You people need to realize that you are finally going to have a "winning" coach in this state... in Athens... if just for one night!! Boycott Athens all you like... there's nothing there to boycott anyway. It's just a spot in the road between Knoxville and Chattanooga.
Jones may be a "talker" and get the fans fired up with his speeches, but he is still a 5-7 coach just waiting to happen.
Geno ... 10 fewer years coaching and still equals Pat's National Championships. In 10 more years, he'll have at least 3 more. As far as a UT-UCONN matchup next year, it won't be at the Final 4... the Lady Vols will never make it that far.
in response to utclassof67: It is said that many players reflect the character of their coaches. In Rizzoti's case, that seems to be true...classless and rude. What a classless thing to say in Knoxville TN!!

Knoxville, Storrs... who cares where she said it ... it was RIGHT!! Pat NEVER beat Geno in a National Title Game!!
Little Tyler is getting good interview experience... that may land him a middle-school position as coach. Glad UTC overlooked him and hired Foster. Of course, Foster jumps around more than a kangaroo.
Coastal Carolina was smart enough to see it... hopefully, UTC will see it too. He's not ready. Just because mommy could doesn't mean he can.
in response to richvol: Look at the difference that the UConn center made in her physic over her four years and look at the overweight post players that we had in Pat's last years. The men's BB strength is guilty as well. Wayne Chism spent four years here and never gained any muscle or definition. This is a very demanding job that requires real talent. We should try to hire UConn's strength coach.

Why would a UCONN strength coach take a DEMOTION and come to UT? :)
Let Warlick and Pensky do the strength coaching then!!!
in response to Sand_Pebble: You are exactly what is wrong with our culture and human nature in general. You see Mrs Summit, this icon of basketball and hero to young girls everywhere as a used up asset that should be sent to the knackers to be turned into glue. I would try to shame you but I am pretty sure you feel absolutely no shame from your comment. But don’t worry, money always talks the loudest and if Mrs. Summit doesn’t end her connection with the school in the near future some bean counter will win over the majority of the sheep and she will be kicked to the curb.

Culture and human nature have nothing to do with this. It's a WASTE of money... PERIOD. Her legacy will live on, but she is no longer a part of the UT sports system. Cut off the money!! Besides, when Geno has been coaching as long as Pat did, her name will be below his in National Championships. Folks will say, "Pat, who?"
in response to mikeypanic: when will enough be enough? good grief.
in response to mikeypanic:

good grief.
Hey Mikey... I totally agree with you. What do they pay her for anyway?... to watch Lady Vols basketball games and give advice and pats on the back? She could always move to Connecticut and be an assistant to Geno. She could then enjoy more wins.
in response to KnoxVegas88: 5-7? Is that your height? No wonder you have "little man" syndrome. So how much do they pay you to be a cubicle troll? Minimum wage plus a spiff for every reply you get? Your mommy must be so proud of her little loser.

6'2", 225 ... so now, is 88 your IQ, or the year we were blessed with another idiot in the world?
5-7 at best. Not too bad for a great recruiter.
Could make a run for a title next year?... and make a decent run in the NCAA tournament? You folks are dreaming. If you want a title run, get a new coach. Sounds like Martin is going to be begging him to stay.
... mapping out a course for another 5-7 season!! Go back to Denver, Peyton.
in response to gc_scvol: Fist off..How do you have time to write your absurdities while practicing for the masters? Cobra Golfer my big ol' hairy butt. Little bit of EGO there. NO. 2 anybody who would come on this site and show disrespect for Pat is a classless LOSER. You aren't really worthy of anyone's time, however I will take time to tell you this before I sit back and watch you make a total ARSE of yourself. You are pure pond scum for even having the cahoonahs (sp) to post anything contrary to the fact that Pat Summit is the most honorable and respected Womens Basketball Coach of all time. With that, I leave you to wollow in your misery....

Did I show disrespect for your beloved Pat? NO. I even referred to her as a great coach. I said that Geno will end up being the better coach as far as numbers are concerned. Pat Head Summitt NEVER beat UCONN for the National Title. Now, am I showing disrespect for you? YES! If I wasn't worth anyone's time, I'm glad I captured 10 minutes of yours to read my post and respond... it probably took you that long to think of something. If I'm pond scum, then you are a nasty carp cruising around as a bottom-feeder!! So go wallow in the MUD!!
in response to MetroplexMojo: So I am an idiot for pointing out a lie and really bad spelling from a troll? It appears that you have the same reading comprehension as the UConn men's team....the team that was too stupid to make the NCAA field this year.

Not at all. But you can't compare Final Four trips based on 9 extra years of going. You have to compare wins and winning percentages. It's a fact that Geno is right there with his National Titles with 9 less years at the helm. And as far as UCONN men... not interested. This is about the women's game. Pat was a great coach, but Holly will not be.
For all of you idiots comparing Four visits... Pat had 9 extra years to get there. Since 1998, UCONN leads UT in National Titles 6-2. Geno has a better career winning percentage. Pat NEVER beat Geno in the title game. Give Geno another 9 years and then take a look at the record books. I like Louisville, but tonight, UCONN will dominate. GO GENO!!!!
in response to madrigal: Well, I guess Holly CAN coach! Congratulations to her on this award! Here's a stat I bet a lot of you didn't know. I didn't until yesterday. Holly had NO returning starters...none. Of this year's starters, they missed a total of 46 games. Yet she took them to the e8. Now THAT is coaching! So they had the jitters...wouldn't you, if you were looking at the team that had just beaten Baylor? If you say no, you aren't honest, least of all with yourself. And if you say it's Holly's fault, you haven't read any of Pat's books. Cobragolfer, you need to take your sour self off to a corner. If it weren't for Pat, Geno wouldn't be where he is today. She paved the way. Holly learned from the best. And as for Holly's recruits, are you really going to start now dissing the #2 class in the country? You might want to start thinking about how you want your crow cooked.

And you Madrigal, need to get yourself one or two more partners and start singing the blues when the Lady Vols keep sliding down the standings. Geno OWNS Pat in the big game. That's why she stopped playing him. And for overall records, Geno has a higher winning percentage. Like I said, check the record books in 9 years. Geno paved his own way.
ps11824... as far as Geno goes, he WILL tie Pat's record TONIGHT for National Championships. Pat Head coached 9 years longer than Geno has. In 9 years from now, take a look at the records!!As far as Holly... just wait until "her" recruits start playing. They will be looking up at the teams ahead of them in the standings.
Holly and the Lady Vols were OUT-played, OUT-scored, OUT-classed, OUT-coached, and OUT-sted from the tournament. Congratulations to Louisville, but it would have been so nice to see Geno get ANOTHER win over UT. Go Louisville, and go UCONN!!
Go West!!! Make him cry again!!!!!!
Sgt. Carter may "outspeak" Saban, but he sure can't "outcoach" him!!
Bruce Pearl will come back when Lane Kiffin and Mike Hamilton return!
in response to BIVOLAR_BEARE: Uhhh, get some help, Troll..
in response to BIVOLAR_BEARE:

It's not me that needs help... it's the UT Basketball and Football teams, coaches, directors, etc. Now, I have two words for you Beare, but I can't say them here! Have a nice "off-season" and make sure you attend the Orange and White game!!
in response to TheEffect: Sure you wanna go there? Check to see who the worst losses in Tennessee history came to.....go ahead. I've seen several myself, including a 61 point bloodbath The Cats put on Tennessee. It only counted as a one win....and we have a ton more than UT. Along with more SEC Titles, SEC Tournament Titles, NCAA Appearances, Sweet Sixteens, Elite Eights and of course.... NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS! You got nothing dude....so don't look like an idiot by trying to go there.

Yeah... and that's when that idiot Wade Houston left Allan in the entire game so he could add to his career total points. Loved that Cat thrashing! Of course, I love any thrashing the Vols receive!!
in response to JimmyJoe: Why did our AD not explain to our dimwitted coach... And it's obvious now that he don't freakin get it... That he needed to come out and blow this team out...send a message to the NCAA that we did belong.... Because it should be obvious to everyone on the planet that w don't belong anywhere. SUNDAY WAS EMOTIONALLY DRAINING? ARE YOU KIDDING ME CUONZO?!?!? ARE WE TALKING MEN OR LITTLE GIRLS!!!! You got OUTCOACHED, outplayed, outclassed, outprided, out everythinged. and guess what! The SEC will be better next year...what will be your excuse then! This is stupid. Why don't you stupid media guys stand up and tell it like it is... Instead of being to afraid to call CUONZO out? This is the second year of this... And when is it ever going to gt better? Never... Not with this coaching staff.

EXCELLENT POST!! Now Martin, you have a reason to CRY. You couldn't even win the Rocky Top League if this bunch were on the same team! You can't coach! The NCAA was right! JimmyJoe is right! Now shut up and go into hiding! GO MERCER!
I told you that UT would take a beating from Mercer!! Now Martin, you really have something to CRY about and to be baffled about! SHUT UP and dream of next year... LOSER!! ... and you too, BIVOLAR BEAR, usnavyvolfan, orangecountyvols, and LSG!
For all you UT fans who are calling me a TROLL for being on YOUR fan board... I didn't come here as a fan board basher. I got here from KNOXNEWS.COM. If there is an article about the Vols in the paper, then I'll comment. As far as Cobra clubs... look at the beating the US Ryder Cup team took from Ian Polter... a Cobra player!! The Vols will experience their beating tonight.
in response to BIVOLAR_BEARE: Well, you're not welcome here, POS..Hit the trail like the rest of the horse shirt..GBO!!!!!!!!!!

Too bad idiot!! I'm here. Worship your Vols and and take up for your fellow fans. I'm sure they'll give you a pat on the back.
in response to orangecountyvols: Once again Vols, whomever this little punk is.....crawls back onto our site. Know what troll? Vols are making you look ridiculous by your very presence here. Quit while you are this far behind. You'll never catch up here.....................kid.

First of all big boy ... I'm not a troll. I live in this city and have been here all of my life. I didn't go to UT and I'm NOT a UT fan. My opinion is mine and yours is yours. It takes a "little man" to hide behind a screen. Change your name to "YELLOW" instead of orange... and enjoy your beloved Vols.
Hey Martin ... save your crying for when Mercer puts you OUT of the NIT. Just take the consequences for not having a worthy team and be quiet.
MTSU before the VOLS!! I love it! Hey Martin, go play in the NIT and have fun. One and done there too!! NIT = NCAA rejects!!
Martin and the Vols in the NCAA? HA HA HA! I predicted this many games ago. They are NOT worthy. ONE AND DONE in the NIT. GO MERCER!
No matter what the seed... ONE AND DONE!!
The Vols were GIVEN their much needed win. UT shot 38 foul shots and Auburn shot 12. Please NCAA, don't give UT a spot. Send them to the NIT.
"ONE AND DONE" in the SEC Tournament. This team is over-hyped.
He'll never lead the SEC, so let him enjoy his lead at Bristol.
in response to VolFanInTheBoro: You're the best loser in life
in response to VolFanInTheBoro:
You're the best loser in life
And you are the best BURRO in the Boro!!
If they make the NCAA, then somebody has paid BIG MONEY to somebody. They don't even deserve the NIT. Just remember... the winner of the NIT tournament is the best loser of the NCAA!!!! :)
See my earlier post. I knew it. Just a slap on the wrist and back in uniform. I hope the Bulldogs beat the Vols like a DRUM!!!
Slap on the wrist, back on the court.Typical routine.
2013 record ... 5-7. That should fill it up, Haslam. Go to Cleveland!!!
in response to Mrlogic: You can't keep losing key players to injury (three starters) and except to win anything. The Lady Vols certainly have had their fair share over the last four years. I think Holy has done a good job with what she has had to work with. If this team had everyone healthy like Notre Dame, who knows what might have happened.

I know that the Irish would have still won!
Pitiful averages by the football and basketball teams... take away the grades that the teachers GAVE the players, and those averages would be even LOWER!!

in response to rb4346: I think you are going to be surprised by the Vols record this year. I feel like we have a great group of coaches, just give them the chance to prove it. As far as Deek Dooley, he is gone now so you need to forget about him and let the man get on with his life and you get on with yours. GBO

The only suprise would be a 6-6 season. 5-7 at best! Now, get on with your life after reading this.
Money well spent for a 2013 season record of 5-7!!!!!! It's the Derek Dooley saga... Part 2.
