Tennessee vs Duke (Exh) Official Game Thread - 7pm ESPN2

I really wanted Boswell to prove me wrong tonight by getting the start. So far, that's not happened. He's been a trainwreck.

He’s been awful. Maybe this was Rick giving him a chance to try and work his way into the rotation one last time. Certainly hope so, he’s not been good.

Just don’t think he’s ever going to have it, unfortunately. He needs to move on and try to get something going at a mid major imo

 

[Chaz-Vol]

This is why you play high level games like this against top 10 teams especially when they don't count on your record.

Having dudes like Ament and Burg that need lots of reps this will help lot

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Would you take him out?

It’s an exhibition, so yeah. See what your other players can get you.

 

[hbvol1982]

We better start making some shots or we’re gonna get run out of our own building…wait, there’s only 6 minutes left.

He’s a guard that can’t shoot, pass or dribble. Kid has no business playing for UT.

 

[All Vol!]

I'll be really happy when Jimmy Dykes retires.

Boozer may be the most NBA ready freshman that I can remember seeing

 

[tnvols72]

I dont see why JP and Phillips not getting much time and how Boswell getting so much

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Ament also pushing for a double double, but can’t talk about that with Boozer I guess…

 

[vols 30]

Agree, but I don’t think the head coach is treating it like that

 

[ttocswob]

Finally some FT's made.

Correct. Except, Scheyer is going for the W. Rick is seeing what he has.

That's some good positive posting lol

Absolutely unreal that Duke is going to have two NBA ready freshmen in back to back seasons. Here’s to hoping their season ends the same way it did last year, all we can hope for lol

 

[NighthawkVol]

Is Amari Evans hurt? Sorry if it’s already been said in this thread. Haven’t been following.

He’s awful and we are not a serious contender if he’s still getting minutes past December. I hate to talk so bad about him, but he is just embarrassing to have on the court. He does nothing well and still looks terrified every time the ball touches his hands. I regularly defended him for that last season but I can’t do it anymore. He cannot be getting regular minutes come SEC play, just cannot.

Yep. Very advanced for a freshman. Just bullied Okpara.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Boozer has elite floor vision. Like a PG.

 

[Chaz-Vol]

This team need Burg to get learned up quick in Barnes likes/dislikes because Boswell has no business starting for this team if they have March dreams

 

[connor]

Did anyone see that guys eyes? lmao

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

Boozer reminds me of a more athletic Broome

 

[berryvol]

Gillespie loafing there… cmon man.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Why does it feel like Estrella has barely played this game?

 

[vol94]

Imo, Barnes knows what he has w/ those two. Plus, both are coming off injuries.

Boswell hasn’t received much playing time so this scrimmage is as close as you can get, for now.
