Game Thread: Lady Vols v ETSU, Home, Fri. Nov 7th, 6:30PM, SECN+

If ETSU had even a functioning offense this team would be in trouble right now. Even against a low brow squad this press is still easily broken.

Some lazy passes, some very obvious missed traveling calls, but most of all, the ball doesn't seem to be moving where it needs to right now. Hate seeing post players doubled and not even a look at the shooters on the line. Feels very undisciplined. I know Tennessee is better than this, but it doesn't look like it so far.

I knew she was going to miss that layup! God Almighty this is agonizing to watch.

Also, NOW the LVs get every call!

 

[Coach Jumper]

Coach J, you put my score in wrong. ETSU 49, not 79. Big diff!

the press is going to take time to clean up. kim told us this. idk why ppl think she was exaggerating.

Frustrating watching the lack of improvement at making baskets 4 ft from the rim. We leave too many points on the floor from this area.

It’s tradition passed down from Holly to Kellie and now this squad.

 

[Coach Jumper]

Sloppy basketball so far, score should be 20-0...

I'm at the game.I'll fix everything when I get back

Home teams get the benefit of the whistle.. that's why against N.C. State I didn't freak out, it was a (Neutral Court) wink, wink home game for the Wolfpack.

Nice seeing Mia hit the 3s confidently. Hopefully more to come in this area.

Where was this 3-point shooting on Tuesday?! 5-5 to start the game.

 

[utVolFanInVA]

Cooper out of her mind right now & I like it!

 

[ShortyMac10]

3 ball needs to travel

 

[VolBall09]

When we shoot the three like this it is demoralizing. Man it’s fun when it’s falling. Coopers shot looks so much better.

Lots of posters predicting ETSU scoring in the 40s. We only held one team below 50 points all year last season, and that was TAMU in the SEC tournament (77-37). With our pace it's hard to keep the other team scoring that low, but that would be a great sign and a statement if we did it today (e.g., stopping any breakaway layups against the press).

ETSU on pace to score 20 in this game.

Well, that was a pretty good 4 minutes of basketball!

 

[GameTime]

Why did Civil jump in before the shot?

 

[VolBall09]

I don’t care what any talking head had to say today. This is going to be a dangerous team in March if we stay healthy. Gonna have some growing pains with the freshmen and the press, but as it comes along this team is going to be

Have no idea ...

 

[1reVOLver]

Yum yum. LVs 27. Cupcake 5

I don’t think she was expecting the official to pass the ball back to Barker so quickly and was going to deliver a message to Barker from the coach.

 

[GameTime]

The press looks much more controlled

 

[volnationnj]

Great 3 point shooting (6 of 8) in the first quarter.

 

[brittannica]

Cooper is so impressive thus far this season. We are lucky to have her

 

[glv98]

Surely you jest.
