| The Coach is failing
I read some of these posts blaming Pearl for not leaving anyone, blaming the players, etc. UT has plenty of talent. Mcbee, Tatum, Maymon, Golden...these are all guys who should not have any problem beating Austin Peay at home or C of C anywhere.
Why in the world would Gonzo keep shooting 3's when you have Naymon in the middle? They should have fed him everytime before kicking it out. Every single time. The 3 is always going to be available, why keep trying against a team that clearly doesnt have the horses to play in the middle? Are they set on running an out of control offense? If thats the case just play 5 point guards and shoot 3's all night. Dumb offense, dumb strategy = terrible coaching.
Coming from a neutral party----the problem isnt on the court, your problem is the coach. Reminds me of UK with Gillispie. They had Meeks, Patterson, Bradley and Crawford and still couldnt win a game.

By the way, I laughed when you said talent, and the first name you brought up is McBee.

| So I guess Bruce Pearl was more of a joke since he lost to Charleston with more talent 91-78. So if Martin is as fail or less fail than Bruce then we should be ok. | |
