Some think Martin is a great coach and eat up every word he says. But I don't. Buzz Peterson talked a good game too, but he was completely lost at a program like UT. We have tradition and a rabid fan base wanting to win so bad.
Martin still looks lost on the sideline too much for my comfort. He doesn't have any NCAA Tourney experience. He has shown to be stubborn in adjusting. There are just too many question marks with him for me to believe he'll take the program where it needs to be. He'll be the coach for 12-13. But my long term expectations are obviously, very tempered. | Making statements like this is exactly why you have no credibility here. One has nothing to do with the other, yet you are using it as support of your argument. Every fanbase has fans like you. It's ok.

Bottomline, he will be judged on Wins and Loses. He better move the needle way above a 55% win percentage. | |

Simple expectation. NCAA tournament and no embarrasing losses should be the minimum. | I've been out of the basement for a while and noticed that its been over 12 hours since a post.....
by the way, I left the basement and I'm looking out of a condo toward Copper Mountain. The view is much better here than Mom's basement.
