Tennessee fans and media are using this butler as motivation. They are calling it bulletin board material.
They tagging all their players and official team account every time lol.They’re taking that quote and running with it lol. Trying to get the fans and players up as much as they can for this game
I love the confidence though, we had so many teams over the years beat better Calipari teams because they came in with that mindset. We are the better team and we are gonna win. We aren’t scared and we will give it our all. It will be a war.Uh oh!
Look, you win or lose. Nothing Lamont said or anyone else said going to mean too much.
Take him over Little Z everyday. Lamont shoots better with a taped on shoulder. Their defense is both top tier though.
If Butler said something untoward I’d get that but this was a nothing sandwichBeing honest here, not a fan of if. If it were Tennessee, a lot of our fans would be saying get this to the locker room too. No reason to poke the bear though. I know they’ll be up for revenge after 2 losses this season but why add fuel to the fire
No I understand it wasn’t anything stupid or anything even close. But having beaten them twice already this season they’ll be after it already. Just prefer to leave out the “we’re gonna win”. Maybe put “we’re battle tested and playing to win” I guess I’m just used to watching too many ufc/boxing matches where the cocky fella gets rocked lolIf Butler said something untoward I’d get that but this was a nothing sandwich
That’s what I’m saying though. It didn’t sound cocky to me. It seems Tennessee people are really having to reach on this one which reeks of desperationNo I understand it wasn’t anything stupid or anything even close. But having beaten them twice already this season they’ll be after it already. Just prefer to leave out the “we’re gonna win”. Maybe put “we’re battle tested and playing to win” I guess I’m just used to watching too many ufc/boxing matches where the cocky fella gets rocked lol
That says it all right there.Tennessee fans are lame.
This isn't Daxter Miles.No I understand it wasn’t anything stupid or anything even close. But having beaten them twice already this season they’ll be after it already.

This reminds me of when Lane Kiffin was UT's football coach. Kentucky actually had the better team but UT still won. After the game Kiffin said in the interview "At the end of the day they are still Kentucky and we are still Tennessee". I kinda liked that to tell you you truth.I remember a couple years back, one of their knucklehead football players came out and said “we don’t lose to Kentucky”. Then they proceeded to not lose to Kentucky.
Same deal.
You are old fella. I’m not claiming it even if I am tooWas that 10 years ago? Man, I feel old.
I still hate WisconsinI think today is the 10 year anniversary of that quote.
