Just wanted to say good luck in the future with all the things going on. I think UT can get a great hire if they need to. UT has some great basketball tradition, and I think you are in a good position for the future. Keep your heads up. a lot of schools are going through a mess right now. It's not just you guys. Everyone is kinda scared right now.

I was expecting you to take shots at our program, but you're right. plenty of uncertainty in most of college basketball. thanks.

I honestly don't mean anything by the handle. I have the same one on catspause. I really want UT to do well because I think UK and UT have a great rivalry in basketball. I think it's overshadowed because UT is so damn good in football.

Yea you own us in football. But I support UK in football and love every second. I'm sure you guys don't want us to beat you and snap the 27 streak but I bet you pull for us in our bowl games. I pull for SEC, unless they play UK. I was pissed during the michigan game today.

I'm kidding Meeks54. You seem like an okay poster and I do enjoy the UK/UT rivalry. There's a reason I hate UK more than anyone and it just adds to it when you know you have enough competition on the floor to be competitive.

Tennessee does not have great basketball tradition.

Ok, let's look at it.

Based on numbers, if you break down the 6 major conferences, UT actually does pretty well. Look at the SEC.

You have 6 sweet 16's. You have 19 tourney appearances. 9 regular season titles and 4 conference titles.

Florida has 16 tourney appearances, 3 conference tourney titles, 5 regular season tourney titles. I know they have 4 final fours and 2 titles, but that's recent. So, UT has better success in some areas than the second best SEC program all time.

Look up Miss state, Ole Miss, Auburn, and others. UT has very good Bball tradition.

Yeah good luck you'all.. I kinda felt sorry for Pearl today. You could see it on his face in the final minutes of the game.

Anyone who comes here with the name Meeks54 is a troll by definition, even if they try to come off as classy. If I went to a UK forum with the screen name 26 Straight...I think you know the reaction.

It's definitely a POS handle. I don't know how I am supposed to take it other than a deliberate attempt to irritate me with every post.

I've already talked about the handle. I use this handle on every site I go to. TBK, catspause, ect..

Probably could have thought of a better handle for this board but nothing was meant by it.

However I am not going to apologize for recognizing one of my favorite players accomplishments. Especially when it is an accomplishment as big as breaking Dan Issels record.

I don't think 27 straight as a handle is a good and fair comparison either.

I think it's a perfect comparison. Both handles, when used on the rival's site, are going to irritate most of the Board.

Meeks' night is the only time I have been so mad, and I mean MAD, that I ejected the tape and manually destroyed it. I can't describe how mad I was at Bruce Pearl for his defense that night, because I knew your fanbase would never let us forget about it.

And, here you are, on a Tennessee Board, reminding me of that night, every time you post here. Freak should make you change that.

Nobody on this Board is going to react to you like, 'Oh, wow, that's his favorite player. That's so special. What a great tribute.' Fitting handle on a UK Board. POS, trolling handle, on a UT Board.
