Little disappointed in our dribble/drive game. Was hoping one of these new comers fill that roll.

We are dribbling then passing, to rim.

Hope Estrella is just a little banged up,would be a huge loss if it's a prolonged injury... The young man has had nothing but bad luck since stepping on to Campus...

 

[franklinpence]

Good grief, he's not Saban. We will recruit just fine.

No way. James Franklin will get every recruit in the eastern half of the US. We may need to move campus west of the Mississippi.

Here's the thing though: we have depth behind Estrella. It's not a season-killing injury like, say, losing your starting point guard 3 games into the season with no backup like Kentucky has.

I was there!




*The year before, when we played at Tejas, was the game I became a Bruce Pearl fan. Jajuan Smith was on that day.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Gillespie is a special player. Wish we had him another year.

Why did the non-binary prospector head out west?








There was gold in them/their hills.

I was there also, and at the Memphis game.

Cannot believe it was almost 20 years ago.

If that’s your comparison then fine. Franklin isn’t all that good.

After 2-3 years to improve the roster, Franklin will have them winning games in which they're favored and losing every game in which they aren't favored.

Maybe so but Estrella is best low post guy we got... Way better than Okpara and Carey...Phillips is a 4 .. Estrella is our best 5 on the team.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Team looks like they're learning to play together. Not concerned by the score. They've played well. Played clean for most part. They may not be best team we've ever seen but they will win some games.

That said, we will def drop out of the polls with this win.

Yeah, it sucks. But it happened.

Drop out of the polls after a win?

Wanna bet?

Yes, we always drop after a win.

Sarcasm at its finest..

[Checker_the_Shire]

I love how this place went from Franklin being a joke and VT being bottom of the barrel, to now all of a sudden he’s college football’s greatest recruiter and we are f**ked. It’s a great hire for VT, but come on people…

Yep. We went to all the home SEC/big games, Pearl's 1st season. UT remodeled TBA and offered a sweet deal on season tickets in the 300 level. We kept them until he got dismissed.


We were on the metal bleachers for the 06 Floriduh game. That was my favorite TN basketball game ever. My wife was 4 months pregnant with our 2nd child and I came home telling her I wanted to name him Dane.

 

[JacketVol]

Yep, and he needs to buy her some clothes. Poor thing constantly posting pictures of herself wearing skimpy panties. It must be a cry for help. We should have started a go fund me for her way back when. On second thought, maybe she was trying to show us her boo

Where boo was put in and a boo came out

 

[Jackcrevol]

Rice is making contested threes. Just s tip of the cap.

Ament has such a smooth shot. Crazy he is that big.

That's awesome.
