I'd like to see his tour at Cal before I'd say he's not a great coachMartin felt some heat--and couldn't handle it. He's not a great coach--he threw the ball to our center, 14 feet from the basket, with 10 seconds left, while the guys who should have gotten it were left watching. We can do better. UT is a good situation, actually--we're the third best program in the conference, and sometimes challenge florida for the 2 spot. Would love to get Marshall, but it will take a good offer to even get him to look up.
After half of the fans ran Martin off, Why would any big name Coach come here? And when the next Coach doesn't Win in 3 years you guys going to sign a petition to run him off also?
His beloved Mizzou has legal troubles al the time and has a coach that paid players. His other beloved team, Louisville, chose to keep Clint Hurtt who was also guilty of cheating, and Pitino after his scandal, then rehiredYahoo/Pat Forde calling UT "toxic" and "dysfunctional." Brings up...well everything over the past several years in football and basketball. He acts like other major programs have fan bases with much lower expectations and far more patience.

Umm, see Bruce Pearl. Basically an unknown coach when he came to Ktown and turned the program around and got TREMENDOUS support from college and community.
We ran off a guy who couldn't spell X's and O's.
We are not a big time basketball school some on here think we are, we are NIT type team that's all we will ever be, oh we will have a 5 year run then 20 years of NIT, we are TENNESSEE , WE ARE A FOOTBALL SCHOOL.
I know we're not a blue blood like in football, but we have all the resources available to be one.
