Some of my fondest memories as a child is going to Thompson-Boling Arena and watching the Tennessee basketball program play in big games. Well, at the time I started getting into basketball, the black curtains sealed off the upper level.
However, there were times when Jerry Green roamed the sidelines where Tennessee basketball was in it’s prime. Guys like Tony Harris, Vincent Yarbrough, and Ron Slay were attempting to make Tennessee a great basketball program.
Now that Rick Barnes has turned the program around, it is time for the basketball program to schedule tough games.
