| Can i post in here? I know i don't have the experience but i'm laying myself at the mercy of the pooch, and his forum patrol.
Anyway, We saw the good and the bad were going to get from this team, all in one game. First half we were absolutely awful on offense, especially without Trae on the floor. We settled for bad perimeter shots and ignored the fact that we had a clear advantage in the paint. Second half we saw the good. Trae was spectacular again, as i believe he will be all year, and we saw the role players really shine. McBee, Richardson, and Miller all played well and did their jobs.
Kenny Hall continues to disappoint. I think he needs to be benched for Miller. Make him earn his way back into the lineup. He has the size and we, or maybe just I, think he has the talent. He just needs to play stronger and actually utilize his size. He's a turnover machine because he always brings the ball down and the little guys have a field day on him everytime!
Cam Tatum is a disappointment but i think he took a step in the right direction. He took a few bad shots, but we need him to be aggressive and attack with the dribble. When he floats around the perimeter all game he becomes invisible.
Trae is the man.
Maymon has been a pleasant surprise, and he looks a lot better this year in every way. Hope he can keep it up.
McRae hasn't exploded yet but i think he can. he is going to score in bunches and play streaky defense all year.
Cuonzo has shown me some things i really like. I'm starting to get really excited about this team. Hope we can surprise some people by years end. |

| Those waiting around for Cameron Tatum to become any more than what he is already, are falling behind. | |

I still can't believe how well Golden distributes the ball, all while being the leading scorer, as well.
Frankly, I thought we'd be luck to even be .500. Now, we may still end up there, but at this point, I could see us being in the top half of the SEC. Pure speculation. | |

| Good development so far by our players. I love the motion offense. However, we have a long way to go and think that UT is probably the 4th best team in Tennessee right now.
Let's see how quickly this team gels and which player(s) over-achieve and hopefully have an exciting and successful season. | |

2. Players are developing before our very eyes!
3. Trae Golden is an ALL-SEC player. 11 Assists? Are you kidding me? After posting 9 assists the game before?
4. Richardson scored 11. Development. Development. Development.
4. Maymon had another double-double.
5. The team was tied at halftime with an inferior opponent and stormed back to annihilate them......
6. We're much better than I thought we would be at this point.... | Sorry to be a Debbie downer but do you realize how absolutely horrible the first two teams we played are? | |

And if we take any thrashings there will be those that go off the deep end.
I'd like to see a rematch against Michigan in the second game. | |
