He played without Lofton for about 6 games due to an ankle injury in 2007/2008 year. | He played without Lofton and lost, what, 4 of 6? |

| Santa Claus will coach this team before Bruce Pearl will. He will never ever ever ever ever ever coach the Vols again. Sorry. | |

| Pearl over Martin all day. I don't understand the hate for pearl on here. The dude put Tennessee back on the map. I hope Martin does great things for us, but to say you would rather have Martin over Pearl from what we have seen so far is crazy. | |

| Move the hell on people. He's never coming back and for good reason. Honestly, these types of threads are embarrassing. Martin vs. Pearl has nothing to do with it. | |

| I think Coach Martin is a great HC, I have no complaints, but Bruce Pearl was on another level, the guy turned UT into a powerhouse. He will never coach here again but if it were actually possible I would be completely on board with replacing Martin with him. | |

| Bruce Pearl is a cancer. He was surgically removed like a cancer. Too bad UT got the bad press for his ridiculous actions. We don't need coaches such as Bruce regardless of their record. Does a good win percentage justify cheating and then lying about it?
NO. | |
