Spartan spur fan and Adrien Payne companion, Princess Lacey died. Awful. She looked healthy on TV. Did a good job hiding it.

 

 

 

She was just with him at the dunk contest in Dallas on Thursday too, sitting in the front row. f*** cancer

I have to share this since I don't win things often. One of my vendors was hosting a NCAA tourney pool. They are nation wide and have thousands of customers. Free to enter with tons of sports prizes offered from a memorabilia shop. I won. By 1 point. Woo Hoo! What I won was was a Magic Johnson autographed Michigan State jersey with case. I don't have many non-Sox things in my sports room, but I can find room for this.

That's pretty awesome.

That has to be a crushing blow for Tennessee.

Eh, it sucks but it's not crushing. I'm honestly not too worried about it. I liked Cuonzo a lot, but it's now clear that ties between he and the administration were severed. He wasn't coming back. He took an inferior job in a part of the country where he has absolutely no ties.

 

We just have to make the right hire. Greg Marshall wanted the job in 2010, but we didn't offer it to him. He might not feel the same way now, but you have to at least ask. That would be a major upgrade. Though I don't think it will actually happen.

 

Archie Miller is another guy I hope they reach out to.

All the Tennessee players are showing support to Martin for leaving, which you don't see very often.

Yeah, for sure. He's a good dude. Probably one of the few coaches who actually cares about his players and their well-being more than winning. All of our players were good individuals and we didn't have a single incident with the law while Cuonzo was here. But other than our nice tourney run this year, we were disappointing on the court.

WSU fans are pretty confident Marshall won't go to Tennessee. They're a pretty delusional fan base in general so it doesn't mean a whole lot but thought I'd pass it along.

Thanks. Yeah, I'd be confident if I were them too. It's not even certain he'd get offered the job, to be honest. Supposedly he's a bit of an oddball and very difficult to work with, which is why he's been passed over by bigger programs in the past. That's why UT didn't offer him in 2010. But I couldn't care less about that as long as he wins and he runs a (relatively) clean program.

No matter if he stays or goes, you can bet Marshall is getting a raise. This is where agents earn their money.

He is in a position where he can wait for a much better job than Tennessee at this point.
