Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[UTJoe]

I said beginning of the year the lack of a go to scorer is our biggest weakness

I gave you a like not because I like your statement, but because I agree with it.

 

[Govolsman98]

I think this is the most frustrating team I've ever watched

 

[InVOLuntary]

Catvoluntary. We gone whup they ****ing asses.

That's CatLinVoluntary thank you very much.

 

[Sleegro]

Trying to find a glimmer of hope in Vol athletics...

The ad leaks seem plugged. Does that help?

 

[tn88volfan]

These refs in the basketball game don't like calling traveling violations.

Bump

 

[IN Jed]

Has Pat Forde always hated Tennessee? Not saying he’s not right at times but he sure seems giddy to take every shot he can.

 

[Smokeytom]

Any given night this team could come out playing Pearl ball or Cuonzo ball on offense. Insanely high ceiling. Insanely low floor.

 

[JCP201]

My son says to me after that, “why’d you have to make me a Tennessee fan? This is not fun.”
Lol
He has a point!

Yes, I try valiantly never to curse-- but they make me curse like a sailor tonight.

 

[Paper_Towel]

Basketball has more games to be disappointed by. At least football only has 12.

I gave up on bball after that awful call on Stokes against Michigan. Refs made it completely unwatchable for me.

Guys....regular season doesn’t matter. Stay in the top 20... gear up for the tourneys. This team is good. Rick just needs to take the handcuffs off and let this team run and out athlete teams like that. We played into ole miss gameplan. They wanted it to be slow and sloppy

 

[VolInDayton]

The basketball team is not a good offensive team. They are pretty deep and atheletic. I'm not sure why we havent seen Barnes but a starting 5 out there that can pickup the tempo a little bit. We are not a good enough shooting team to play the offense we do.

 

[tnhunter 10]

This team just plays bad against zone. They pass too often and don't drive enough.

To make him have humility and thick skin. You’re welcome son.

 

[KB5252]

Ok guys what are the needs of this team, physical presence inside, a creator and scorer?

I wouldn’t say Insanely low floor. The elite defense and talent from KJ and JS keeps it decent

Care to place a wager ?

Are you crazy?! We just ran Kansas out of the gym and then laid an egg in Oxford... my money isn’t touching any sort of bet with this team

 

[LakesiteVol]

About the BB Vols, they don't have a point guard on this team. Kennedy Chandler would make a world of difference for this team. Lastly, if I were Barnes, once they returned to Knoxville the guys would go directly to the arena and wouldn't leave until they hit 100 free throws.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Always enjoy seeing the posters who were non existent after Saturday’s win show up after a lost with their tirades and analysis.
Volnation - cheap entertainment

doesn’t mean their wrong

Guys....regular season doesn’t matter. Stay in the top 20... gear up for the tourneys. This team is good. Rick just needs to take the handcuffs off and let this team run and out athlete teams like that. We played into ole miss gameplan. They wanted it to be slow and sloppy

This is why I come here-- Great pep talks!! We need these as Vols fans.

Rick is driving me crazy with this team. Jaden and Keon are coming into their own a little bit and he won't let them run. He needs to quit worrying about his system and let his freshman play.

Yes. Go to scorer is the biggest weakness IMO

And let’s try not passing the damn ball to the other team with lazy ball handling

This. Before this game and even before we smacked Kansas we were #12 in the NET rankings (the one that matters). #10 after we beat Kansas. We’ll fall to probably #15 which is a #4 seed in the tourney

 

[Orangeredblooded]

You are beyond making a point

I think he was making a point that he believes in, may not be one that others believe in, but he does. Agree with or don’t. No one is changing his mind and he’s not going to change anyone’s mind that disagrees with him. He’s just voicing an opinion that he has. Simple. Message boards and all.

Yes.
