  • Did anyone else see McRae say something to our bench after hitting a shot early in the first half? I think that's why he got T'd up after the dunk - refs missed the first one.

    • The game meant a lot to UT and McRae. This interview makes me smile.

        I understand McRae is a competitor and competitors hate losing, but he sure was a poor sport in that interview.

            And that interview was with UT announcers; imagine what an interview with MK would have sounded like.

              I sure learned a lot.

              Great eye contact.

                  • You want to like a guy who can play like him...

                    I don't really even care that he didn't say anything about our game and seemed to try to downplay any comments about what we did.

                    What seems so odd to me is just how unprofessional and lazy his demeanor was. I mean, those were his guys interviewing him, right? I get being down about a loss so maybe I should assume that's all that was going on. Maybe they all just got ripped by Gonzo a minute before.

                    Oh well. Congratulations on backing up stereotypes with that awesome interview performance.

                    • An interview after a loss (and as he said the game meant a lot to them) is tough. I'm not sure he is a great interview at any time (I haven't seen any other interviews), but most assuredly not after a loss. Did he not see the camera there and know that every negative move of his head, rolling of his eyes and locking his arms around his body was going to be recorded? Of course the loss had nothing to do with how WSU played them or anything WSU did to cause them to not get the ball inside -- Tennessee just needs to move around more. A loss is a loss -- it's not the end of the world. I just hope when our first loss comes, whomever is interviewed will do so with a little more aplomb.

                        I was personally a little uncomfortable with the way Gonzo was ripping into his players at the end:



                        (BTW -- I wasn't sitting at that end of the floor so I am totally BS'ing about him. Now Mike Davis on the other hand ....)

                          I think I understand his position a little better now. I should probably give him a little space because it looks like Gonzo is really laying into those guys. I'd hate to have to come out and do an interview after that. Number 4 looks really upset. I mean thats a towel facepalm there.
