Not having Kyle really hurt the Vols, but that's the breaks. Look for KA to have a breakout year next season.

Alexander's growth could mean the difference between a team that has a realistic chance to win the national championship or another year where we may contend in the SEC but probably not making a bunch of noise in the tournament. He's the best pro prospect on the team and I don't think it's as close as people would suggest.

We rode 6'5 Admiral Schofield and 6'7 (Looks more like 6'5) Grant Williams this year .. we NEED Alexander to take that next step in his development.

Alexander and Fulkerson need to get CONSIDERABLY STRONGER! Grant needs to develop an 18 foot jumper! Bowden needs to get stronger! Bone needs to work on his jumper and overall Tenn needs to sign ANOTHER 3 point shooter w/ Daniels leaving.

Plain and simple with him in the lineup we are going to the elite 8 with a great shot at Kentucky if they are there thats the sad part about this we would of had a great chance at going to the final 4, we might not ever have the same chance at a final 4 just beating a 5 seed at best of making it to the final 4 that's what hurts about this.

Fulkerson has went down hill sense the early season he was playing decent in the early part of the season, but for some reason he went down hill he didn't look like he belong on the court Saturday, with Kyle begin out we didn't have nobody at the rim to protect the rim we missed him on the defense we could make up for the offense plus with the injury being Thursday we didn't have a chance to adjust without him.But on the other hand it took SISTER JEAN and a lucky bounce from the HEAVEN'S for them to win we should have know with GOD on there side we didn't have a chance.:)Even GOD hates TENNESSEE.:thud:

You don’t realize the value of a guy like Kyle until you don’t have him. He was a defensive stopper in the paint and he opened up the low post for Grant on offense. Without him on the floor Fulk and Walker were forced to play a larger role than normal and struggled on defense. A couple of Admiral’s fouls came on plays where one of the bigs should have picked up the help assignment down low. On offense Grant got double teamed all night and we missed Kyle’s .750 shooting percentage and 2-3 easy buckets down low that usually come after Grant or Admiral passes out of a double team and keeps the defense honest on the low block.

Next year !

He went through warm ups and pussed out! He needs to suck it up and get tougher! He sat out an entire game for a bruise after saying he was fine! Are you kidding? Even if he played 8-10 minutes it would’ve helped A LOT! Oh well! The game showed all of the teams deficiencies and what they all need to work on in the off -season! GBO

Almost exactly what I would have posted.

Grant is heavy enough just needs strength.

Same for Fulkerson and Alexande. Actually they both could add 10 pounds as well.

Bone was coming around the last few games.

Bowden needs a swift kick in the rear. He's easily a 15ppg guy.

This is a hot take and one that won't be accepted well BUT let's hope the other players in that lockeroom don't have any similar feelings. If so that is something that will hurt chemistry next year

Not everyone is a Bradshaw.

Walker was subpar against Loyola but Fulkerson was just downright awful.

Alexander was missed dearly.

I think Grant needs to continue reshape his body and get more confidence extending his shot to about 18 feet like Karl Malone. Imagine what losing 5 pounds could do for his explosiveness.

Walker played 18 minutes with 2 rebounds and gave up 5 easy baskets. Somehow he isnt grasping the defense.
Mybe he will come around.
