It’s been a rough few seasons for Tennessee basketball. When Cuonzo Martin left the program after three mostly okay seasons, the Vols handed his team over to Donnie Tyndall. And the disastrous hire of a future show clause recipient set the program back substantially. Players came and went and Rick Barnes took over in hopes to stabilize a sinking program. UT has the facilities and history of a solid second tier program but has sunk because of the very recent and loose past with the NCAA rules and investigations. So turn to Barnes, a man with a good, solid and clean record and expect him to right the ship.
