Jamie Shaw CB for Juke to the good guys

SF has reached twitter now (yes i still call it twitter)

Smh Moose had nothing better to do. Hate it for SF.

You actually quoted the feedback: "Over the weekend we heard that he did not get the kind of feedback that would keep him in the draft."

Was hoping for specifics on what NBA scouts think

 

[oldaaucoach]

How many Final 4s do those teams have in the last 25 years? Yes, this year worked out well but it’s not a one size fit all formula.

Well Tom Izzo has been to eight FFs. Illinois twice. Michigan three times. UT zero. Not sure what your point is.

Need this Juke news to drop like I need air to breathe

Very good chance this is the most hyped team, preseason, of the Barnes era. Gonna be interesting to watch it all unfold and see how well these guys mesh by November.

I just hope they're all as hungry as Dalton Knecht was...

Been my thoughts this whole time, if we’re getting Juke I don’t want a 5th year passing

Exactly, no way do I want a team like Kentucky that has a very lackluster roster currently to end up getting Oweh back and then get a bunch of 5th year players in the portal and end up with a much better team than they have currently.

If we are committed to getting a big with the last spot (good idea), Henderson being healthy would make me feel a lot better about our guard depth. Otherwise, our primary ball-handling guards are/can be:

Hill/Ames/Clark

Really excited that others can handle the ball on the team (Juke if/when commits, Jalen), but damn we are one injury away from not having a backup guard that really knows how to play on the ball/has college experience. I would love to have Troy be available or some veteran guard, but guess we can't have everything. Still obviously very hyped, this team looks awesome!

One thing for sure those open practices will be well attended.

I wonder where it’ll put Tennessee in preseason rankings once Juke commits? Gotta be top 8-11

 

[NashVolDavis]

I wonder where it’ll put Tennessee in preseason rankings once Juke commits? Gotta be top 8-11

We’re at #11 without Juke in ESPN’s “way too early top 25”

 

[MemphisVol3]

I wonder where it’ll put Tennessee in preseason rankings once Juke commits? Gotta be top 8-11

Would not be surprised if we're Top 5 especially if we get another big.

 

[VolsNetClippers2025]

Hill / Henderson / Clark
Lundblade / Ames / Green
Harris* / Scott / Washington Jr.
Haralson / Brown / Lue
Rubin / Bamgboye*

This team is gonna be awesome.

Game vs Florida is gonna be war

With 30 teams in the NBA, guys have a solid shot at getting drafted. Feels like higher and more guaranteed money is coming for both rounds, and the G League could take a hit. I don’t watch much, but it’ll be interesting to see how it plays out.

Florida signed Lithuanian big man Arturas Butajevas yesterday.

I would say the same but a possum has died underneath our house so am rethinking my priorities

And people are saying college basketball has been ruined... I personally love this era compared to the one and done era in the late 00's and 2010's.

Think Ames starts over Lundblade, other than that looks good

 

[InVOLuntary]

Cannot confirm identity of possum, have not gone down there yet but can't put it off much longer

It's @TN-POSSUM . Typical behavior. Sad news.

Definitely top 10, possibly top 3-5. We’re already top 10 in multiple “too early” polls and top 8 in Seth Davis’s. We were getting a lot of national love as an elite contender after the Hill commitment, Juke is gonna be another level if we land him.
