Memphis radio also said we know how it feels to have a pastner type coach ala Rick Barnes. Those clowns will throw sh** at a wall and it won't even stick. I hate Memphis radio, Gary Parrish is the worst along with Jason and Jon.

Jason Smith has picked Vols to go to Final Four and has said nothing but good things about CRB.

I heard today that Mike Daum, the 6-9 PF from South Dakota State who had 27 pts and 6 rebs against tOSU today, may opt to be a grad transfer next season. Would be nice to add him to next year's team if Simons opts for the NBA.

Woah. That guy could pick his school if he transferred.

Eh, I haven't heard Gary talk bad about Barnes. While he is arrogant, Gary usually tells it like it is.

John Martin is different. I haven't liked him since he started. Such a young, dumb homer.

While I agree he’s a stud adding him would concern me...having watched them some he is a bit of a gunner and selfish player. Again don’t get me wrong he’s a great player, but I just wonder if he would come in and change up his game for the better of the team.

Yea, I didn't even get a chance to see him play. I saw him play in the NCAAT last year and just knew he was a stud for them. The staff would have to do their research. It could be that he is needed as a gunner for them to win, but it may be that he is selfish.

No point in Barnes offering his only scholarship to someone unless it's a player who makes this team even better. I'm sure there are a ton of guys who'd take it if Barnes offered it to them, but now he's in a position to be choosy.

If he was to come to Tennessee, he would play Barnes's way or he would not play.

If Simons doesn't come I wouldn't mind getting Parker Stewart, who is transferring from Pitt. From Union City. With such a deep team we have the luxury of a being able to spend a spot on a guy who will have to redshirt.

The same concern could have been said for James Daniel, too. He's worked out fine and embraced his role. I think Daum has to realize that if he does indeed transfer, and goes to a contending P5 team, he is likely not going to be averaging 20 ppg.

One player can definitely change team chemistry... We have an unselfish disciplined team right now.

No clue of the interest either way, but he looks the part for what we’re needing.
