We played our hearts out but Texas A & M got hot and just beat us. Hard to blame anyone for this loss. They just outplayed us down the stretch. |

No blame? How about Clueless going into the locker room holding 3 time outs. Should have used at least one of them. Refs were lousy but we lost, at home, after a 14 point lead at the half, to the 143 RPI team. The buck stops with the head coach. |

You're the one that has no clue. You can't accept reality. |

Here's the reality. Martin is an NIT coach. He will never, that's NEVER have a more talented and experienced team for as long as he is at UT. Hopefully that won't be that much longer. Celebrating mediocre basketball is not going to fly with most of the posters on this board or any other UT board for that matter. I'd trade coaches with A&M right now and never look back. |

Agree Lonzo. Reality is also: No defensive adjustments in the 2nd half as they erased a 14 point lead Maymon was the second worse foul shooter on the floor. Great move throwing into him. No timeout taken with 3 left at 4.4 seconds left to set something up. Shoot poor % shot Don't inbound into a trap double team in a corner. No timeout used when JM was trapped in the corner. Had 3. McRae played 23 minutes. Even with a few fouls he had to get more. He did not foul out No pushback on officials. How about standing up for your team. Three timeouts - none used just to break their momentum YES Maymon should have hit free throws YES officiating was horrible YES - this game could and should have been won, at home with a 14 point lead at the half. The thoughts above were all from posters across several boards who know more then I do about hoops. Anyone who does not see that we have a coaching problem is in a vast minority across all boards. |

We are talking about one game. The players lost not the coach. They played hard but it wasn't good enough. People who need to blame the coach for every lost need to look at themselves. Their small meaningless lives need to point fingers at someone. |

Sorry- ZO is a not a good coach, has too much talent on this team to lose to A n M at home. He's gone anyways after this year. |
