This team with the right draw can go a long way. They are just so tough to plan for . Driving and reversing to the other side of floor for open shot after open shot. Extremely fast. Coach is one heck of a coach
The coach and his style would be great at uk.
Wonder if he would ever entertain the idea

I saw it back when I went to Winston Salem to aee them play Wake Forest. Well put together team.

That was a clinic. I think we best Wake by 31 that day, Tyler Nickel made 8 triples. When we make shots, we are hard to guard.

We love Coach Byington in Nashville, he’s a stud. Good guy too, good ethics, very proud to have him.
I think I have your history here correct. You’ve been on our board a lot and it seems like you’ve always been a good guy. You’ve been respectful and taken your lumps when your team didn’t come out so well. Good luck to you and your team the rest of the way. It’s looking like you guys may get Calipari. We’d all appreciate it if you guys would beat the hell out of them.

No, I don't think he would want to come here. One bad year and a bunch of idiots would be on here saying he is the worst coach in the SEC. Forgetting the win vs Duke, beating the National Champs last season, 4 wins vs Tennessee in 2 years, beating both Calipari and Pitino this year. Doing so with 2 injury riddled seasons and some want to say they know who he is and ever is going to be. Why would anyone want to Coach here for fans like that?

We don't hang banners for that. We hang banners for titles/FFs.

If that's not what you want to do, we don't want that.

Yes, the rest of that is good. But you can't do that, and then lose by nearly 40 to Gonzaga. Or get blowout by Vandy and MSU.

We have bad patterns starting to develop.

Plus, they have much better overall talent.
I don't agree with that at all. They have got where they are from pure hard work. One of the least talented teams to be this good I can remember. Team is full of players nobody wanted

I think you’re right to a degree. Byington got a group of guys that a bunch of teams wanted, just not the blue bloods. We have some dudes though, Tanner, Duke Miles and Tyler Nickel can play.

Should be a better game tomorrow than the one in Fayetteville where we lost by 25 (Tanner and Nickel had the flu and Miles’ knee was fv **ed just before his surgery). I was at that game and we got our arse’s kicked.

I’ll be there tomorrow with the family, very excited to see Acuff Jr in person again.

Oh I know they can play.
Okereke is solid. He reminds me of someone pitino would have had back in the 90's. A do it all 4 that's tough as nails
