Vols fall to Louisville, 79 to 60

Prince killed us with his stupid passes and turnovers

also we should have played Williams more he was are best rebounder and we didn't get hardly any rebounds

We absolute got it handed to us! When you can't make the ball go through the hoop...you're going to lose. Simple enough right?

Coach Pearl has taken UT farther than his predecessors in recent history. It takes time to turn things around. 5 years ago we wouldn't have even gotten to this level in the tournament. Coach, keep up the hard work!!!

Congratulations Vols for having made it as far as you did. That's reason to be proud.

We've got next year!

You'll find out the true meaning of "real team".
It's a long bus ride back to Louisville, but at least you'll be able to watch the Finals at home.

Like I said in recent post you can't get to the final four without a point guard. Prince might make a point guard but it will take years he makes stupid passes and dumb fouls. Williams is the only one that plays on the south side of the of the 3 point line you can't get a rebound playing at mid court.

We don't care that you don't care.

Quit complaining.. This is the first in years, I mean years that we are talking basketball this late in the year.. This program is 1000% better and the program is making noise around the country - so shut up everyone and move on...
I enjoyed watching Coach Pearl, he brings the juice and energy we need around campus.. Listening to Fulmer is so boring and so easy going that is the reason his job is on the line...
Thanks for the year and let's start counting days for basketball season to start.

Hey silly man: Be a man - face the music if you don't UT and live in Tennessee - get out of here

We all knew this was coming guys.... The way we played the first couple of games showed we was eventually going to get it handed to us like we did last night. Tennessee can't compete in the tourney with top notch basketball recruiting schools like Louisville, North Carolina, Kansas... Never will.... We're doing the best we can with mediorce talent. Mediorce at best...

Soo what your saying to me is that you need somebody else to take care of the Big East bully.

Begin Rant -

You know, this is one reason Vol athletics (well, men's basketball and football at least) annoy me so much. There is always pointing of fingers and excuses left and right. The bottom line is the Vols got outplayed. Louisville got done what they needed and left with the win. So instead of trading insults, accept the fact that they got outplayed and finally proof for all of you who believed Tennessee should've been a #1 that they shouldn't. Bottom line: quick whining and let the team handle their affairs instead of so called fans acting like this. Instead of whining and crying, why don't you take all this energy and all cheer on the Lady Vols who seem to have fallen through the media cracks.

- End Rant

You can be proud of your team without being rude. It was a game well played.

Anyone who has blasted the football Vols should now take some strokes at the men's b-ball Vols and coaching staff.

Let's look at the similarities. Best talent in the country. Won the SEC east but could not with the SEC championship. Finished in the top 16 teams in the country. Has continued a so-called mediocrity.

Now imagine 3-7 years from now when Bruce does not win 20 games in a season. I can already here it starting.

*hear*

See, everyone whined that they should be number 1 seed and look at them now! They didn't even deserve number 2 hahaha! Wow you guys sure look like idiots now!

Finally we can stop with the idolization of Brucie and his "boys".

Bruce Pearl is absolutely the best thing that has happened to TN Basketball since the ray mears Era, great season, so good to see Thompson Boling full again, too bad we don't have the same type coach in football.
