Agree Mark125, C-LO has the freedom in Tennessee to do what he was recruited to do, and that is to shoot the rock. He doesn't get that freedom if he is in the blue and white, talking about two different coaches and their systems. When Chris plays UK, I will always hope he does well and history has proven that but in the end without a UK victory I am not as happy.
