  1. sorry dj burns, it’s all downhill from here.
  2. rick has previously expressed that he plans to continue coaching into the foreseeable future. as for who all the vols lose they lose a lot: JJJ, Zeigler, and Knecht. the transfer portal will once again be a huge factor in how competitive tennessee is next year.
  3. second team all-mwc last year.
  4. alright we’ve got two ML bets for tomorrow, both of which feature our bday dollars: Marlins ML and Royals ML. tomorrow we are all Royal Marlins. LFG.
  5. she’s going to make a bet on one of tomorrow’s games with the money (plus some more from me 👌🏻). stand by for our pick.
  6. it’s not a diss on rodney terry to talk about the special love that barnes’s players had for their coach who was here for 16 years in an era where you recruited guys at 16, signed them at 18, and stayed with them until 21-22. as was posted in S16 thread only one of our top 6 players this year started his career at Texas. that’s not the same for tennessee who had 4/5 starters recruited by barnes and in the program for 4-5 years, just like he did at Texas. that’s what i’m talking about. that kind of love. the kind of love that takes place when you’re with a guy from boyhood through his transition into manhood. we haven’t had that here since barnes was here, that’s just a fact. maybe RT will be here long enough for that to be the case with him, but until then, rick barnes remains a one-of-a-kind coach in the annals of UT Hoops history, and i miss the continuity of his program, as well as the family feeling that we had for the majority of his career here.
  7. or if tony bennett decides to foul up three with time running out. so crazy how these things play out in college hoops. the nba playoffs will always be my far the best on-court basketball product around, but there is nothing like the pageantry, the do-or-die stakes, and the underdog stories of college hoops. for me only the world cup rivals march madness for drama, intrigue, and importance. there’s just nothing like it.
  8. this team (#78 in kenpom and ready to fire their HC when the regular season ended)- has just done this: to go to the final four. one of the more unforeseen, unpredictable runs ever to the final weekend. amazing. another way to look at it: unreal.
  9. defintely still need a 🙄 rep option.
  10. are you kidding me with this tech? god damn it, just skip the fucking games and key the refs fill out the bracket and let us know who won.
  11. Aidoo was absolutely terrible offensively for three straight games, sending him to the bench should have happened sooner. him going to the bench has nothing to do with the outcome.
  12. the university of Texas hasn’t had a coach who was truly beloved by his players since rick barnes, and that’s something that i really miss about him.
