
I'd imagine that you, me and bTNo aren't the only ones who have noticed.
His thoughts on the officiating in recent games:
The Kentucky game, I thought that was a tough officiated game. That was a game I was sitting there trying to get a tech from those guys. I thought there were some questionable calls at Alabama as well. As hard as youre playing, youre trying to compete and as tough as it is to win on the road, youve got to give guys a fair chance. I thought some of those calls; I thought they were ridiculous to be honest with you. I said you cant win ball games like that. Then if its going to be played that way just call it on both ends of the floor. I just think you have to have some consistency in that department.
Coaches who sit are not the ones who draw technical fouls. Cuonzo can say anything he likes post-game to try to alter his perception as a non-involved coach, but actions speak louder than words. He has to walk the walk more than just talk the talk. I'm not buying what he's selling until I see it with my own eyes.
He is off his chair for probably 39/40 minutes a game, what more do you want?
Like I've pointed out, and he's never responded to rationally...
Where are his "positive" posts?
When Hubbs signed where was the hell yea, or go Zo, or whatever?
When we best UCONN where was the, that a way guys?
When we swept Florida, where was the go big orange?
When we beat Wichita State this year, where was the, now let's get this thing rolling?
All I see are negative posts from him...after good things you don't see him, but by god he's everywhere after a loss.
