Sounds like Holly has her next record in sight...1st TN women’s team to not make the NCAA tournament. The Lady Vols are the only program who has made every single NCAA tournament since its inception in the 80s.

That has to be the end of Holly-- This is a top ranked recruiting class, and women's basketball has some major duds that make it.

If I'm not mistaken the lady vols are the only team to play in every NCAA tournament.

I feel sorry for her but, it’s time to move on.

I don’t anymore. She is paid a ton of money to continue the legacy that Pat built from scratch, and she knows that because she was a part of it. She is rapidly making a mockery of it. She needs to step down yesterday.

I kinda do but as others have pointed out, if she does care as much about the program as she should, she needs to accept that it's not working and do the right thing.

If I were somehow hurting the fb program, I would do whatever needed for their best interest.
Now UF etc; I'd take every penny they had and burn the house down on my way out.

By memory; Holly - I dunno, awkward silence, sighs, I dunno, we had a good week of practice, sighs...

Love that good week of practice stuff. That was one of Botch's. So you practiced against your own roster or some random guys from the intramural league - and practice was good. The same roster that is losing. Do we not see an issue here? Bad teams never have good weeks of practice, Holly.

This team has no leader, especially no leader at PG. Yet, recruiting is supposedly great with Holly. Recruiting rankings do not win games in any sport. So no, recruiting is not good. She recruited bad shooters, no real point guard, they play half a game (tonight closer to three quarters) which tells you their are lazy, they do not move systematically and consistently on O despite being coached, and they have no transition O as well since they are slow on D. Other than that, they are great.

I would, and thinks she knows. She probably tells herself, in her mind, that she can turn it around next game. Don’t flame me for saying this, I really don’t think it’s about what she gets paid or buy out. I think she is truly lost in how to fix it. Truly sad, job is too big for her.

No one can continue the legacy Pat built. The sooner people start to realize that, the better.

The teams needs a coach. They have the players and the program recruits it’s self.

I cannot claim to have watched every game, but just watching #14 Zaay Green, I know she is just a Freshman, but she has 3 games this whole year where she has shot at least 50%, and I see her going down the court looking like she is playing rec leaugue ball. Is it just me?!?

She may have all the althletic ability in the world, but I don't think it is being coached up one bit. She is being wasted, just like Jones has done with football...We need to get someone in here, before some careers get totally wasted.

Since he was considering Ivy schools, I suspect the degree would be a priority to both Grant and his family? Of course, he can finish anytime and turning down an NBA contract would be a surprise, it could happen. Peyton returned. Then again, Grant could already be in position to get the degree early. Wonder how close he is?

I have it from a good source that as of a few months ago he plans to stay and be here to play with Josiah James. Of course plans change. And of course he could still grad early regardless.

Grant is coming back regardless, I think. But i could see him and Josiah being a deadly combo.
