UKMustangFan Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Mind giving a few examples? Don't really feel like going back through my timeline, but the gist of it was Tennessee screwed Martin over and they were happy he was able get out.

George Amberson Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Oh. I thought you meant they didn't like him, and were glad he was leaving. That's what I thought too. I like that the players are backing him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Parker Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Randy Newman @bigblueexpress UT fans had a petition to fire Martin and bring back Pearl during this season. Now they have a thin roster, no coach, and Pearl at Auburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRCW Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I heard Martin didn't meet with the team to tell them the news first. My cousin, who is a big UT fan, and a fan of Martin says he lost some respect for Martin over that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And after the petition I don't think Martin cares about UT fans. And he shouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well so far I've only seen tweets from former players and a recruit. Not sure how the current players feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't really expect current players to openly criticize their school do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but that doesn't mean they're not disappointed in Martin not meeting with them to tell them he was leaving before the news broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MentschTrachtGottLacht Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 .... Basketball coaches do not want to be at traditional football schools....really hard to be 2nd fiddle. Guys like Billy Donovan that have learned to thrive in that situation are a rare bird. Cuonzo Martin has limitations as a coach, and I'll just say that I'm really happy he is going to Berkley and not to Cincinnati. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
