A top 5 recruiting class for Butch Jones and Tennessee football.

An NCAA Tournament berth for Cuonzo Martin and the basketball team.

Holly Warlick and the Lady Vols' basketball team back in their rightful place as SEC champions and No. 1 seed in the NCAAT.

A 14-1 start and Top 25 ranking for Dave Serrano and the UT baseball team.

Does it feel like that dark cloud that's been hovering over UT athletics for so long is starting to lift a little bit??

Of all of the above I have the feeling the NCAA Tourney is NOT a done deal yet...too many BAD losses at the start of the year and in the SEC (Texas A&M twice comes to mind as well as UTEP and NCSU) and not being balanced out by many GOOD WINS

Easy solution:  Beat whomever (most likely the hawgs) on Friday and then beat the crrocs on Saturday.  That would not only get us in the dance but a more manageable seed as well.

beating the crocs would be huge...even a good showing is enough IMO, but a win would be monumental. Would almost certainly bump our seeding up
