You guys got the better coach from the Summitt tree. Kellie > McCray. Congratulations, Tennessee. Outsmarted us once again!

UT needs to end the series with UConn

I think it is ended after this game. Holly got it up and shouldn't not a game we should play anymore unless in the tourney. It doesn't help when your trying to get a program going again and that is where we are trying to rebuild and get the top players to recognize us again.

I watched your game today really felt bad knowing where Vince had the program and he left it in good shape. The players look and play different coaching makes a difference.

One good thing is that our Dr. Jekyll is a lot better than he used to be. When we play well we actually look really good. Like really really good. And it looks easy, crazy we can still flip a switch and go backwards though.

No question Dr J is much, much better. Which makes it all the more frustrating that Mr. H can still be so very, very bad, like against GA. And he can emerge anytime, it seems. Beating Mr H back is the prime directive for the rest of the season.

Is everyone ready for the invasion of the boneyard pops on volnation. I will not be able to keep my composure so look over me until next week. Let it begin.

Great job by ladies and coaches today nothing makes me happier right now than beating bama at home but now I will expect it all the time

Dr Jekyll found a place to Hyde

Worst part they have a huge advantage in talent this time. I hope our girls can give them a game tough to match up to their talent level starters and bench at this time in the rebuild.

 

[Volfan2012]

Good thing they sucked at free throws. They had 22 chances to get it right, to our 8. If this game had been close, we would be raising cane about that disparity.

Young Ref was their biggest fan everything was a foul for them.

One thing we have going for us is that we will be the first team with size they have seen. Do think that could bother them some as they have had 0 live game opportunities to prepare for that.

Preview of what Kellie is recruiting with the three ball.

tess can shot the 3 ball so can pucket and justine tthe 65 big from nj 22 recuit.

If Colorado can beat Stanford anything is possible. Colorado doesn't have a top 100 player and they just beat a team of top 20 AA's

 

[ttharp]

Good win, LVs. I look forward to watching the replay.

I think Marta can shoot it also I think you just need to work her for an open look. I know Salary can as well think she has made 3 of 6 attempts this season. Also Striplin can stroke it from out there as well she doesn't shoot many because she plays inside but she can step out and knock it down.

 

[KrazyVolFan]

Anyone can get beat on any given night, we can play with anyone in the country if we stay with our strengths and play hard nose defense. Nobody can take the night off, it's ok to miss shots or get burned but playing half speed or to just hang on is unacceptable and will not win u many games against any type of quality competition

 

[Volfan2012]

I jumped out of my seat when Walker hit that long three. That was the nail in the coffin for Bama that was the total inflation of any hope of making it a game.

 

[Darth_Vol]

So keep playing hard after you get a big lead and good things happen?

Who knew... ?

 

[Chippo]

Saw the scores for the gals who scored
double figures. How did the rest of the
team do??

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Let's all hope our Lady Vols finally "learned" something after that embarrassing loss to Georgia at home. Never let up and always keep that pedal to the metal until the clock says 00.00. As always ...... GBO !!!

[Orange Maniac]

I strongly feel the Georgia game would have had this result if Kellie had taken a timeout in the 3rd.

 

[Coach Jumper]

 

[Volfan2012]

Glad to see Key get 12 shots even though she missed more than usual still ended up 6 of 12 which is 50 percent. I would love to see her get that many attempts every game.

masta and sally do not turn it over much and striplin is a good scorer down low.
