Interesting stat about UT's coaching staff

[UTCVol]

University of Tennessee Athletics: Men's Basketball

Combined, UT's staff scored more points in their college careers as players than any other staff in the country.

Hmm...that is interesting.

 

[architecturevol]

pretty interesting.

 

[VolFromNashville]

It would be cool if that would translate to the most wins in the country...
Just kidding. But I'm curious to see how this team competes this season.

But none of them roomed with Michael Jordan.

 

[ITSGR82BATNVOL]

so they all obviously know how to score the ball ... and their all about teaching tough team defense ... sounds like the makings of a pretty good staff to me

"This staff is full of guys who have been high-level players in Division I basketball," Martin said. "We know what it takes to not only perform at your best on the court but also manage the demands of being a student-athlete."

Solid

 

[YankeeVol]

That is interesting. I'm excited to see what they can do

Wes Washpun is already looking like our best defender in practice. Excited about him!

How could this be true? He was only a three star recruit. Remember, Martin can't recruit.

Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning!

Once the season starts we'll realize how much this team misses Tobias & Scotty. They maybe scrappy, but replacing markee guys that can score is never easy. The motion offense Coach Zo is implementing may take a while to get use to. If the point guards can catch on they may suprise some teams. Expectations shouldn't get to high until we see the recruits for next class and how this team/staff competes against major competition.

Do any of them still have eligibility?

I like this stat.

Yeah, he can't coach neither! Bruce will be back!

Hey UTC Vol Thanks for posting, most average fans think this staff does not know what they are doing. I think this staff is going to be great!


Thanks again, Go Vols....

Just because you are a good player does not mean you will be a good coach.

Just because you are a good player does not mean you will be a good coach.

Wow. What a compelling argument.

True. Buzz was a pretty good player. We just have to wait and see. We will know by mid season.

It might take longer than that. I still can't project Dooley's future.

Doubt CDD will make it since we have made little progress, if not sliding backwards.
