To be fair, we look good, but it's still just a small portion of the season. Next season could go many ways, and we will have to play all of it to make an accurate assessment of Martin. But things are looking good IMO. GO VOLS!!

So what your saying is we shouldn't suggest he be fired after 15 games?

Bright side is we only lose Tatum and Woolridge next year. Tatum would be the biggest loss of the two. If we can keep our momentum going we could easily be in the top 3 teams in the east next season.

Yeah, that should definitely work to our advantage. Can't wait to see Stokes and Maymon after a full off-season together.

Well, the "East" technically doesn't exist in basketball anymore. But, because Vanderbilt basically will lose everything next year, Tennessee should easily be able to be better than Vandy, Georgia, and South Carolina next year.

This post is worse than the OP.

I've seen what hiring the right guy at UT can do. But I've also witnessed, numerous times first hand, what hiring the wrong guy can do. Through the first half of the season we were a crappy team with bad loses. At that point there was no indication that Martin would change anything.

Some were content to blame the players. I take a different approach and hold the coach accountable.

Have the players changed? No. Have Martin's style and decisions improved? Yep.

This thread should be stickied. All you have to do is say you were wrong and we will all forgive you. Until then, we will bump this thread after every win in perpetuity.

I was about to say, funny he left out Florida when Tennessee slapped them around twice this year.

Why would I include Florida? Florida may be good next year, depending on who stays/who goes and which recruits go where. If Florida is able to keep either Beal or Young in school, and lands Anthony Bennett, then Florida is looking good for next season. Which I can't exactly say that about Vanderbilt, Georgia, and South Carolina. Thus, I said Tennessee should easily be better than those teams. Could they be better than Florida next year? Possibly. But, it's neither probable nor definite.

And again, congrats on your wins over us, but I'd rather be in line for a high seed in the tournament than have a couple wins over a certain rival. :salute:

:rolleyes: Yep, Donovan definitely turned those two National Championship teams into mush. That Elite Eight team last year? Soft. Of course.

The fact you still are our bit** in our down years makes me feel much better about the future. It's not what you've done in the past so give it up, face it those years are gone look ahead, your still our jail house girlfriend.

And that's fine I hope you get a 1 seed, it'll just make the early exit that much funnier. Until you get some post players that can play 5 minutes without crying for their momma they won't be going deep in the tourney.

Sorry.

I appreciate that you seem like a reasonable poster from a rival program. Those are hard to find these days. The two wins were sweet, but I would rather have a definite spot in the tourney (rather than an optimistic scenario) than to sweep y'all.

Who knows though. One of our remaining 6 necessary victories down. On to the next one.
