To the entire Tennessee Basketball team, and to Bruce Pearl, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Go Vols!

Not sure I've ever said this before, but I completely agree with Hotlanta.

Todays loss is dissapointing but I've never been prouder to be a Vol fan. Great season with a ton of great memories. Who would have thought this time last season we would win 20 games, the SEC East, be a #2 seed and be a top 15 ranked team most of the season. Things are looking great for the future and with the kind of recruiting classes we'll have coming in here from now on we'll be a powerhouse in a few seasons. Thank you players and CBP!

there is no way to be disappointed or negative at all.....if someone wouldve said UT will win at Texas by 17, sweep UF,win the East, and be a number 2 seed in the tourney then i woulda prolly started laughin and said can we please either just make the tourney or the NIT this year. To be honest, I thought we had very little at the beginning of the season besides CJ and Chris.....but other players stepped up and made big plays to help this team....i mean what about JaJuan Smith(how he didnt get 6th man of the yr blows my mind) ,Andre Patterson, and Major Wingate....who remembers Ryan Childress takin 2 charges against UF when they were ranked 2nd? and Jordan Howell runnin the show for spurts, with none being bigger than the last 4 and a half minutes of the UF game here when Watson fouled out....what a great year with many great moments....Wingate disappointed at times....but wait until next year....i bet he is a much better player....

Coach Pearl on his show after the game...."We will be back"....

Great season. I was pleasantly surprised b ythe success and can't wait for next season. We'll definitely miss CJ but Pearl will have plenty to work with including Lofton and the great recruiting class.

Thanks guys. It's nice to let the basketball season end on postive post. UT men have now laid the building blocks for a very sound basketball program for solid recruits (in one year).Coach pearl flipped out program!

I totally agree with you. Something got into Wingate the past couple weeks and I think he is going to take that and build off of it. What really pains me is that Dane had to play with that injury for the past 4 weeks. could you imagine how good he would be right now if he didnt have a torn tendon in his wrist. Next year is looking BRIGHT for us!!

Thanks for one great basketball season. You guys have nothing to be ashamed of. I am one proud Vol Supporter. Thank you Coaching Staff, Coach Pearl and Staff, you have put UT on the Basketball Map and I am very appreciative of all you have done for the University and the Basketball Team. A giant Thank You to the players. You guys hung in there and did an absolutely wonderful job this year, its been a pleasure watching you progress the way you have. Too the Seniors, thank you for sticking with the program, when things were not going so well I know you were sure to have some second thoughts. I am very happy for you that in your final year some good things have happened that will bring a smile to you in years to come. Once again Thanks Basketball Team and Coaches.

My favorite moment of the year is from the time in the ETSU game that I realized Dane Bradshaw wasn't the same turnover machine I had known before, all the way until I thought they were going to take this one today. WSU shot lights out from three, many shots that looked impossible fell for them... We were cold, yet still in it until the end. I LOVE this Vols team... Thanks to them I can be PROUD of UT during bball season, where half of my family is in Lexington, I no longer have to hear "Just wait until basketball season." I can now say "BRING IT ON!" :D Great season guys! I'll miss you CJ!!!!
