Message: [QUOTE="MSSportsGuy, post: 2809149, member: 6485"] I've gone back and forth over the past few years about Warlick. It's clear to me something has been wrong with the program the past few years and on paper they should have accomplished much more. However, as bad as they've looked at times they still manage to win a fair share of games and have wound up with records most programs would love. I've watched some games they lost and thought "she needs to go" then would remember later she isn't Summitt and no one else is either. Warlick was given a situation that she couldn't have imagined and appeared to have held the ship steady for a couple of seasons. I still consider UT to be among the top programs mainly due to its history, facilities, fan support and name recognition. Even today's recruits who haven't seen UT in the FF know the legacy of the program. It's understandable she would receive an extension so she can continue to recruit. How long her leash is remains to be seen. There doesn't appear to have been a full blown mutiny and I definitely felt like the team last season had much better chemistry for whatever reason. I don't know what to think about the team this upcoming season. The now sophomore class looked very good at times and not such much in other situations. The new freshmen enter with good reputations and could help them out. This team is young and doesn't have much depth. It could be a good year in Knoxville but it could also be the end of Warlick's time if there isn't a major improvement. [/QUOTE]
