Will Delmonico survive this year if we miss the SEC tourney?

[vols1118]

I say Delmonico keeps his job, because we need to keep Tony in the lineup.

[aevols2]

Even though I am not sure we should fire Coach D, but we should never keep a coach just to keep his son........I would love to see Tony field the ball alot better!

Hamilton's a lot tougher then the last AD. Just ask Buzz. I think he's gone.

[vols1118]

Alright, I change my mind get rid of him. His son isnt that good, we could replace him if we needed to.

[aevols2]

What are some names that could get mentioned if in fact he does get canned??? I know Hamilton came from Clemson so maybe a Tiger assistant......What about Garth Iorg? He has pro coaching experience plus he lives in Knoxville, just thought I would throw out a name.

Anyone right now could do better than Delmonico.

First of all, do you guys think Rod is probably gone, and how is our recruiting going? Do we have any impact guys coming in for the next year?

[aevols2]

I'm not sure on recruiting.......I do think Rod is gone......2 of our last 5 games we have lost 20-2 and 15-2.......unacceptable! I think the comment that he gave in the News-Sentinal pushed Hamilton overboard!

[TennesseeFan07]

What did he say?

[MississippiVol]

Speaking of recruiting, I read on another board where we were really recruiting Kentrell Davis out of Alabama and Sam Runion out of NC. I don't know where we stand with them, but it sounds as though they could be real difference makers for us.

[TennesseeFan07]

I'm not real familiar with baseball recruiting and don't know who they are, but I'm sure we need them.

[aevols2]

Not sure word for word but when asked about possibly being replaced he said something like....let em fire me they'll owe me a bunch of money....something like that

With stuff like that he needs to be fired. He makes the whole school look bad.

Do you guys know of any websites with baseball recruiting. I know of sites for football like scout.com, but are there any baseball sites.

My argument is that "top to bottom", as a whole, this league is the best. Not to take away from the accomplishments of the shining stars of the west, but their conferences as a whole are a joke compared to the 12 teams of the SEC.

SEC doesn't have the titles to back up any talk being the best conference.

That Vandy game was one game.

Its not ancient history. I provided all-time statistics, so the past and present were given equal acknowledgement. And the Pac 10 are not "jokes." Six different Pac 10 teams have won titles; I'll say that's a few more than the SEC, which has managed two all time titles in their ohh so deep conference.

Here are the 4-8 seeds in the ACC
4. Clemson (ranked 19, 18th in RPI)
5. Miami (17th in RPI)
6. NC State (19th in RPI)
7. Wake Forest (24th in RPI)
8. Georgia Tech (28th in RPI)

Here are the 4-8 seeds in the SEC
4. Mississippi State (27th in RPI)
5. Ole Miss (11th in RPI)
6. Florida (28-28 on the season, 41st in RPI)
7. Alabama (61st in RPI)
8. Tennessee (56th in RPI)

How are we deeper than the ACC?
