Vols move to #3 or #4 imo and back to #1 seed in projections
Blinded by stars...That is what all this amounts to. We have no heralded players, so there is no way we can be elite according to the thinking outside of VolNation....hell even a large chunk of our fans, guys like @HankHill and @Big Gucci Sosa and @Smokey123 agree with them. I hope it pisses them off, and lights their ass on fire for the real season coming up. If they play defense like that the rest of the way, beating them is going to be a tough row to hoe for anybody.
 
Tarton I believe was the name of the floor.
Had it at TN Tech also. We would goof off with their golf team sometimes. I could barely touch the net on our court, but could full on grab it in Cookeville. Made me feel a little better about myself......

You could definitely get a few more inches on your jumps with that surface. It would freaking grab a tennishoe too.

This.

I used to check in there and it is so incestuous it made me want to puke. Back at the end of CRB's first season and start of his second, I would post just to give him time to develop who he did have. They would be wailing at him and calling him washed up, riding it out to retirement, etc. Reminded them that UT was not an elite program and that when they started winning he would attract better talent. They blew me off, so I exited. We all know what has happened. VolGee tried to bring some sense to it at times. Admired his tenacity.

So yeah, it's the football forum for wannabe basketball experts.

I still hang out over there, but it’s amazing to me how many get so up and down during the basketball season. A loss in basketball is nothing compared to football.

When we have success, we also get drive-byes who want to bring “realism” by trying to explain that we aren’t as good as we think. UT basketball fandom is an interesting dynamic.
 
I do too, just don’t like how some were formed. Lots of ancestral homes taken for nothing. The Ken Burns documentary was spectacular but I am so torn when I watch it because on one hand I believe in conserving rare and beautiful lands, but on the other hand I am a staunch backer of private property rights. Good stuff.
Some times the good of the many outweigh the good of the one. The Smokeys would be being logged to death right now..Can you imaging Yosemite bring a gated rich mans domain, or Yellowstone with billboards all over it, and every geyser basin being owned by a different individual selling tickets? Nevermind the herds of Buffalo not existing, and Grizzlies on the brink of extinction..you want me to go on? How about the Everglades being drained and developed over? Yeah...That would suck a lot worse for all of us instead of a few individuals being moved out.
 
I know I know was just having some fun geez your getting cranky in your old age. LOL

Big boys will be coming after Niedermeyer for sure, but as the new support staffer from Bama indicates, coaches love working for Pruitt and Nieds has a tight relationship. Fulmer won’t let other programs outspend us for a recruiter...not after his personal experience with Rodney Garner.

We are the big boys.

Let them deal with it and fight for others scraps. Only way he leaves is if there is a promotion we simply do not have available
