Can we get a petition going?

To fire Raleigh, I mean, I know delmonico was around for years and it was a good run, but, after 1 year under the Raleigh tenure, doubts are already pouring out from tons of fans I know, Raleigh sucks, go back where ya came from and let's get someone who actually wants to win ball games.

I will say I am one of the doubtful ones, but I am willing to give a guy at least two years. If they don't succeed this year, or at least see vast improvement it is my opinion that there would likely be some change made.

Baseball and basketball (to a lesser degree) are those sports that if you're winning its--"Yeah Yeah Rah Rah" and if you're losing its---"OH Well". Football is a whole nother animal. You love it---even if you are losing.

To answer your question---No. Nobody REALLY cares.

2010 will be his 3rd year, not 2nd.

If the Vols don't make it to the conference tourney, he's probably gone.

Actually, people do care. And guess what, there are people who don't care about football either.:no:

 

[whocaresgobobcats]

And I've never liked the firing of Delmonico in the first place. And then for Raleigh to come in and run off several very good players, I just don't know what direction he is trying to take this program.

He has had 2 years, next season will be his 3rd. There was no improvement in year 2. Next season will hopefully be his last, because he's sucked since he's been here and was a horrible hire from the beginning.

Baseball yes, and maybe women's bball, but basketball is not even close to baseball in this regard.

And while UT is a football school, even still enough losing and people will stop loving it. Look at last season, apathy was setting in and crowds were down, and Alabama took over the stadium.

I heard on a radio interview back a few months back that if there wasn't improvement this year he is gone. That there was several players with injuries and it hurt him being able to implement what he wanted to do, and it actually gave him a reprieve from getting his butt canned. (I didn't keep up with it this year very much so I don't know if that was true but I do remember some players being injured)

I know one thing for sure though is Hambone does listen and if enough complain somebody will hit the bricks :yes:

I agree. It's a joke to compare the baseball following to the basketball following with 20k plus almost every game.
