My cousin (who just got named head coach at South Doyle, btw) tweeted this, and I thought it was pretty good: Don’t get lost in seeding arguments or what could/should be. You’ll drive yourself crazy never celebrating victories! Championships are special! Championships are unique! Championships are tough! It’s ok to enjoy the moment AND have a passionate desire for future success! It’s coach speak, I know… still. We did something SPECIAL today and have the opportunity to do something even more special in front of us. Go Vols! Title: Re: I'll get over it by Thursday, I promise.

As for Lunardi, I think he had a really good source, and didn't necessarily see UT as a 3 seed. However, he couldn't divulge that, so he had to act like the math was his.

But it also has to be said that Calipari has been right all these years...the conference tournament doesn't mean jack. Title: Re: I'll get over it by Thursday, I promise.

Yes, I think it's clear now that while Lunardi is good at his craft, some of his "insight" is actually someone feeding him info from the inside. No way he predicts UT as a 3-seed if he isn't getting that from someone on the committee. Title: Re: I'll get over it by Thursday, I promise. But ya'll are going to have to...

It's nothing more than big money to the conference. Title: Re: I'll get over it by Thursday, I promise. But ya'll are going to have to... Post by: PirateVOL on March 14, 2022, 05:13:00 EDT Forget the tourney
In one month, after beating Kentucky, Auburn and Arkansas and all the other games we moved up one spot to 10th! Title: Re: I'll get over it by Thursday, I promise. But ya'll are going to have to...

No way he predicts UT as a 3-seed if he isn't getting that from someone on the committee. I think that was made quite evident today when Reese Davis pressed him on this question and he couldn’t give a legit answer, instead hiding behind his super-secret “algorithm”. :frown: Title: Re: I'll get over it by Thursday, I promise. But ya'll are going to have to... Post by: BanditVol on March 14, 2022, 09:26:49 EDT I choose to believe that it qas based on long experience. I think whatever algorithm he has is crap. He doesn't strike me as much of a mathematician. Just MOs.

Post by: BanditVol on March 14, 2022, 05:56:48 EDT I can't read that because I am suspended from Twitter. :naughty:
The official reason is that I responded to a tweet on the security detail for Mike Pompeo, who is apparently being targeted for assassination by Iraq in retaliation for the general that we killed under Trump. Someone was complaining about taxpayers paying for that, and I tweeted "Yeah we should just let them kill him, because that's a way to look strong internationally#rolleyes". So I am suspended for encouraging someone to be killed. They apparently missed that my response was sarcastic. :dielaughing: I have appealed the suspension. OTOH, (I was suspended yesterday), two days ago Twitter sent me a survey asking me to rate them. I gave them one star, and in the comments I typed "Your CEO is a shroom-swilling idiot!". So...let me open that up to opinions. Which one of these was I actually suspended for? :dielaughing: For the record, to get my account back, all I have to do is delete the "offending" tweet and click some boxes agreeing to play nice from now on, which will take a minute or less. But i want to see what they do with my appeal. In the meantime I can't read any tweets. :dielaughing: I can always just create another account, but that's too much effort for this. I can live without tweets for a few days. Title: Re: I'll get over it by Thursday, I promise. But ya'll are going to have to...

Thus I can read whatever i want. I am just going to let that appeal simmer. Why tweet and give the #badword#s more traffic? fizzle twitter and their fizzleed up CEO anyway. :naughty: Title: Re: I'll get over it by Thursday, I promise. But ya'll are going to have to...
