not italy brother

 

[vavolfan6]

stupid by Vescovi, he cant jump 3 inches

That's like his 4th time driving it when there is no hole and no chance of getting a clean shot off.

 

[RAVOL]

Vescovi bad decision. 5 point swing

 

[orange_glory]

Ain’t your game Vescovi. Don’t do that bro.

Yeah I thought the team moto was INAM.

 

[BreatheUT]

Vescovi is a good player for pickup games at the Y but he’s not an SEC caliber player.

I'm not sure it's that as much as the offense has bogged down and besides Bailey there are no open shooters. You start forcing it.

 

[Dougie_D]

Vescovi doesn’t need to drive to basket like that.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Poor shooting has cost us, we shoot anywhere near our typical averages we’re up 6+

Gonna be tough to pull it out.

 

[Bigorange123]

Vescovi sucks. Period.

He doesn’t look healthy. Tan legs, white face?

 

[ndubvols]

Should’ve gone small earlier. If we play them later in the year when springer is back, I like springer, Keon, Bailey, JJJ and pons as a lineup against this team.

 

[1985Vols]

We needed a game were we struggled early this year. Better to have these games now and get better than get shocked later. Lots to learn from this game.

Hope so. I’m a little concerned myself in that Fulky doesn’t seem to be the same player he was last year and Pons doesn’t either on the offensive end. Maybe we will gel but we have struggled in a lot of games offensively this year

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

Game over. Stupid offense, awful defense, Bama came to win.

 

[LordBolton]

Looksnlike this one will be blown mainly due to poor FT shooting. We have missed as many FTs (9) as the Gumps have taken.

 

[peerless98]

Vescovi is a good player for pickup games at the Y but he’s not an SEC caliber player.

CRB disagrees with you

 

[Larkin]

I don’t know, maybe we just got outplayed?

Those 3s falling for Bama is what did it.

Such an odd f’n game, pisses me off that Pons and Scovi never got in a rhythm

 

[vol4eva]

And Fulky, wth was that tonight?

 

[Dougie_D]

Is springer hurt?

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Vescovi is a good player for pickup games at the Y but he’s not an SEC caliber player.

You’re a damn idiot.

 

[GBO18]

We play these fools in Tuscaloosa?

 

[RockyTop140]

Guards aren’t good enough to carry this much weight. Our post players are giving us absolutely nothing. Springer out has definitely hurt. Fulkerson has been basically a non factor.

 

[BreatheUT]

We needed a game were we struggled early this year. Better to have these games now and get better than get shocked later. Lots to learn from this game.

Yeah but couldn't it have been Ole Miss or someone? Alabama will turn around and lose the next game.

 

[brubaker]

Vols getting schooled by Alabama again

 

[RockyTopRiot]

GBO

 

[C-south]

I'm not sure it's that as much as the offense has bogged down and besides Bailey there are no open shooters. You start forcing it.

I’d rather other guys force it. There’s no upside to him shooting forced shots.

 

[VolArmy74]

Our offense and experience are the concerns.

We are a veteran team with great freshmen. I don't have big experience concerns.

 

[JRVOL11]

We play these fools in Tuscaloosa?

Nah
