Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Jimmy Football]

If we get Mich St as a 10, as ESPN predicts that concerns me. Clemson doesnt scare me much, theyve got a decent big and thats pretty much it.

Yeah, I don’t want anything to do with a March Izzo vs Barnes contest.

It's notable the people who rush in merrily to gloat when we lose.

So what happens if UNC and Arizona lose today also?

 

[knoxvol52]

I've also noticed this. Aidoo has gotten kinda punked in all our losses except KY. Dickinson - Kansas, Edey - Purdue, Bacot - UNC then State x2, TAMU, and USC all have super physical play in the paint and pushed him around a bit. He's a great player but when he's not playing with physical purpose and "I'm taking what I want" attitude it's hard for us. I think he's arguably the biggest key to our success going forward. Dalton is going to get his, but it might be more important if Aidoo is giving us 15-20pts and 10reb.

Aidoo is a finesse guy nothing wrong with that. Need a Uros type against physical players like the guys you mentioned..

Boy was I wrong.

oh well.

We picked the wrong time of year to play our worst basketball.

Doesn't matter.

No one is putting that team on the number one line after that performance.

 

[Jimmy Football]

I honestly don’t think it matters, because I’m sure the committee would rather have either of those teams as a 1, and we’ve given them their excuse. But it would keep hope alive.

 

[Orangeburst]

They looked bigger, faster and more athletic..that was really a great defensive effort
We looked tired.

 

[volinbama256]

Quite the outing for SEC POTY and SEC DPOTY... absolutely no reason to get beat like this.

Rest up, learn how to be physical again instead of getting bullied the last two games like pusses, pull your heads out of your arses, and go on a streak in the tourney playing like we can play... We have the talent, just gotta show up.

 

[Jimmy Football]

Did JJJ and Vesco really go 1-11 today? That’s not gonna work.

 

[SpringBokVol]

Sometimes the matchup is just terrible for us and that was the case both times we played them and we shot horribly today.

It happens.

Conference tourneys suck so bad.

This team was the best of the SEC all year

 

[JCP201]

Been a brutal SEC tourney for our ladies and men's team. Men simply played blah, and women lost that heartbreaker where the number one team were rolling all over the floor crying due to a buzzer beater. BAMA comes to town for Basevols to start SEC. Need to win!!

I hate that we start our conference tourney so late, anyway. Maybe this is for the best. They've looked tired the last two games..

Noticing that too. Never seen them all year until we lose ugly.

 

[JCVol00]

Horrible and embarrassing today. No way to spin this into a positive

 

[GoodTimeVol]

Horrible and embarrassing today. No way to spin this into a positive

Oh the humanity

 

[JCVol00]

Our team did not put up any effort today, did not show any energy

 

[GoodTimeVol]

If only this team could be like 2022 team oh wait that’s right sec tournaments are meaningless

 

[Jimmy Football]

sec tournaments are meaningless

“Correct!”

“Wrong!”

[knoxvol52]

Bad week in conference tournaments for Barnes and his coaching tree.

SMU got beat by a 13-18 Temple team.
South Florida laid an ass whipping on East Carolina same time Mississippi State defeated Tennessee.

Only one left is Kim English of Providence .

It's one thing to lose close. It's another to lose like we did today. If you can't tell the difference, that's a you problem. Team needs to learn from this and play better. They should absolutely feel embarrassed to lose like that.

I’m probably guilty of this today. I just don’t trust a Barnes team in post season and it was proven out today.

Was not hoping or remotely happy that we lost.

 

[Jack Burton]

Totally pathetic. Better use the next few days to regroup or we’re not making it out of the first weekend. Too bad I talked trash to that UNC girl at work. Regular season Rick has emerged.
