has not only turned the record around at Tennessee but I'm currently watching game and the whole lower bowl of the arena is wearing orange and white Ts in a checkerboard layout...very cool...probably 10-12 thousand fans in the lower bowl.
When was the last time Tennessee was sellling out on a regular basis as well? Avg attendence last year was 11,000 something. This year's attendence avg is 17,500+. That has to be near the top in the nation!
Things like this should also be brought into consideration when naming COY. He not only has motivated his players and has them playing great but also has brought a great atmosphere/fan base to basketball at TN. Who would've ever thunk it! (besides me when TN named him head coach-just didn't think it would be so soon).
