"Huh. Have no idea where I got that from. Must've been an out-of-date article."

Oh what a tangled web we weave...

DSL simply misremembered

It's good to see dsl joining the ooc discussion with head held high for a change. Navy and VT are a cut above the usual Youngstown/Toledo/Akron/Kent diet.

We have Oregon in a few years I think...they were our replacement for Tennessee.

Our schedule is weak enough as it is...why play Tennessee and do even more harm?

You'll rue those words when Rawkeh Tawp rises agin!

or when the mighty Heels roll into Columbus...

heh It's true we haven't helped anybody's SOS lately. A couple more top 5 recruiting classes oughta fix that, though.

We do look forward to rejoining the annual bowlseason bacchanalia whereby an SEC team gets awarded a b10 sacrificial lamb. Mmm-mmMmm!

Ask Georgia how well that worked out!!!!111

I guess tick was right. He is gonzo.

To Cal?? Lateral move at best. He must've wanted out pretty bad

Maybe he didn't care for the fan petition to get Pearl back?

Yeah probably not.

Vol boards are in meltdown. lol, good reads

I can't enjoy this yet. They may trip up and hire Gregg Marshall. That'd ruin my week.

PEARL!!!!!

Told ya years ago UT basketball was a stepping stone job at a chick ball school,

Even without reading the article, I love the headline:

Rocky times: Dysfunction in Tennessee
Cuonzo Martin's exit should show a delusional fan base what the school has become.

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/cuonzo-mar ... 53186.html

I guess it does beg the question, however: If they're delusional, how can you expect to show them anything?

Love it...

'The bigger question is what direction Tennessee now turns. This is a school leaking prestige and reeking of unrealistic entitlement.

A delusional fan base believed it was going to land Jon Gruden as its football coach in 2012. Instead it wound up being snubbed by Louisville coach Charlie Strong. Tennessee ended up with a good hire in Butch Jones, but you would have thought the school was settling for the guy at Lenoir-Rhyne by the reaction.

If the same deluded thought process holds, Vols fans will be expecting Shaka Smart to crawl to Knoxville any minute. Or Gregg Marshall to take a pay cut to coach the Vols.

Reality is, turmoil-ridden Tennessee has to prove itself to a quality coach now. Not the other way around."

Living in San Fran area > Knoxville. Easy decision for the Cuonz.

I was fixin to say...

Knoxville is the rest area of the south. Ya dump, get back in the car & head on to your destination far far away.
