So my question now is if LSU is close in either of these last two games. Will the SEC tell the refs to help the non-LSU team to try and get a UT v UK final in the SEC tournament?

Vols need to get the 1 seed to make sure LSU and UK are on the other side of the bracket. A UK-LSU revenge game in the semis and a rubber match between UT and UK on a neutral court for the championship would be great BB. SEC and ESPN should both like the viewership and $$$ that would bring.

That's what I was trying to say in my incoherentness. I was wondering if the SEC would "suggest" to officials to help LSU lose a game

Can I get some love for Fulk!? Didn’t do a lot that shows up in the stat sheet but he gave us big minutes with Kyle in foul trouble.
Had a nice block at one point that turned into a transition bucket for us

What Fulk lacks on offense he more than makes up for with his hustle, rebounding and defense. Kid has a motor that just doesn’t stop.

Just to remind you guys, Gonzaga played Arizona, Washington, Texas AM, Illinois, Duke, Tennessee, Creighton, and North Carolina in the preseason. They create as difficult a schedule as they can get. Sometimes teams that are traditionally strong (Arizona, Creighton, and TAM) end up being ******, but these games are scheduled 2 or 3 years in advance. While the WCC doesn't have a second high level team, the conference overall is better this year than others.

With that being said, it's ridiculous to pin an argument for Tennessee not being a #1 on SOS. As stupid as it is, timing of your losses is huge in making tournament rankings. I'm not worried though. Our boys are going to whip both LSU and Kentucky on the way to their first SEC Tourney chip.

Same thing happened to UT with scheduling. You wouldn’t expect WV, GTech, and WF to be as bad as they are. Preseason, UT’s schedule was very strong. Throw in Gonzaga, Kansas, Louisville, and Memphis. Got some bad luck with the first three being so weak.

In the end, Duke, UNC, and maybe Washington are truly the difficult teams that Gonzaga played.

Regarding 5 Star Small Forward Corey Walker

Barring something crazy happening, I expect Corey Walker to end up at UT.

I'd be surprised if a public commitment doesn't happen within the next 48 hours, and more likely sooner. Obviously would be a significant deal.

Brother's n sister's, I'm gettin all giddy and looking forward to this upcoming class. This is the 1st time since I don't know when that we're having elite talent on campus for these Jr days n visits in general. And I don't remember the last time we had so many Cali cruits on campus at the same time and high caliber at that. Looking forward to spring ball and the upcoming season. 🍻 Go VOLS 🍊🍊
