I don't know where those fans are. It seems most are overwhelmingly negative about her.
Then you need to venture to some LVs basketball only boards. The blue hairs and cat women will shoot you down if you say one thing negative about Holly. It's always the players fault to that segment.

I did - noo matter what the men did I knew Holly's ability wasn't up to the standard required for a deep run
This^.......Holly has no business leading the LV program unless all you want is under achievers. But some fans are fans of Holly and not fans of the program. They love Holly more than competing for championships.

Got some good ones and some real good JUCOs in the early period and added a few good ones today.....Just hard to come off our worst season in school history.....a CLOWN that dang near destroyed our program going out the door and the cluster of a coaching search and get recruits excited about us right now. Hopefully Pruitt can show a lot of improvement this season and get things and recruiting in the right direction in 2019.
Emmitt Gooden has just signed and he was a 4 star DL here in West Tn. that had to go to JUCO out of high school.....He can be a real good one if he's got his grades in order.....He was recruited by several big time programs but backed off his senior year because of grades....UT was one of them.

Yeah...people take sports way too seriously. But where is he from? She may have wanted him to stay closer to home. Which is understandable for a mom. Still...walking out is a bit much.
Word is??? That he's been around some bad seeds in Pensacola and wanted him to go further away out of state And others have said she saw Bama $$$$ fly out the window

Offense puts fans in the stands and that's what the NFL wants for the fans and TV fans to experience looks like. I didn't come up....play or coach in this X-box world and I don't much care for it.....I like a good man on man 21-17 type game but the X-box generation now would be bored to tears. But now you can't much more than touch the QB or a DB can't much more than touch a WR without a flag so they are showing they want more points scored.

Been quiet since the early signing period back in Dec. I don't follow recruiting hardly at all, I just look who signed on the dotted line when it's over. I just don't put much faith in these 17-18 year old look at me types and put little faith in their early commits. Based on what I've read on boards the past several days from the people that follow and get into recruiting and what they have posted the past week it doesn't look as promising as it seemed 3-4 weeks ago......Coming off the worst season in UT history I'm sure it's hard to get big time recruits excited about us when the Big Dogs that have actually done something of late are recruiting those same kids too. I can see us not recruiting real well this class on the offensive side of the ball with Pruitt being a defensive coach.....But if Pruitt strikes out on the defensive side with kids he's been recruiting and formed relationships with the past 2 plus years then IMO that will be concerning. I'm going to be interested to see what the Peterson kid from Georgia does tomorrow.....we offered him and he committed to us when no other big time program was giving him a sniff and now after his visit to FSU last weekend several gurus are saying he's headed to FSU and not UT?. Based on what I've read on some boards we are looking at a class ranked in the 15-22 range. Can't live and compete in the top half of the SEC with classes like that going forward. Here's hoping for some surprises tomorrow.

Must be still waiting on that crane!!? We've been hearing that for 2 months now.
My brother in law works in high level management for a national heavy construction leasing company. He said he could have delivered a crane there within 72 hours of Botch's firing. Just shows the sorry management there at UT and why we have been in the dumps athletic wise for many years.

Played a really good 4th quarter where they have faded the past few games......I guess Holly got their attention in that 2 hour practice where all they did was rebound. I'd do it again before the next game too just to make sure they didn't miss anything the first time.

It really disappoints me to see Auburn on pace to win the conference. I've always been a Bruce Pearl apologist...until now. The current scandal was the final straw for me. There's no way he didn't know of Chuck Person's involvement and at this point it seems clear that Bruce simply can't help himself. He is a career cheater.
Maybe he's learned from the best in the business to let other people do the dirty stuff then in the end play Sgt. Shultz......I know nothing.....nothing.

What upsets me the most about this is that she only got 5 years for basically ripping off people with her "charity". If you look at charities one of the best you can contribute to is the Shrine Hospitals. I as a Shriner am very proud that we help children and contribute to helping burn and osteopathic types of children's problems and we never charge the family a dime for the services of the hospital. While there are some other great charities out there as well, the fact that this CRIMINAL basically was taking 99.9% of the money and using it to fund her own desires and lifestyle. 5 years is not enough for this kind of CRIMINAL. Basically she should have to spend 5 years and then pay back every single dollar to every person she DEFRAUDED! Sorry if you disagree, but this lady is abhorrently the kind of CRIMINAL that people should tell "you made your bed now sleep in it you fraud"

Holly played the good cop too long under PHS to change to the bad cop. She's too goodie goodie for the players to take her serious when she tries to be tough which is seldom anyway. She has no motivational skills. They showed one of her locker room pregame speeches a couple of weeks ago during the TV broadcasts in a game we lost and looked uninspired......I've seen and heard better motivational speeches at a funeral.

LVs won in the early season against some weak teams.....When they started facing teams with talent and actual coaching then the Holly factor comes into play.
