I know this is Carson Newman, but this freshman class is outstanding. Nard looked like more of a leader. This team looks a lot better than it did at the beginning of last season.
The mood around here changes like the wind
So true! Some observations:
Do not but KD out front on defense. She will get blown by every time
Do we even run an offense or are we going to wing it like Ohio state?
Defense and rebounding will get better but it better be quick
Love the freshman and how Nared seems happy now
Tell meme to play defense, rebound and not shoot unless a layup
The last thing MeMe needs to shoot is a lay up!! Can barely hit 1 to save her life. LolSo true! Some observations:

No way to hide her because of switches where she gets a faster player on the switch. She definitely needs to work on defense. Also, with a combined 1 for 13 for 3pt shooting night for the team,,,The good: she was the 1 who hit the only 3. The bad, it was her only shot of the game.

I recognized two offensive sets run by the LV's.

The third quarter was the first time seeing all of the FabFour on the floor at once. Jaime was the fifth player...And moments into it, Meme subbed in for Annie.... These recruits are the real deal. All four of them looked good out there....
And I will tell you straight up...Rennia and Evina are equal tradeups for DD and Coop. Rennia is just as much a scorer and her defense is stifling, and, Evina doesn't turn the ball over like Coop did.

The coach is still the same.
True enough, the coach is still the same...But the staff and the players are not the same. Both the staff and the players are taylor made for CHW's coaching style...I too am still waiting to see where this season will go...However, I do feel very confident that if the personnel-traumas and dramas are kept to a minimum, CHW will be able to have the type of year that we expect out of a UT-team and coach.
It has always been guard play that has beaten UT. Even under Summitt. We traditionally don't play a zone which stops guards penetration. We have two very talented guards with speed. The keeping their man in front of them will come with experience. Meme needs to focus on locking down her player and not worry about flash on offense or playing pg. We will have 2 more bigs to keep the post fresh. I believe our defense will be much improved by SEC season and barring injuries we will be a dangerous tournament team.And there is the sour note in the middle of a beautiful song. Just enjoy the win. Dang.
